I'm arguing with PL via the Twitters. He says 300 life was standard but I'm pretty sure it was 240. Who's right? This isn't an attempt to be proven right so I can stroke my ego either, if I'm misinformed I'd like to know it.
In the time before 2U/4, tournament standard was 300. It was later decided to drop it to 240. After playing it some more I'd personally set it to 270 for tournament play.
