Intro
Interblock Creep is what my friends and I play at all times and we really enjoy it.
What is Interblock Creep?
Interblock Creep is a variant format which allows any deck that consists of only cards from a specific block to play against any other cards from another specific block. So, for example, a Zendikar Ally deck can play against a Ravnica Esper deck. However, there are a few specific rules to make this format more viable:
1) Every block consists of that block plus the core set that preceeds it (e.g. Zendikar includes m10)
2) Each player starts with 7+x cards where x is the number of blocks newer than the oldest block. (e.g. if 2 players are innistrad and 1 player is Theros the 1 player starts with 9 cards and the others start with 7)
Basically it allows you to play with any deck from any era but slowly encourages you to use the newest decks. It also uses the core sets just because it's more enjoyable to see all the mechanics and it's slightly different than any format online (i.e. You can't netdeck as effectively).
It means that players never really have to 'rotate out' their decks and the variety of decks is tremendous. Also, it still encourages getting the new decks and not just sitting still on some overpowered old decks.
