First Tournament decklists post-Oko ban

What will the Meta look like with no Oko, Thief of Crowns? This and next week we are trying to get an answer to that question by hosting two large Standard Tournaments with Oko banned! Yesterday we held the first one and as expected we saw a lot of diversity in the decks. With 80 players, we are going to take a closer look at Top 16 in his article. Out of the sixteen decks, eight of them had green as one of the key colors in the main deck. Surprisingly no one was running Gilded Goose in the top 16.

If you want to have a look at all the decklists you can check out this link to the Tourney: AetherHub Community Tournament 9/11/2019

Signups for the next tournament can be found here: 

AetherHub Community Tournament 9/11/2019 Oko Banned

And now let us look at the top 16 decks:

1st. thenerdysteve

Steve took 1st place with BG Adventure, the wincons Liliana, Dreadhorde General and Vraska, Golgari Queen are the main wincons of this deck. Noxious Grasp in the mainboard paid off with only one deck in the top 16 not having any green of white cards in the main deck. If you have not played against Rankle, Master of Pranks yet, expect to see a lot of him when Oko leaves, he is a game stealer!

 Simic Flash with a dash of White for Angel of Grace, a nice choice from KillaDub, can turn a loss into an instant win!

4th. Boulderelf

 A very cool Control type deck using Dance of the Manse! This is a deck that takes you completely by surprise. It makes you wonder what the heck your opponent is up to playing cards like Guild Globe and Golden Egg. Only to turn curiosity into admiration when you get slapped across the face by the Dance!

5th. Magicfeather

Aggressive but more like a midrange deck, Magicfeather went for an interesting inclusion with Oakhame Adversary, targeting green decks. Together with Adventure synergy, they were able to outvalue their opponents. A difficult deck to navigate with a lot of sideboard choices.

6th. wulibo

Yet another unique deck and the first mono-colored one, Monogreen Stompy has been with us the last couple of sets silently lurking in the shadows. It drops by every now and then and snags some top spots in Tourneys.

8th. MTG_Arena_META

The second Fires deck in the top 8, and going in the opposite direction than the other Fires deck this one is built around strong creatures. The flavor here is really cool with the Knights Cavalier of Gales and Cavalier of Flame appearing beside Kenrith, the Returned King
