Arena Standard - Bant Ramp Ikoria

18 27 15
6 19 7 28

Deck Tech: Very close to old Bant Ramp, but with the addition of Shark Typhoonimage and Neutralizeimage. Early game you try to ramp, then play out powerful cards like Teferi, Time Ravelerimage, Nissa, who and Elspeth Conquers Deathimage. Neutralizeimage allows us to protect our threats and can even prove useful when the opponent has a Teferi, Time Ravelerimage because we can still cycle it! 

 

Sideboard Tech: We're mostly aimed toward Sacdos, Flash, and Yorion lists. We might need to swap Grafdigger's Cageimage to Soul-Guide Lanternimage to counter the new cycling lists that rely on Zenith Flareimage to close out games. I also think we can remove 1 Disdainful Strokeimage because I can never find room to cut for the 3rd copy in most matchups; so if you're struggling and need a spot for something spicy, I'd recommend this change.

Lutri, the

-1 Tamiyo, collector

-1 Nissa, who

-1 Shark Typhoonimage

-1 Shatter the Skyimage

 

This is an odd matchup because the Lutri, the list can vary so much. If they're running more creatures, keep in extra shatters. If they're more combo heavy and play higher cost spells, consider Disdainful Strokeimage

 

+4 Mystical Disputeimage

 

Temur Reclamation:

-1 Tamiyo, Collector

-1 Uro, Titan

-1 Tamiyo, collector

-1 Elspeth Conquers Deathimage

-1 Teferi, Time Ravelerimage

-2 Shark Typhoonimage

 

Unsure about Grafdigger's Cageimage in this matchup, since it doesn't stop Gutterbonesimage. It does, however, stop Woe Striderimage, Cauldron Familar, and Call of the Death-Dwellerimage. I'd say we could trim on another Teferi, Time Ravelerimage, Nissa, who, and a Neutralizeimage for +3 Grafdigger's Cageimage

 

+1 Heliod's Interventionimage

+2 Devout Decreeimage

+2 Knight of Autumnimage

 

Jeskai Cycle:

-1 Tamiyo, collector

-1 Shark Typhoonimage

-1 Nissa, Who

-1 Teferi, Time Ravelerimage

-3 Elspeth Conquers Deathimage

 

Soul-Guide Lanternimage helps in this matchup a ton. I was thinking of swapping the Grafdigger's Cageimage for this deck since it's gotten more popular since the Magic Fest Online. Consider Narset, Parter for this deck as well; she's not too bad of a call for the current meta. I just struggled to find room for her both in the sideboard and maindeck. 

 

+1 Heliod's Interventionimage

+2 Knight of Autumnimage
