Teferi Control
Standard BO1
26 Jan by LostInThought
Introduction This is my take on CGB's Trawler Control. I kept finding myself running out of cards with the original version so I made a few changes to better fit my play style. Omen vs. Tome In CGB's original version, Dream Trawler is the only card that offers card advantage. ...

Kaldheim Grixis Discard
Standard BO1
22 Jan by das@das
This is a very speculative deck considering Kaldheim isn't yet, but when went to sleep last I couldn't stop thinking about all the fun and absurd things you could once Kaldheim hits standard. This is one the decks I was thinking of. Gixis Discard. One of my favorite archetypes ever. No...
MYTHIC 95++ The Long Bright Dark-Z FINAL
Standard BO1
21 Jan by Mulconaire
This deck is the definition of masochism in the current standard format. It is the Dark Souls of Magic Decks in current standard. The idea of the deck is to suffer, then suffer, then suffer some more, then breathe that ever-so-exquisite sigh of relief when you reach the light at the end of the tunne...
Hasty Izzet
Standard BO1
20 Jan by Titanovix
Deck Update 1/25/2021 A big thanks to stormwraith, the channeler is a definite upgrade from the tome, it only let me down once, and that was because of a serious flood. A couple of deck tips to anyone that plays this. If you draw two lands and a spikefiled hazard, I would definitely hold the hazard,...
Abzan Yorion Mill
Standard BO1
19 Jan by Jiroxys
Like other Abzan Yorion decks, this deck has some late-game tricks up our sleeve. Unlike other Abzan decks, milling out the opponent is one of them. Lurrus of the Dream Den and The Binding of the Titans combo together. Whenever you pull out Binding, each player has to mill 3 cards. Used together wit...
Dimir Mill Tempo
Standard BO1
14 Jan by MrQirn
This is not your Mom's Dimir Rogue's deck. Isn't this just worse Dimir Rogues? Heck no, we're trying to accomplish some pretty different goals despite having some crossover in the cards we play. Mill & Tempo Unlike Rogues, this deck is completely committed to Mill as its win condition (although ...

Standard BO1
17 Dec by HappyCamper
This deck is a lot of fun to play and really focuses on the interaction with Terror of the Peaks with Genesis Ultimatum. Early Game As a midrange deck that is trying to go "over the top" later in the game with Genesis Ultimatum the focus early is on your three adventure creatures with the innkeeper....

This Standard Bo1 deck uses Peer into the Abyss to dump all of your combo pieces into the graveyard and Eerie Ultimatum next turn to drain for lethal.

Blightfang Machine Gun
Standard BO1
29 Oct by EinarOfBC
Trying to abuse Hooded Blightfang. It's a super fun card to build around. The goal here is obviously to get a few cheap deathtouch units out followed by as many Hooded Blightfangs as possible. Top it off with a Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, maybe a stack of Marauding Blight-Priest and sw...

Golgari Control
Standard BO1
20 Oct by kronozord
Main Deck As all control decks the main objective is to shred the opponent hand and field and to do that decks packs a buttload of removal. Heartless Act and Bloodchief's Thirst will help you survive early on, and if you don't hit creature removal you can target the hand with Agonizing Remorse. Some...

Standard BO1
16 Oct by s4uce
How to Pilot: The most important thing is trying to identify what your wincon is as early as possible and play the entire game structured to that, even if it feels like you're wasting resources on the way. There are some natural wincons in the deck: Ashiok, Ugin, Crawling Barrens, Lochmere Serpent, ...
