Hands-Down The Best Deck In Standard

Standard BO1

09 Sep by Jiroxys

How can we make mono-black even better? While also packing enough heat to destroy mono-black midrange?

Splash white and green.

According to WotC, the core colors of each wedge have officially changed to match their Ikoria counterparts. Abzan's core is now black, making the oppressiv...

🧠MYSTIC PESTS - high IQ anti-aggro

Standard BO1

05 Aug by MrQirn

Mystic Reflection is an incredibly good card that I think many are sleeping on. It can act as:

1) Removal (turning your opponent's entering creature into something weak, like a 1/1 Pest token)

2) Copy the best thing your opponent controls (for when you're behind)

3) Copy the ...

Anghell

Standard BO1

22 Jun by BEARDLYBEAST

 This deck to this point, is my final form of my angel sacrifice deck. It takes a new spin on the angel sacrifice in the way of the legendary angels. I thought about using Mirror box, to be able to cast multiples of them, but I remembered the true purpose of the deck. We want angels to in ce...

Abzan "Shigeki Soul" Control

Standard BO1

07 Jun by Jiroxys

What is Shigeki Soul?

Shigeki, Jukai Visionary + Soul Transfer

This combination has been flying under the radar for some time, and it is without a doubt one of the nastiest combos to loop Shigeki with.

But what about Colossal Skyturtle?

Efreet Bombardment - Ladder Ready.

Standard BO1

05 May by nfluxpk

Back with Another Prismari Discard style deck, this thing is ladder ready and Bo3 Playable with a plausable sideboard suggested. The main weakness this deck has is to green stompy type decks, so Burning hands can be a clutch swap.

Standard BO1

04 Mar by Jiroxys

Overview:

This is a modified version of Sonio's Abzan Spells deck. It is, bar-none, the best Abzan deck there is in Standard. As well as the best Abzan deck we've had in almost a decade. Sonio went 3-0 in Mythic taking him from #40 to #30. Last season I blasted from P...

Orzhov Go-Face

Standard BO1

27 Feb by Shlop

Recently Orzhov Midrange decks have risen to the top of the metagame, which has been very exiting for me since I've been brewing Orzhov since rotation, and before the banning of Alrund's Epiphany and Divide by Zero, Izzet turns and to a lesser extent other control decks singlehandedly prevented O...

Fading Hope broke me. It was a blast playing Orzhov Midrange with Henrika Domnathi and Liesa, Forgotten Archangel until I was face-to-face with Izzet which spent 1 mana happily answering all my creatures until they hit their 8th land drop and won by default. My ego couldn't take it any longer so ...
