Sultai Superfriends
Traditional Historic
24 Oct by SoliloquyNow
After netdecking for Historic for this past season, I finally decided to attempt to put something together on my own, pulling in from my favorite wedge Sultai. Sultai has fantastic options for control, and some very high-end planeswalkers, which led me to attempt to build a functional superfri...
[H] Golgari Midrange
Traditional Historic
13 Oct by Chahzel
This Historic midrange deck is a throwback to Guilds of Ravnica standard when Golgari midrange was among the most powerful archetypes in standard. I decided to bring back Vivien and the "Explore Package" into Historic ranked in the wake of the recent Omnath, Locus of Creation ban. The current list n...

Esper Humans
Traditional Historic
07 Sep by Falmotis
Humans, everyone’s favourite modern tribe now in Historic. The plan is simple, through a combination of disruption and low cost threats we are looking to grind out a tempo win, slow down our opponent until we have a critical mass of tribe members to go face. So onto the tribe members. For disruption...
Angels

Mono White Angels because Kaalia, Zenith Seeker is for scrubs :) (what green I dont see any green) The plan is super simple, jam everyones favourite flying ladies and beatdown in the air. The Bishop of Wings and the Soul Warden act as early game plays and the nut draw of warden into bishop into Resp...

Oh Boy, It's Golgari Company
Traditional Historic
15 Aug by ILike2Lose
The Introduction So... we have Amonkhet Remastered now. That means we have Rhonas the Indomitable and Collected Company. Yeah... you can probably guess what deck I was going to make. Collected Company is just straight gas, and the addition of Rhonas makes green-based stompy decks a thousand times be...
Wildfire Extinction
Traditional Historic
07 Aug by jankyardmtg
This deck has gone through a great deal of evolution ever since Truefire Captain came on the scene in the fall of 2018 in Guilds of Ravnica. After someone pointed out the interaction between the Captain and Ixalan’s Star of Extinction, I have been in love with the combo. It’s a simple combo, r...
Izzet Prowess
Traditional Historic
30 Jul by SasquatchSenpai
Hello and welcome to another kick of Izzet Prowess. I most definitely have a problem at this point.Well, spell slinging is fun. And when your creatures benefit from said slinging and swing for a ton of damage, it's even more fun! This deck is bringing together 2 archtypes we've seen before, Prowess ...
Nicol Bolas' Goblin Exterminator Service
Traditional Historic
29 Jul by limekiller70
Well, I continue my quixotic quest to try and make a working Grixis deck. (because Dragons, I guess) Yes, I know the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. So, lets try Grixis again! In my most recent games of Historic that I...
Sultai War-Dragon
Traditional Historic
27 Jul by UnReaLz_TV
Hello MTG Historic Community, New Banning's are here and Temur Reclamation is gone and also little Teferi, so i think this deck will be really good if the meta is fixed. But now it's really a pain in the ass because, every round i&n...
CoCo Stompy
Traditional Historic
10 Apr by reskar
Build idea: This is a port of the pioneer golgari stompy deck that has some influence from my historic play. The primary focus of the deck is to ramp on turn 1 and start dropping threats on turn 2 that just keep hitting. I have found it's very important to mulligan aggressively to get a mana ...
Pinball Wizards
Traditional Historic
18 May by Hydrothermia
Introduction I can't take most of the credit for this deck, October of last year Merchant (Youtube/Twitch) made a video about a zero rare Beamsplitter Mage deck. It was created prior to Ravnica Allegiance and War of the Spark sets had been released. I feel like this needs to be revisited, but...
