Standard Dimir Midrange Matchups with Mono-Red Aggro

The Magic: the Gathering Arena Gameplay that we have been doing with the team is mainly to playtest our decks in the current Standard format. With the newest set, MTG Foundations, added, we are again forced or rather need to grind daily to acquire the new card components and update our deck builds in the Magic: the Gathering Arena platform.

One of the Standard decks that we have been consistently playing is the Dimir Midrange build. It had improved favorably with the inclusion of Duskmourn: House of Horrors and shifted to the version of Demons, utilizing the advantage of Archfiend of the Dross and Unholy Annex. We maintained our list to be more tempo-specific as it fits well against most of the matchups in the current metagame.

Recently, we have observed that Mono-Red Prowess variance has been plaguing the Standard ranked ladder in Arena. We decided to adjust our deckbuild so we can gain an advantage to the highly expected matchup as we do our daily grinds.

We recorded and uploaded some of the games for review later on and here they are below.
