I built a last-minute brew deck for the first Iloilo Gameday held last Saturday at Rei’s Place. Initially, the deck that I planned to pilot was the Sultai Control list that I found in the list of top-performing decks during the Aether Revolt Pro Tour but due to the card constraints with the Jeskai combo build, I decided to give way to my Blue components so that the deck will be completed.
The Red Black lands were vacant at that time so I have thought why if I substitute Blue with Red, while doing the same strategy? I ended up building and playing this list below:
