Magic: the Gathering Standard decks get an update with Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, including those who I think seemed to be ‘forgotten’ in the metagame already. What I am referring to is the Mono-Black Devotion deck, and the last time I checked a deck list was when it was mostly composed of Theros Beyond Death and Kaldheim card components. Seeing a deck that is doing success in the recent MTG Online Standard updated with Adventures in the Forgotten Realms tournament is what prompted me of the potential to become a Tier 1 level again.

Hence, sharing below is the full decklist from that event. I’ve referenced it from this deck tournament results.
