Magic: the Gathering ONE Standard Deck: Jund Tyvar Invoke | Deathmarked: Magic: the Gathering Iloilo and Other Stuff to Think About

I have been checking again on the recent Magic: the Gathering tournament results posted online at the MTG Top 8 website, and one event, in particular, was the MTGO Challenge done last Feb. 18th, 2023. The top decks were Grixis, Azorius Soldiers, and Mono-Blue but one deck that caught my attention was the Jund Midrange build.

Seeing a Jund version with an Invoke Despair is not uncommon, but utilizing the new cards from Phyrexia All will be One especially the new version of Tyvar as a Jubilant Brawler is what made the list spicy. Another card in the spotlight is Glissa Sunslayer, which is not only an efficient attacker with the combination of first strike and deathtouch, but also acts as a card draw engine and utility enchantment removal ability.

Here below is the full decklist of the Jund Invoke Midrange deck played by maximusdee.
