WAR Standard Deck: Gruul Midrange

I had the time to check on the results of the recently concluded Magic Fest in Kansas City and upon browsing the Top 8 decklists, I found a build that looks to be a major change from the previous Red Green (Gruul) Aggro Warriors tribe deck. The new inclusions are the planeswalkers Domri and Sarkhan from WAR and the underrated Elemental creature Living Twister which didn’t even reached a dollar in price value. I have also found that it was the most popular deck archetype in the event.

Here below is the decklist that made the Top 8 played by Micheal Byars.
