As we all know and aware of in the current Standard (unless you are living under a rock), Blue White Humans has been one of the top decks in the meta. Even with the popularity of the other archetype in its colors (the Delver Blade), it is still the deck choice of most players who’d want to play aggro.

Some Deck Archetype Suggestions
While on the plan to eat last night at the Mongolian buffet at Centennial Hotel, I decided to bring with me a pocket notebook and a pen as to note down some things while enjoying the food. As my nature being a Magic card addict, I’ve decided to work on some more deck ideas for the current Standard. Continue reading Some Deck Archetype Suggestions
Deck Tech: U/W Shrine Control

After trying out the artifact in Green White Tokens, I immediately knew its potential, waiting to be explored in Standard. Continue reading Deck Tech: U/W Shrine Control
Deck of the Week: Grixis Control

For this week, I’ll feature the deck that got 1st place in the Cruise Qualifier in Indianapolis, Indiana last March 29. It is a control deck based on the color of the Grixis shard (Blue-Black-Red) with the almost forgotten Demigod of Revenge as the bad a$$ beater and win condition. Here’s the decklist piloted by Matt Owens. Continue reading Deck of the Week: Grixis Control

This week’s deck feature is a Magic: the Gathering Standard take of one of Magic’s favorite decks: Mono Black. It was created by Jim Stafford and got 7th at State Championships 2008 in Wyoming. The list uses the powerful black creatures in Standard like Ashenmoor Gouger and Demigod of Revenge, and spot removals like Unmake and Nameless Inversion. It also uses Dusk Urchins, which served both as a beater and card drawer source.
