The (not so) latest deck list I’ve come up with, which is still with the same mana color choice from my previous post, is another take of the potential of the Black Red control archetype in Innistrad Standard. This version though focuses on to abuse Chandra’s fiery pet, the Chandra’s Phoenix. Continue reading

Chandra and her Vengeance
I’m not talking about some back story from the fiery (literally) planeswalker but what I am referring to is a deck archetype I’d wanted to try in the new Standard.

As of now, here is the partial spoiler of Innistrad. Continue reading
