Magic: The Gathering aggro decks are moving to dominate the local MTG Iloilo metagame with the top finishes in the recent weekly Standard tournaments at Pro Reis place. Several current aggro deck archetypes in the metagame excel at putting early pressure on opponents, highlighting fast games, and quickly putting their opponents’ life totals to zero.

Their sideboard plan is also prepared in which they can shift the strategy to handle the matchups with midrange, and control decks as well as other aggro decks.

Two Standard deck archetypes to highlight from last weekend’s Saturday Standard tournament are Boros Convoke and Mono-Red Aggro. Their consistency is a plus in having to win games quickly and efficiently. Even with the sideboard preparation against them like cheap mass removal (i.e. Path of Peril, Temporary Lockdown), and life gain card effects, they still would able to prevail with enough damage output.

Here is the result of the recent Saturday Standard tournament held at Pro Reis Place, Iloilo City last June 8th, 2024.
