I am starting the week with a Magic: the Gathering Standard deck tech for the Streets of New Capenna and the approach I took was sort of a reference from a deck archetype in the Modern format. That deck is the Five-Color Humans and my Standard version is taking some of the new cards from the Obscura Family to power the deck build.

While I am excited to build the physical deck, I am still in search of where to buy the components where the cards were from the previous sets that were mostly released during the height of the pandemic. I have yet to figure out an acquisition solution for this one.

Anywho, here below is the initial or first version of the Obscura Humans Standard decklist:

Maindeck:

Creatures
2 Adeline, Resplendent Cathar
4 Brutal Cathar
4 Elite Spellbinder
4 Luminarch Aspirant
4 Scheming Accomplice
4 Silverquill Silencer
4 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
1 Toluz, Clever Conductor

Spells
3 Kaito Shizuki
1 Obscura Charm
3 Vanishing Verse
3 Void Rend

Lands
4 Secluded Courtyard
4 Hengegate Pathway
4 Brightclimb Pathway
2 Clearwater Pathway
3 Deserted Beach
3 Raffine’s Tower
3 Shattered Sanctum

I might have a deck tech video discussion of this one on my Youtube channel so just stay tuned for it. Like, subscribe and turn on notifications for instant updates.

Wrapping up for now, until the next blog post.
