Vampires God-Pharon's Gift (Rivals of Ixalan)

I don't think an aggro deck needs 4 drops, not to mention cards like Immortal Sun. Aggro, used to be called "Weenie" is all about speed.
But the biggest problem about tribal decks is the mana fixing. If I want to play a fast deck in a secure way, I shouldn't expect much from the 8 fixings we get in this standard. A deck needs to be nearly mono color to survive at an early stage of the game and escalate pressure on the opponent.
So we first choose black or white as the main color for our Vampir deck.


The white side:
BackBackBackBackBack
The black side:
Back
BackBackBackBack
Removals:
Fatal Push [AER]

Support cards:
BackBack
Legion Lieutenant

Realized what you just saw? They are just TOO SMALL compared Merfolk or Dinos. I stopped here and gave up the plan to build a Vampire tribe......


After testing, I gave up. Sorry. Vampires can be good, but not in this Standard.
Going to test more Midrange decks.

GWx Starfield of Nyx Deck

People say Magic Origins is a down-graded set. To me, It feels more like Ice Age then Khans in the variety of card functions and types. Of course, Ice Age was a fun deck, weakness never harms the entertaining level of cards. Starfield of Nyx  is an interesting one. It goes perfectly into enchantment decks evolved during late Theros Standard. Win conditions: 1. Bring Chromanticore into play from grave. 2. Attack with animated enchatments for winning. 3. Bring Whip of Erebos into play and reanimate Hornet Queen. 4. Bring Sigil of the Empty Throne into play 5. Assault Formation + high toughness creatures Removals: End Hostility Banishing Light     Doomwake Giant Defense: Nyx-Fleece Ram Courser of Kruphix Card Advantages: Ephara, God of the Polis Commune with the Gods Satyr Wayfinder Eidolon of Blossoms Gather the Pack Combos: Starfield of Nyx  + everything /  Font of Vigor Ephara, God...

Mono Red Devotion

Will devotion come back in the new Standard? There is no card better than Dragon Whisperer for red devotion. Not only does it contribute RR to devotion but its 1R:+1 ability brings back Flamewake Phoenix ( Ferocious) . I like Flamewake Phoenix. But on paper, it has a promo version. It's likely that it's designated to be printed as a player's reward card( much like what they did on Chandra's Phoenix ). Do you like Ashcloud Phoenix more? Is it better than Thunderbreak Regent? Or reverse? No matter what the answers are, Regent is the most likely a replacement for Stormbreath Dragon after rotation. The list: Mountains 22 Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx 2 or 2 more Mountains Dragon Whisperer 4 Eidolon of the Great Revel  4 Flamewake Phoenix  4 Goblin Rabblemaster  4 Ashcloud Phoenix  2 Thunderbreak Regent 2 Fanatic of Mogis  2 Purphoros, God of the Forge  1 Outpost Siege  2 Chandra, Pyromaster  2 Stoke the Flames /...
