Ugh, guess someone 's done the deck before, but it doesn't stop me from making another. The main combo is Profaner of the Dead plus high toughness creatures - Dragon's Eye Savants, Monastery Flocks and Jeskai Barricade- to wipe out opponent's side every time Profaner resolves. Securing our victory, our second plan is Assault Formation on the walls mentioned above. As we have many Morph walls, Morph becomes the secondary theme for our deck. Secret Plans, Obscuring Æther and Trail of Mystery, maybe? How good is Mastery of the Unseen in our deck? Also, Morphies are colorless, I think we can give a shot to Ghostfire Blade. What's more, I 'd like to add Rally the Ancestors against Crux and End Hostility. It 'll make a good deck, right? Tell me how it far goes.

If red aggro decks remain popular, we can make some predictions for decks after the release of Magic Origins - it also means the rotation of M15, at which  Stoke the Flames ,  Foundry Street Denizen ,  Goblin Rabblemaster  rotate from Standard. At that time, Monastery Mentor may take the place of Rabblemaster in token decks or Jeskai burn decks. Mentor may should be fine in RW burn decks. I think it's slower than Rabblemaster, if not, why people use the goblin instead of it? If the aggro decks are slower after Magic Origins, I think Ugin has a chance to rise from its current level, maybe back to 18 tix (where it was before promo Ugin swept the market). Blue based control decks use Ugin as one of the finishers. They are now struggling to survive in a standard full of creatures too fast for mass removal to take down or resisting these removals. Months later, they may see more plays and Dig Through Time may rise to around 3-4 tix and stay there before the rotation o...

I saw an interesting wall deck on MTGgoldfish by  RJHendricks. Creatures (28) 4 Jeskai Barricade 0.04 4 Nyx Weaver 0.04 4 Satyr Wayfinder 0.04 4 Siege Rhino 8.00 4 Sylvan Caryatid 1.60 4 Wall of Mulch 0.04 2 Purphoros, God of the Forge 7.82 2 Wall of Essence 0.02 Spells (10) 4 Commune with the Gods 0.04 4 Rally the Ancestors 0.08 2 Assault Formation 1.90 Lands (23) 4 Sandsteppe Citadel 0.04 4 Windswept Heath 13.36 3 Forest 0.00 2 Llanowar Wastes 5.92 2 Plains 0.00 2 Temple of Malady 28.38 2 Temple of Plenty 2.90 2 Wooded Foothills 6.52 1 Caves of Koilos 3.12 1 Mountain 0.00 I think  Shamanic Revelation  is one of the essentials for this kind of deck, as from my past experience, wall decks aren't lack of creatures on the battlefield. I also like the combo of Purphoros, Commune with the Gods and Rally the Ancestors.

Today I rewatched Dawn of the Dead 2005. Why don't we make a Deck of the Dead? Creatures almost coming back to play regularly are: Bloodsoaked Champion 2/1       1B: return it to play if you attacked the turn Den Protector      2/1       Morphy: Return any card form the graveyard to hand Tymaret, the Murder King 2/2 1B sacrifice a creature: return it back to play Marang River Prowler 2/1 2U: cast it from graveyard if you control a  green/black creature Flamewake Phoenix 2/2 R: Return to play if you control a 4 power creature Deathmist Raptor 3/3 Morphy anoth Deck 1 First, I want to try a Sultai deck with Bloodsocked, Prowler and Deathmist Raptor. The deck may also include Soulflayer combo pieces. The list: Sylvan Caryatid  4 Satyr Wayfinder  4 Den Protector 4 Marang River Prowler 2 Deathmist Raptor 4 Soulflayer  4 Chromanticore  4 Sagu Mauler  1 ...

The possible aggro decks with this card are: GW, Mono U , RG, Abzan warriors, GBx aggro , Mono Green, Temur. Let's try them one by one. Firstly, I would like to see it in Mono Blue Devotion  deck. The creature part of a mono blue deck is like this: Master of Waves 4 Shorecrasher Elemental 4 Thassa, God of the Sea 4 Triton Shorestalker / Gudul Lurker 4 Hypnotic Siren 4 Mindreaver / Chasm Skulker/ Stratus Dancer 4 Cloudform 4 Hall of Triumph 2 Bident of Thassa 2 Collected Company  4 11 Islands 4 Temple of Mystery 4 Mana Confluence 4 Yavimaya Coast If we have a Thassa in play and we know about one third of our library are creatures(excluding other copies of Thassa and Cloudform), then it's likely that we 'll get 2 creatures. Depending on the mana combination, it is not hard to realize three more U on Devotion. With 1-2 blue auras/enchantments/creatures on the battlefield, Collected Company ensures us a 5/5 Thassa the next turn. Even if we don't co...

I think some UB optimists welcomes the reprinting of Duress in the new set but I would like to remind them one thing: over the past decade, whenever Duress was reprinted and there was another effective discard spell, aggro and midrange decks with discard spells performed much better than pure control decks. You may go and check the past data of top 8 decks for the real situations. In this Standard, it's likely that a GB deck is splashed with another color so that we get Abzan, Sidisi or the long-forgotten Jund. I 'll first make a GB shell for us to fill in other colors: Duress 2-4 Thoughtseize 2-4 Elvish Mystic 4 Silumgar Assassin 4 Den Protector 4 Rakshasa Deathdealer 4 /  Pain Seer 4 Deathmist Raptor 4 Hero's Downfall 4 Bile Blight 3 Ultimate Price ? Collected Company? Whisperwood Elemental ? Tasigur, the Golden Fang ? Doomwake Giant ? Sidisi, Undead Vizier ? The synergy among the following cards looks powerful, but does it work in reality? Den P...

  It  seems natural to print mana cards for the ease to cast Tarkir dragons, which almost all cost over 5 mana. Sheltered Aerie on a forest can easily generate 10+ mana with Nissa, Worldwaker or Voyaging Satyr in play. But The mana may not be all used on Dragons. Ugin is another good choice and in theory all high mana spells are worth trying. Getting Ugin on turn 8 is one thing but on turn 4, it devours everything! Though we have Haven of the Spirit Dragon to bring it back to life, the best way to build around Ugin is probably adding 4 copies to deck. I 'll keep a close eye on Ugin for the next few weeks and make updates on this post, so keep revisiting this page.
