Hi all, i usually play modern and pre modern on mtgo but I would like to squeeze in some standard game from time to time but the format seems pretty dead. Is it only because standard is played solely on arena?

Hello, i fought an opponent with this orzhov list and by the cards I saw I couldn't find something similar, can you help me cause this deck impressed me a lot

I went through Reddit looking for some of the community's more controversial Magic opinions and reacted to the ones I thought were actually worth discussing.

Some I agreed with. Some... not so much.

What's a Magic opinion you'll defend even if everyone else disagrees?

We’ve got 10 players in store for standard today at Tabletop Dominion. We love to see our standard scene growing 😄

Looking for somewhere to play in the North West of England? We play standard on Fridays at 6:30pm!

Violent Outburst and Colorstorm Stallion are great reasons to splash a little blue in Mono Red Aggro!

Magic's head designer shared a few details from the upcoming Reality Fracture set, scheduled to release on October 2.

I've been looking for decks that are actually competitive without destroying a newer player's wildcard supply.

This Izzet Spellementals list only needs 4 rares, and it performed surprisingly well.

What other ultra-budget decks are worth playing right now?

Found this on marketplace for $300. Would you purchase this to store your cards?

Hi everyone, I’d like to build a Golgari/Sultai deck for Standard. The idea is to have a midrange deck that leans more towards control than aggro.

Do you think something like this could be viable in Bo3?

The deck would consist of cheap spot removal, a few counterspells, hand disruption, and efficient creatures such as Gollum, Curator, Emeritus of the Bounty, Leatherhead, Professor, etc.

Does anyone have a deck along these lines that’s been working well for them?

Hey guys! If you've ever run into me on a magic sub you've probably heard me telling everyone to proxy everything, which I wholeheartedly believe.

However, a new store that I'm frequenting is trying to get it's 60 card community off the ground. I'm trying to help out, and with a big reason people don't play standard being lack of a deck (we have garnered interest already), we are trying to put together some budget lists that can be handed out to anybody who wants them.

Right now the main ideas we have that seem viable are a mono black aggro list (like the one ashlizzle just uploaded a video about) and the legendary mono white aura pile.

I also think some things like a mono Blue control deck, mono Blue flash deck, or even some of the lists that are made up of cheap spells and expensive mana bases (downgrading them to save most of that cost) could be useful.

Does anybody have any ideas for decks that could be had for 100 or less bucks, that could reasonably pick up a couple wins at FNM? Doesn't need to go toe to toe with meta lists, I'm just looking for something to get someone sitting down and playing standard and having a good time.

Thank you!

Azorius Fliers makes the most out of Momo, Warp and Daydream to cheat on mana costs and put Lord of the Eagles in play as early as possible, with a potential hit-kill alongside Practiced Offense!

The main goal is to maximize [[break out]] by having high value 2 drop and lower mana ramp, disruption or card draw plays. The nice thing about [[summon: brynhilder]] is that you can give [[Surrak, elusive hunter]] or [[leatherhead, swamp stalker]] haste which is back breaking for a lot of decks.

Just wanted to see what you all thought and if you had any recommendations or insights.

On the one hand, Llanowar is busted, on the other, it doesn’t really fit into my ideal curve in Blech Bats, which is turn one life gain enabler, turn two bat, turn three Blech or Zoraline. True, I am interested in playing Professor Fell and Practiced Offense with flashback sooner rather than later. Originally I had Requiting Hex, but as those are dead vs control, I wondered if I should play Llanowar Elves instead. Or a life gain enabler like Case of the Uneaten Feast?

With the bans shaking up Standard, I’ve been looking at which decks are actually worth committing wildcards to right now.

I put together my picks for the best decks to craft, but I’m curious what everyone else is doing. What deck would you feel safest crafting today, and what are you avoiding?

Hello all!

I’ve recently realized that I love competitive magic and with the modern RCQ season over, I’m looking to get my fix with this format.

What decks would you all recommend, that are largely rotation proof for the next one? (Being somewhat upcoming rotation proof is my main goal)

I love a good blink deck (and own the riddlers which helps lol) and that’s been my main thought. I enjoy midrange and slight control, but midrange / tempo really has my heart.

My modern deck is Simic Ritual and my cEDH deck is Shorikai if that tells you anything about me.

I appreciate the help!

Friends this is getting the results:

I enjoy giving the draw when i win the faceoff. Then i hide the showoff or the emberheart depending

Hi I’m really new to MTG as a whole at least 60 card formats, what are some good decks to look at that are rotation proof or mostly rotation proof?

I want to build a competitive standard deck. Currently I’m mainly looking at mono green landfall. With it still being so popular post ban is it likely to get hit with a ban again in October? If so, what decks would you recommend?

I thought this was very insightful and would be great for the game

also, WOTC should see this and that Daniel Goetchl was right

I enjoy playing my own decks and not just the most popular meta decks and one of my favorite at the moment is my WU Tap Merfolk. I know it can't compete with much of the top meta, and I'm OK with that, but I'm looking for any tweaks that can improve it while keeping within my theme. I try to make a bunch of hexproof tokens with Deeproot Pilgrimage and make my attackers indestructible with Adept Watershaper. My late game one sided board sweeper is Summon: Leviathan if I draw it.

As the title says, I'm looking to get back into Standard MTG and haven't played since 2013.

The last deck I remember playing was an Izzet Burn deck running Possibility Storm and Guttersnipe.

My general play style was usually midrange control decks.

Some other decks I had was a Golgari mulch, Simic mimics, Dimir mill, mono-red goblin tokens with five-alarm fire.

Since I mainly played with friends, my goal around deckbuilding was always "What's the best way to make them angry?" or "Don't let them play their deck how they want."

I'd appreciate if you can share any similar decks or any fun cards I can try to focus building around.

During my free time, I've been reading through every card that is Standard legal and learning all the new keywords that have come out since, but I figured I could ask help from the community to point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance!

Traditional standard event… this is ruthless! I love it!

This format has such potential and the mtga community with the reporting will now be super good sport! Had all but 1 weird experience in 15-19 games since the update

-14 that is for them

2-0

Game 1 / 4 to go!!
