Can You Win this Turn?
Frank’s got a few brain-teasing puzzles—can you figure out how to end the game in one turn?
Standard BFZAER
No Ban’s Sky
This is it, folks! Aether Revolt Standard is solved, and you should be playing one of two decks until Amonkhet.
Brewed Force: Abzan Rallier
Standard may still be a 2-deck format, but there’s room to look for new ideas everywhere.
“No Changes” to the Banned & Restricted List
Wizards declined to ban any cards in Standard. What’s it mean for the future of bannings and Standard? Matt Sperling offers his first take.
A Close Look at Mardu vs. Copycat
Diversity may not be one of Standard’s strong points right now, but the matchup between the two top decks is remarkably intricate.
Channel PMayne – Standard B/G Energy Aggro
B/G isn’t dead. Pascal’s got a build that’s ready to take on Mardu and Saheeli!
The Deck To Beat This Weekend: B/G
With everyone focusing on 4-Color Saheeli and Temur Tower, the deck you need to be mindful of is the one that has fallen off the radar.
Channel Pardee Time – Standard 4-Color Saheeli
See Sam pilot the deck that came out of nowhere to take over Standard!
Deck of the Day: G/W Humans
Humans once dominated the Standard metagame. Many of the same tools are still there.
Black-Green Is Not Dead
Sometimes, all it takes is a little tuning to make a good deck great again. That, and the right metagame.
Deck of the Day: 4-Color Marvel
When you’re casting cards for free and at instant speed, why limit yourself to three measly colors?
Brewed Force: Colorless Eldrazi
The Eldrazi are back in this midrange ramp build that has the power to compete in Standard.
Deck of the Day: U/B Colossus
Between slower Mardu builds and fewer white sideboard cards, Colossus might have a chance to finally break through in Standard.
Channel Reid – Standard B/G Delirium
B/G master Reid Duke pilots his current build of Delirium through a League on Magic Online!
Deck of the Day: Grixis Control
Numerous pro teams tried to get Grixis Control in fighting shape for PT Aether Revolt, but failed. Could this build have what it takes?
Deck of the Day: U/W Cheons—er, Control
This classic archetype serves as the ideal answer to a Mardu and G/B saturated metagame.
Channel Pardee Time – Standard All-In Marvel
Why waste time? Crush your opponent with a turn-4 Ulamog!
B/G Is Out, Saheeli Is In
Just two weeks ago, it was nearly a consensus that B/G was the best deck in the format. What happened?
