This will probably be my last Standard update ever.

StuBi and I both played this deck a couple of weeks ago at FNM.

He came fourth and I came fifth. I played against two Control decks, and Sideboarded poorly.

From memory he won two games, lost one game, and tied …

This deck hasn't seen much play as FNM hasn't been firing at our LGS.

Effort is being spent on promoting other TCG like DBZ, and Star Wars™: Destiny.

Keyforge (which I enjoy better than Magic) has also taken some of the focus away.

Tonight, for example, only three people showed …

I FINALLY got around to building this deck.

In fact I made StuBi a copy as well. That way I don't need him to have to describe the weaknesses or strengths of a deck I've built just for him.

I'm not going to write a full match report, as I …

I made some changes to this deck before a 2HG game I will be playing with friends.

The two decks we will be facing both have decks that load up on +1/+1 counters, so I have put some board wipes in.

SCORE: 4 | 21 COMMENTS | 1629 VIEWS | IN 4 FOLDERS

This deck has been PLAYING how I want it to but not WINNING for two reasons:

  1. Other decks have gotten their strategies together better. I have been beaten by an aggressive deck and a deck that escalated quickly with +1/+1 counters.

  2. One of the people in …

This is the first time I've played this deck since a major overhaul, and the first time I've played Standard in months.

Here's a run down of the games.


2-0 Merfolk

In my first game I got Traxos, Scourge of Kroog on the battlefield early, with Voltaic Servant

I beat Merfolk 2-0, made some silly plays, and had a bad second game draw against another Merfolk deck, and lost 0-2, then I won 2-0 against Red Black Control.

Tied for second place, and ended up 4th on the count back.

Not bad for a first outing.

Had a really bad night at FNM.

Draws went against me all night. I only played against decks that were tough for mine to beat. Made a really costly mistake which lost me the first game I played.

I was REALLY tired. Probably shouldn't have played.

Venue was back at …

NOTE: This tournament was played with an earlier version of this deck, so the cards mentioned will be slightly different.

Tonight the field was very strong at FNM as everyone was practicing for an upcoming PPTQ.

I decided to play this deck instead of Worthy Minotaurs, as I felt like playing …
