Hello, i have been doing all game day for 2 years now, and changing multiple time deck, as i sell and buy new cards.
I need some advices about what deck to play for m15 gameday and to keep till september rotation or even after.
the 3 deck id like to build/play are
- boss sligh , because is cheap
- u/r artefact affinity most card are new (but this deck seem it need something more, maybe with next set...)
- blue agro sky team by saito tomoharu, the problem with this is it have mutavault, but i think is the best deck from those 3.
do mutavault will go down a lots?
i think i dont want put much money on those mutavault if it go down too much...

Yeah, agreed, Caligula. Kind of hard to read. Is English not your first language? Forgive me for asking, but what is boss sligh? I am pretty into Standard and haven't heard of it.
Izzet Affinity looks like it will be at least a semi-competitive build, possibly picking up some steam post-rotation, especially if the format slows down a little. I'm not 100% that it will, since they reprinted Pain lands. But we'll see -- it also depends on what's in Khans.
I assume that your third option is a fast aggro type of deck. You really should post some links to the deck archetypes that you're considering so that we know 100% what you're referring to. As to Mutavault , it's up to you. Once it leaves Standard, I think the price will go down for a while. Since the card is used in other formats as well, though, I think it will slowly creep back up. If you only play Standard and don't want them sitting around for a while or selling with a loss, maybe avoid getting them then.

Boss Sligh is a mono-red variant that uses cheap CMC creatures, auras like Madcap Skills and some burn to hit the face quick and deadly, using 18 mountains as a mana base. It is named for Tom "The Boss" Ross and Paul Sligh, who originated the deck.
And now you know...and knowing is half the battle!
G.I.JOOOOOOOEEEE!

Oh, okay. Thanks for that information -- I just didn't know it had an "official" name.
