Combo (460)

Control (84)


Maybeboard

Too weak/unsure how (312)

Too expensive (220)


Everything in the Maybeboard is either slightly too expensive to be budget (above $4) or a bit too situational or weak to count as win condition. Sometimes I'm also not confident on something, so I throw it in there.

Combo win-conditions tend to blend into other categories, because things might be used the other way around. Like how Warstorm Surge can also be a win-condition in aggro, or how Laboratory Maniac can be the finisher for an infinite combo. Go-wide win-conditions are probably the strongest on low budget, but they don't scale well. Combo however becomes significantly stronger the more money you put into it. Especially Ashnod's Altar, Aetherflux Reservoir, Deadeye Navigator and Isochron Scepter significantly boost the power level of every deck where they fit in as part of a combo.
