Deck Guides

Drop a 12/12 trampler on turn two with Phyrexian Dreadnought, then negate its drawback with Stifle or Vision Charm. Counter everything else.

Argothian Enchantress and Enchantress's Presence draw a card per enchantment. Solitary Confinement makes you untouchable. Then assemble the win.

Reduce 20 to 0 as fast as possible. Twelve one-drops, twelve burn spells, and Fireblast for the kill.

The format-defining tribal aggro deck. Goblin Lackey on turn one cheats Siege-Gang Commander or Goblin Piledriver into play, and Goblin Ringleader keeps the gas flowing.

Cycle Parallax Wave and Decree of Silence into the graveyard, cast Replenish, then exile the entire battlefield with Opalescence on the stack.

Counter their threats, drop Standstill, then attack with manlands so they break the symmetry. Decree of Justice closes the game from a clear board.

Hypnotic Specter on turn one off Dark Ritual. Strip their hand with Duress and Cabal Therapy. Engineered Plague kills tribal decks dead.

Wasteland them, Armageddon them, attack with a Terravore that grows a counter for every land in every graveyard.

Mana-deny them with Wasteland and Sphere of Resistance, then cheat Terravore into play with Oath of Druids — a 10/10 trampler from a wasted board.

Cheap red creatures and burn, with Quirion Dryad growing a counter off every red spell you cast. Grim Lavamancer turns the spent graveyard into reach.

Resolve Stasis. Untap with Forsaken City. Their lands stay tapped forever. Black Vise burns them out from a locked board.

Hermit Druid mills your library into the graveyard. Volrath's Shapeshifter copies whatever's on top. Combine with creatures that win on entry.

A blue-black control deck that turns Psychatog into a one-shot kill — discard your hand, exile your graveyard, swing for 20.

Mono-red land destruction. Strip their mana with Stone Rain and Pillage, keep it stripped with Wasteland and Rishadan Port, then win with manlands while they sit on two lands.

Black-green midrange with the format's best catch-all answer — Pernicious Deed cleans up anything, then Ravenous Baloth or Treetop Village closes the game.

Llanowar Elves into Priest of Titania into Gaea's Cradle into a turn-three lethal swing. Wirewood Symbiote bounces elves to untap your mana dorks for explosive mana.

Quirion Dryad grows huge off cantrips, Meddling Mage names their key card, and Psychatog closes the game in one swing.

Discard Akroma on turn one, Exhume or Reanimate her back, and attack for 6 in the air with haste. Cabal Therapy and Duress clear the way.

Storm combo through Lion's Eye Diamond and Ill-Gotten Gains, killing on turn 1-2 with Brain Freeze. Among the fastest decks in the format.

Black-white control built around Vindicate, Gerrard's Verdict, and inevitability through Eternal Dragon and Decree of Justice.

Fast colorless mana into Sphere of Resistance, Tangle Wire and Winter Orb. Tinker finds Karn or Triskelion, and Goblin Welder keeps rebuying the lock pieces.

Contamination turns every land in play into a Swamp, and Nether Spirit comes back each upkeep to feed it. Nobody casting a colored spell gets to keep doing it.

Efficient white creatures backed by Swords to Plowshares. Mother of Runes protects them, Silver Knight walls the red decks, and Exalted Angel flips up to end it.

Strip their hand with Duress, Cabal Therapy and Ravenous Rats, then punish the empty hand with The Rack, Lavaborn Muse and Cursed Scroll.

Discard Arrogant Wurm and Basking Rootwalla for free with Wild Mongrel. Counter their answers. Beat them down with cheap fatties.

Tinker out Phyrexian Devourer, exile your library to make it enormous, then sacrifice it to Altar of Dementia or Fling in response to its own trigger.

Resolve Aluren, then drop Cavern Harpy and Raven Familiar for an infinite loop that mills the opponent or drains them out.

Draw-go blue-white without the Standstill package. Counter what matters, Wrath what resolves, then win with a morphed Exalted Angel or a Decree of Justice at instant speed.

Mono-blue storm. Sapphire Medallion and Helm of Awakening make your untap spells free, then Brain Freeze mills them out on a twenty-spell turn.

Also called "Mad Dogs" — Savannah Lions, Wild Mongrel, and Glory-fueled madness creatures, with Swords to Plowshares for the mirror and Goblins.
