Hello everyone! With Strixhaven on the horizon, many want to know what the hottest new brews will be with all the new cards. That’s unsurprising given that brewing decks is probably my favorite thing to do as a Magic player.…
Hello everyone! Today, I’m bringing you 5 new aggro brews using the new Strixhaven cards! I didn’t realize immediately, but due to both Red and Green sadly lacking good aggressive options, all the decks I made today are base white.…

Hello everyone! Believe it or not, I’ve crossed 100 articles on MTG Arena Zone! Woo! I can’t thank everyone enough for reading my content which allows me to do this every day. With that, I want to give back the…
Hello everyone! Today we’re going to go over the latest iteration of the classic Yorion midrange archetype, 4 color. Realistically, this is just Esper splashing for one card, but that makes all the difference in the world when you have…
Hello everyone! Do you miss Uro in Historic? No? Literally nobody. Huh, well ok. Do you miss playing Sultai then? If so, I have the deck for you! Sultai Ultimatum plays somewhat similarly to the Sultai deck of old, but…
Hello everyone! Today we’re going to talk about one of Standard’s many Adventures decks, Temur Turns! Temur takes a different approach to the Adventures shell as instead of being a fast deck with a strong engine, this list looks to…
Hello everyone! Today we’re going to talk about a deck I thought was a meme, but ended up being a dream, Angels. Angels is a deck that utilizes the many life gain cards across Arena’s history to turn into a…

Hello everyone! Now that the MPL/Rivals Weekend has come and gone, a lot of substantial meta shifts will happen on Arena ladder. Players take innovations from Pros extremely highly (as they should) which will reverberate through the ladder over the…
Hello everyone! Today I’m here to bring you one of Standard’s newest Tier 1 decks. It’s big, it’s mean, it’s a combo killing machine, it’s Naya . All the credit to the concept goes to cftsoc for pioneering the idea…
Hello everyone! Today I’m buddying up with my good friend and excellent streamer, Sorquixe, to bring you our opinions on what’s going to happen during the MPL/Rivals League splits this weekend. Since we are both competitive by nature, Sorquixe suggested…
Hello everyone! With the Mythic Invitational Qualifier tomorrow, I think it’s prudent to talk about the decks I’m thinking about bringing to the event. I’ve made my decisions on two main criteria: How good I think the deck is inherently…
Hello everyone! Today I’m bringing you the newest version of a deck that hasn’t seen much play since Ikoria, Cycling. Cycling saw super brief success back in Ikoria when Jeskai Lukka was the most popular deck, but fell off quickly…
Hello everyone! I’m here to talk about one of my favorite topics in all of Magic, metagames. Reading and predicting metagames is one of the most difficult yet one of the most rewarding aspects of constructed Magic. I’ve seen some…
Hello everyone! I’m back with an update to one of the best rags to riches stories of Kaldheim Standard, Monored Aggro. No matter how good or bad the deck seems to be, many players naturally flock to Monored for its…
Hello everyone! Today I’m excited to talk about a deck I’ve been trying to make work for awhile, but finally have the right metagame to do so. I’m talking about everyone’s favorite pseudo-control deck, Jeskai . Jeskai plays similarly to…
Ding dong the witch is dead… Again! Uro has plagued Historic for far too long and I’m more than happy to finally see the last of that egregious design mistake for a long, long time. With that, these are the…
Hello everyone! Today I’m going to go over my build of Sultai Ultimatum. This deck is extremely powerful as resolving a single copy of can pull you out of so many spots and the Ultimatum package doesn’t even take up…
Hello everyone! Today, we’re going to discuss a deck that I predicted could be a real break out in Kaldheim Standard: Temur Song. With a Combo Plan A and a Strong Plan B, Temur Song actually has some real chops…
Hello everyone! It’s about time I made a deck guide on easily the most popular deck coming out of Kaldheim, Izzet Snow. I was hesitant at first since I firmly believed the deck wasn’t very good, and in a lot…
Hello everyone! If you know me well, I have a very astounding love/hate relationship with Mono Red Aggro. On one hand, Mono Red Aggro is one of my, if not my favorite, archetype ever. I play it when it’s good…
With the release of any set, every serious player tries a whole slew of decks looking for the ones that will stand out above the rest resulting in an extremely turbulent meta. When you’re trying to parse what’s good in…
Hello everyone! Today I’m bringing you the Kaldheim evolution of Gruul Adventures, Naya Adventures. With the introduction of , a card I thought was seriously underappreciated in the spoiler season, Adventures has it’s back and it couldn’t be happier. I…
Hello everyone! Today we’re going to talk about a card that’s near and dear to my heart, . For whatever reason, despite Winota being one of the best cards in Standard, she sees extremely little play overall. Maybe people got…
Hello everyone! Let me tell you something, it’s hard being right 100% of the time, a real burden you can say. In my Top Ten Favorite and Best Brews, I slated this neat deck as the number 1 slot on…
Hello everyone! For the final article before Kaldheim’s release, I want to do a wrap up of everything I wrote about so far. I went over the Aggro decks, the Midrange decks, and the Control decks so any type of…
Hello everyone! A few days ago I wrote about aggro decks, then midrange decks, now it’s Control’s time to shine. It’s kind of ironic that although Control is the archetype I tend to play the least, my largest claim to…
Hello everyone! A few days ago I wrote about 5 ways to get Aggressive in Kaldheim Standard, but don’t worry Midrange players, I haven’t forgotten about you. Beyond Food, there wasn’t very much representation for midrange decks in Standard as…
