Hello everyone! When you’re approaching a new metagame, the best thing you can do is start with what’s familiar and branch out from there. Today I want to go over the decks that got the most from Kaldheim (the winners)…
Hello everyone! Kaldheim spoiler season has officially concluded, which leads directly into the best time for Magic players – Standard brewing season! There are so many interesting cards and ideas to try out, but deep down, I’m just a man…
Kaldheim is fully released and with that, there’s a huge amount of speculation around how good all of the cards are. Well, I’m here to personally tell you that all of your opinions are wrong and mine are right. Ok,…
I have a problem, and unsurprisingly, it’s with Sorquixe. Two weeks ago, he wrote an article about his top 9 most hated card designs of 2020. I’ll be the first to admit, there were definitely a lot of card designs…
Hello everyone! Today I’m coming at you with a super sweet deck that won the Maryellen Goldstein Treatment yesterday, Abzan Snake! When Winding Constrictor came into Historic, I thought that although it was one of the best Standard decks in…
Hello everyone! I’m going to do something a little different and go over a deck that I’ve been doing well with on Best of One ladder, something my lovely Best of One players don’t get enough of. For today, we’re…
Do you enjoy playing powerful decks? Do you like crushing any non-interactive deck? Do you want to be the villain of Arena ladder? Well then I have the deck for you! This isn’t a new deck by any stretch, but…
Welcome back everyone! After some deliberation and my penchant to be an educator, I decided that I wanted to try out a series called “Required Reading”. I hope the name of it doesn’t bring anyone flashbacks to the summer before…
Hello everyone! Over the next seven days, we’ll be highlighting some of the best articles that MTG Arena Zone has put out from this year! If you were ever worried that you may have missed out on a real gem…
Happy New Year everybody! I’ll be the first to admit that 2020 has not been the kindest year to any of us. Despite that, Magic is still going strong as it gave us all something to do when we were,…
Hello everyone! For those who know me well, I am an absolute fanatic for the sacrifice strategies. Just the beautiful mix of aggro, grind, and synergy makes the deck feel very powerful and rewarding to play whether you’re just learning…
Hello everyone! Historic is still the format that is the most relevant with the MCQW coming in January, however, the next set of SCG tournaments are all Standard, and I’ve been asked on what decks I like for that. GW…
The second Historic Shakeup is here and with it, a medley of new decks and strategies to explore! The first Historic shakeup event they held back in June was a blast to play and allowed a lot of new ideas…
Hello everyone! I’ll admit it, I have a problem. My problem is that I can’t stop playing decks in Historic and I don’t want the cure. Initially piloted by Devon (d00mwake) O’Donnell in the Zendikar Rising Championship, GB is looking…
Hello everyone! Ever since I wrote about GW Company, I’ve been playing it near exclusively in Historic for grinding ranked to strong success. I love cool midrange decks and it’s been winning a lot, so I had little reason to…
Hello everybody! It’s the Holiday Season and one of the treats Wizards gives us around this time is the Holiday Cube! Holiday Cube is a cube utilizing a bunch of fun cards from across Arena’s many sets culminating into a…
Hello everyone! I’ve heard a lot of people are struggling to get into Historic, especially if they haven’t been playing Arena for very long, but fear not! You don’t need to use all of your wildcards to get together a…

Welcome back everyone! Today I’m going over a deck that exploded in popularity just over the weekend and has been putting up extremely promising results, Combo. First created by Kai Budde and Joel Larson for the Zendikar Rising Championship, the…
Hello everyone! Today I’m here with a deck scientifically designed to slap creature decks back to the stone age, and of course because it’s me, it has to be a Yorion deck. I’m talking about Mardu Yorion! Everytime I’m on…
Hello everyone! By nature, I’m a spike and all about being competitive, tuning lists, playing against the best and so on. With that, a lot of my content has been geared towards the more hyper competitive scene of Magic, and…
Hello everyone! If you knew me personally, or really at all, you would know I love Magic. I think it’s the best game in the world and I’m very unlikely to change that opinion, but that doesn’t mean we can’t…
Hello everyone! I’ve been having a great time in this Standard format so far since it’s been evolving at a rapid rate. Since the popularity of 8 Shark, I’ve been hounded with requests on making it good again, and I…
Welcome back everyone! It’s been quite a while since I did a Required Reading, but with both Standard and Historic settling down a little bit, it’s time to go back to the fundamentals. Before continuing, please make sure that you…
Now I know what you’re thinking. You want to play a cool new Historic deck, but you can’t give up on Historic’s most broken card. I got you covered. Today, I’m presenting a deck that looked like a meme, but…
Hello everyone! I’ve been really enjoying Historic recently and Kaladesh has introduced a lot of new stuff to explore. However, as the initial hype to try new stuff dies down, people are coming back to a particular realization, a lot…
Hello everyone! Something that my Twitch community frequently points out is how rarely I need to craft cards to make a new deck, whether it’s Standard or Historic, and how much gold and gems I tend to have. There’s a…
Hello all! With the release of Kaladesh Remastered, Historic will be the talk of the town for the foreseeable future. I’ve already tried a smattering of Historic lists, but before I even started, I had a pretty strong feeling on…
When I first saw Esper Yorion, I thought the deck was solid but nothing terribly special. Sure you played some decent cards, but the deck as a whole was kind of underwhelming. However, week after week, I keep getting proven…
You thought banning would stop Temur Adventures from existing? Please! According to Obosh, Clover was only holding the deck back! I’m here with a spicy number cooked up by HowlingMines that got them to Rank #128! Furthermore, I saw Kushiro…
I’m a simple man, I play my creature decks and I win matches, it’s how I roll. However, out of every deck I’ve faced recently, this is the one that’s been giving me the most headache. How am I supposed…
It’s time to go big or go home y’all. I was remiss when Temur Ramp, an archetype I previously wrote about and enjoyed, quickly fell out of favor because it struggled in the faster matchups. Ultimatum ain’t cutting it when…
Do you like attacking the meta’s best decks with something it wasn’t expecting, and have a good matchup? Do you like killing people with cards designed for ? Do you want to relive the days where was unbanned? If so,…
What an exciting weekend! The MPL and Rivals splits just happened last weekend and there were three main takeaways from the tournament. One, Dimir Rogues performed well as expected. Two, Gruul Adventures came out as a secretly good strategy and…
Hello everyone! I’m back again with the deck that goes bigger than anything else you’re going to face, Temur Ramp! Initially, I wasn’t the most impressed by Temur Ramp as I believed it had a really hard time beating anything…
Hello again everyone! Today I’m bringing you a list that I’m very excited to share, as it’s a strategy that hasn’t seen Standard play in quite awhile, GW Aggro! Now this particular flavor of aggro has a +1/+1 counter subtheme,…
Do you like casting ? Do you like playing a 2 color aggro deck with 8 untapped dual lands? Do you enjoy playing cards from Throne of Eldraine because that set in its entirety was pushed beyond belief? Well, then…
Hello everybody! This is an extremely exciting time to be a Standard player right now with: the format feeling super fun and fresh from bannings, the MCQW coming up this weekend, and the MPL splits happening this weekend as well!…
Hello everybody! So I just wrote a guide on Azorius Yorion where I proclaimed it to be the best deck, an opinion that most people I’ve interacted with share. That being said, unlike other past best decks, this one actually…
Hello everyone! Last week we saw another wave of bans following the Grand Finals and the meta has been in a complete flux since then. However, after a week of testing, I can say with sincerity that Azorius Yorion is…
