Explorer Decklists (December 2022)

Explorer Anthology 2 was released on December 13, 2022, and players have had a week to see if any of the 25 cards have impacted the format so far. Since this is just regular Bo1 Explorer, the easiest way to find a deck is to look through our Tier List or deck database to find the one that speaks to you the most. It just so happens that we’ve fully updated our Meta Tier List for Explorer Anthology 2, which you can check out below – take your pick of the best decks in the current meta, or try some off meta decks!

Of course, feel free to experiment as you would in an unranked queue environment as the format is still relatively fresh and all cards are able to be used by everyone!
