Wilds of Eldraine Constructed – Midweek Magic Event Guide and Best Decklists
This guide will contain everything you need to know about the Midweek Magic: Wilds of Eldraine Constructed event, including rewards and our exclusive sample decklists.
Hey everyone! We’ve reached the middle of another week and that means it’s time for another midweek Magic. This week we are going to be playing Wilds of Eldraine constructed. Due to my required number of dad jokes per week, I must say that it sounds like we’ll have a wild time.
The only rules description given was that the cards must be from Wilds of Eldraine so we have no clarification if that includes Enchanting Tales or the other cards that aren’t included in draft boosters. I’ll try to mix it up a bit so that no matter how it ends up, there will be useable decks.

This is what you want to play if you just want to dunk all over aggressive decks. Between all the cheap removal and life gain, it’s going to give them a very steep slope to try to climb. Faunsbane Troll and Gruff Triplets are on mop-up duty for whatever is left standing after the devastation.
You know what it is, we do this every time. Turn creatures sideways. Redcap Gutter-Dweller and Rotisserie Elemental provide ways to generate some extra cards without taking away from the beatdown aspect.
There is no way to play the adventure part of recruiter, it’s there because its hasty and makes all of your smaller creatures (mostly rats) relevant.
Do you like your opponent having creatures? If not, then this is the deck for you as it just destroys everything in sight while grinding out your opponent’s will to continue playing. You’ll get around to winning eventually through either Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator or Virtue of Persistence.
A very aggressive deck that gets topped off by Virtue of Loyalty to make it a beatdown worth celebrating. You start out with a double dose of Savannah Lions and party your way across the opponent’s face. If you’re wondering why I am playing Cooped up instead of Torch the Tower, it’s because it’s a permanent that counts towards celebration.
Here is your commons and uncommons only deck of the week. To the surprise of no one the cheapest way to get there is to play cheap red creatures and catch someone stumbling on mana.
