This looks to be the best deck out of the five. It is more consistent with two colors with the other decks running Surveil lands to accommodate for being three-colored. Card-wise, Kaya is a bomb, plus 3 Novice Inspectors and 2 Delney will go a long way.
Kaya is on a quest for the truth! Teysa has been murdered, and the killer is on the loose! This deck focuses on building up a force of Spirits with Kaya, Spirits' Justice and Teysa, Opulent Oligarch and then making sure that they get through with Delney, Streetwise Lookout. Use the power of the dead to help you find Clues and apprehend criminals.
Kellan has found his way onto yet another plane and has begun to learn the ways of the detective! Join him on his journey to solve the crimes of Ravnica under the wing of Ezrim, the archon who built the Agency. This deck is built on playing lands and building up a horde of Clues to keep your hand full and your Detectives safe. Hold off until you have all the facts and can play Ezrim, Agency Chief and other powerful Detectives to take down your opponent!
Judith is back to her antics, including sending investigators down rabbit holes and trapping snoopy detectives. Sideline Schemes is a deck built around using damaging instant and sorcery spells in conjunction with creatures to remove opposing threats while buffing up your own. Judith, Carnage Connoisseur uses the ability to create powerful tokens or grant deathtouch and lifelink to remove powerful creatures for low cost.
Alquist Proft has a new case to solve, and Etrata has a name to clear. Together the dynamic duo makes for a match of wit and wile that leads to nothing but the truth! This deck is built on utilizing the support of Clues with cards like Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth to build up powerful game-ending Assassins like Etrata, Deadly Fugitive and Massacre Girl, Known Killer. Win the game by turning over your opponent’s cards into your own creatures and making them even more dangerous by giving your whole board wither!
All of Ravnica leads to the great tree Vitu-Ghazi, as do all the clues! Trostani has been found at the center of a deadly plot, making murderers of Ravnica’s citizens. Build up to the powerful creatures in this deck to make for an exciting finish. Trostani, Three Whispers uses flexible buffs to give strong cards like Anzrag, the Quake-Mole and Tolsimir, Midnight's Light the power they need to close the case and finish the game.
This is a bonus sample deck that is not part of the event.
Tolsimir is the elven protector of the Selesnya guild, but now his beloved wolf companion Voja stands at the forefront. This Voja deck teams up two powerful creature types, Elves and Wolves, into one powerful deck. Voja, Jaws of the Conclave grows creatures with counters equal to the number of Elves you control and draws cards equal to the number of Wolves you control, making defending Selesnya a breeze, while their trusty partner Tolsimir comes along for the ride!
Thanks for reading! There are a lot of events coming up, as well as Alchemy: Karlov Manor on March 5 and the flurry of Metagame Challenge events starting March 8. Keep an eye out for their guides and more!
