The Edge of Night Singleton Event Guide and Decklists

Hello everyone! This weekend’s special event allows us to earn some sweet cosmetics: The Edge of Night. Once again, it is one of my favorite formats, Singleton, with a twist as you’ll have a Nightfall emblem which will heavily impact how you play the game! If you’re a fan of cosmetics and/or Singleton, you don’t want to miss this event!


Event Details

Night is sweeping across the land. Ominous howls and cruel cackles fill the long shadows, and it is well past time for good folk to bar the door and pray for sunrise. But for those bold enough to venture out into the dark, there’s adventure and glory to be had. If you choose to face the night head-on, you’ll win eternal night card styles from Innistrad: Midnight Hunt representing some of the foes you’ve faced. You’ll get new card styles each time until you’ve collected the whole set.

  • Duration: October 28, 2021 at 8:00 AM PST – November 4, 2021 at 8:00 AM PST
  • Format: Singleton with Nightfall Emblem
  • Entry Fee: 2,000 Gold or 400 Gems
  • Ends After: You can keep playing, but rewards do not go past four wins.
  • Match Structure: Best-of-one matches (BO1)

Nightfall Emblem

At the beginning of your upkeep, if it’s neither day nor night, it becomes day. Whenever day becomes night, you draw a card and you lose 1 life.

The Edge of Night Singleton Decklists

We have 5 new Singleton decks specially crafted for this event, to fully take advantage of the Day and Night cycle and of course, The Celestus sprinkled on top. You can also take advantage of our Singleton decks brewed for the previous Festival event that don’t overlap with the new ones below, which are most likely good enough for this event! You can find the complete list on the bottom of the guide.

With some inspiration from the Mono Blue Tempo deck I wrote about recently, Monoblue seems like a solid choice for this event as well since you can easily switch between day and night to take full advantage of the emblem!

Like any good midrange deck, Orzhov does a great job at playing well at any stage of the game as well as having ample opportunities to switch from Day to Night and back when needed.

When people are looking to go big, we go under. Boros makes use of the fastest cards in the format and some Burn for reach to punish anyone playing a slower deck.

It is the Edge of Night so we should play Werewolves! Werewolves are going to be super charged considering most games will start off at Nighttime since it’s highly unlikely both players will have spells turns 1 to 2 making all your creatures huge for free!
