The Hunter Maze Decklists

Much like the previous event, any Emblem that can net you card advantage should be fully leveraged!

The most obvious route to take in this event is to load up your deck with as many creatures that can draw cards as possible. For this event, Mono Green seems like the obvious choice as you’ll have consistent mana and ramp which will let you get that first big creature down and easily keep the ball rolling from there.

In the same vein as Mono Green with large creatures, Black also has quite the large amount of power 4 and greater creatures making it a great pick. While you won’t be as proactive as Green nor have as many creatures that trigger the emblem, having access to interaction to clear the way for a critical attack is great as well!

Mono Red Aggro

Just like last time, sometimes the best way of winning is by going under the opposition! While neither of the previous decks are slow, not focusing on the emblem as heavily and opting for a damage race could be a smart way of going about this event!
