The new March 2021 ranked season is here and as always, the first week is the best time to collect decklists from players looking to establish their rank early in the season! In fact, this week we have a tonne of variety of decks, from classic to new builds in both Standard and Historic.
We also recently updated our metagame tier list and rankings for both formats, so be sure to check it out if you want to see how the best decks stack against each other:
- Arena Standard (BO1) Metagame Tier List and Rankings – Kaldheim – March 2021
- Traditional Standard (BO3) Metagame Tier List and Rankings – Kaldheim – March 2021
- Arena Historic (BO1) Metagame Tier List and Rankings – Post-Uro Ban – March 2021
- Traditional Historic (BO3) Metagame Tier List and Rankings – Post-Uro Ban – March 2021
Standard
The highlight this week is the Colossal Plow deck featuring Relic Golem in a Selesnya Adventures shell. Naya Tokens has also seen a surge in popularity thanks to Crokeyz, and the Cycling decks are back on the rise thanks to Irencrag Pyromancer.
Out of these, our favorite one is the Mutate Combo deck is also showing some impressive plays, such as this turn 3 kill:
Historic
With Uro out, Historic is currently rampant with tribal creature-based decks, namely Elves and Angels. Historic Anthology 4 has just also been announced, with a few cards that could potentially impact the format. The spotlight will be back on Historic later this month when the competitive tournaments switch from Standard.
This is our weekly column, and if you have decks you want to be featured in the next edition tweet us at @mtgazone or give us a shout at our Discord.
