Master Your Magic the Gathering Journey with Video Insights!

With the arrival of Edge of Eternities on MTG Arena, the current goal of many players is to collect the new cards, so they are therefore focusing on limited, so as to also practice for the Qualifier Weekend on August 23, which will be sealed. However, the Premier Draft is not the only way to farm cards; the platform also offers a valid alternative for constructed players: the Best-of-One Events! If you're interested in this route, I'm here for you, because today I want to show you what I think are the five best decks for succeeding in the Standard Event right now, which will allow you to gradually obtain all the cards while leaving you with a more or less unchanged amount of gems!

Insidious Roots is one of my favorite cards in the current standard that encourages all kinds of silly builds involving the graveyard and pulling creatures out of it in one way or another. One popular build prior to our recent rotation featured Osteomancer Adept and Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler to create a self-feeding engine that could play out an entire deck and fling an enormous plant for a win. If you’re curious, check out the article I wrote on that deck here: While the theory on that deck was sound and it performed very well, one of the key combo enablers has now rotated out of the format. Tyvar is gone from Insidious Roots, but rather than accept this as the death of the deck, I've decided to push forward and accept it as a challenge to overcome.

If you're looking for an off-meta brew to take down your opponents at your next Standard event, this mono-red Dragons list might be exactly what you need. It's a budget-friendly build that still delivers explosive plays, letting you punish slower decks with early pressure and finish with hard-hitting flyers. Between efficient removal, treasure-powered ramp, and game-ending threats, this deck can go toe-to-toe with the format's heavyweights while keeping your opponents guessing. The Deck This mono-red Dragons build keeps things simple but packs plenty of firepower for the new Standard environment after rotation. By trimming down on flashy but expensive mythics, the deck stays budget-friendly while still delivering big threats and solid interaction. It's built to curve out aggressively, pressure opponents early, and finish with powerful flying Dragons. Here's how each part of the deck comes together.

Welcome Magic lovers! With the recent Standard rotation, which coincides with the release of the latest set, Edge of Eternities, and coming hot off the heels of the biggest Standard ban in twenty years, it's safe to say that the format is currently a deck-brewer's paradise. While the Regional Championship Qualifier season has officially started, we haven't started seeing results from the highly-competitive RCQ tournaments that will be happening very soon. This means that the format is mostly directionless, with the only real competitive data coming in the form of Magic Online Standard Challenge results. That, in turn, means that the Magic Arena ranked ladder, as well as the leagues on Magic Online, are full of players trying out new ideas, going back to tried-and-true strategies to see if they have any life left, and determining if there are any hidden gems to unearth in Standard with which to gain an advantage come tournament time.

Time flies with six Standard sets a year, and now that Edge of Eternities is here, we can dive into our usual guide to the Limited archetypes! We'll take a look at the ten color pairs in this new set, highlighting their mechanics and strategy, their key cards, and those that best fit the archetype. We'll also delve into some "combos" that will help you nail down the color pair's game plan and that you might be able to replicate at your events, as they only require commons and uncommons! Edge of Eternities is set in space, beyond the borders of the Multiverse, and it's characterized by four new mechanics, which I have already told you about in a previous article and which we will resume in the analysis of the archetypes. They are Station, Lander, Warp, and Void.

It really feels like we are still taking in everything from Final Fantasy. About a month ago we had MC Vegas and the collector boosters were all the craze, along with the pro tour. In less than five weeks, we have seen a bunch of cards banned, had rotation, and had a new set release. It is an eventful MTG Summer to say the least. Right now, it is that time that we all love where a new meta will be formed. I know that I usually release deck lists before the new set comes out, but this time I wanted to wait for the set to be released and test it a bit after rotation before I advised whether or not some of this stuff was worth burning wildcards on. The first list that I have for you is the discard list. We got some new tools in Edge of Eternities and in this post-ban/rotation meta we are going to have a better opportunity to get back to basics and try out some of the good old-fashioned mono black fun. My favorite thing about this deck is that we can turn our main engine into a creature when we are ready. There are so many good discard spells in the format right now. We are approaching a point where control decks are going to be relevant again because aggro decks are still good. It is part of my due diligence to find out a good control/discard deck for you. This is my first attempt. We are going to use our efficient threats to trade with problematic creatures, and remove them where needed. We will use our discard spells to help ensure that the opponent runs out of gas. Once they get to that point, we will punish them for having no cards in hand. This will eventually lead to them getting too far behind to simply beat us with a top deck. We even have some options for gaining life that will help us stay in the game. Let's take a look at some of the new cards that are making a splash early. Fun New Toys
