Looking for a dirt-cheap but dangerously explosive deck on MTG Arena? Say hello to 8 Wack, a classic archetype reimagined for the digital age—without a single rare. That's right. This version of 8 Wack costs almost nothing to build but can still run circles around unsuspecting opponents. It's fast, it's aggressive, and it wins games before your opponent even knows what's happening. The Deck At the core of the strategy is a simple philosophy: flood the board with creatures, then slam down a hasty finisher like Goblin Bushwhacker or Reckless Bushwhacker to swing in for lethal. Let's break down how it works and why it's the best cheap MTG Arena deck around.

Finally, the new Magic: The Gathering set, Tarkir: Dragonstorm, is around the corner, and we are already seeing a lot of exciting cards with lots of potential. But first, let's cover some key elements from the latest MTG set. When is the Tarkir: Dragonstorm release date? ​Tarkir: Dragonstorm is scheduled for release on April 11, 2025. ​

Like many players, I enjoy playing busted strategies and “unfair games” and there's no better deck to achieve that than Orzhov SCAM in Timeless, and today, I will go over a deck that in just two days (with a bit of dedication) let me go from Bronze to Mythic in MTG Arena effortlessly. Let’s dive right into it. Orzhov SCAM Timeless Deck Overview

Previously, I put together a deck that took full advantage of Standard's abundance of mana fixers—Golgari Obliterator. Its key card? None other than Phyrexian Obliterator, an incredibly powerful card that's often held back by its demanding quad-black mana cost. But what if I told you there's another deck that can use a similar strategy? Enter Dimir Doomsday Control, a formidable control deck poised to take on the Standard meta's top decks. Curious about how this deck works and why it's a strong contender in MTG Standard? Let's dive in!

During its debut, Phyrexian Obliterator was not a dominant force. Still, as years passed, new cards were printed and finally, at no other than Pro Tour Aetherdrift, this crazy Golgari Phyrexian Obliterator build managed to go 9-1 during the Standard portion at the hands of Christoffer Larsen. TODAY I will go over the key cards in the deck and uncover the main plan behind it! Golgari Midrange Standard Deck Overview For those who may not know, Phyrexian Obliterator is a four -mana 5/5 with a crazy ability: whenever it's dealt damage, the source controller sacrifices that many permanents. Not only does this mean that it can bypass burn spells, but also combat damage, and this deck is centered on maximizing its potential, along with a sneaky and clever card that will help us do devastating damage to our opponents. Let's find out how.

Pro Tour Aetherdrift is in the books, and we have a new Standard champion—Matt Nass! He put on an incredible performance, losing only one game throughout the entire tournament. Naturally, it’s only right that we break down the best deck in the format. Today, I’ll walk you through key strategies, general tips, and a sideboard guide to help you master this powerhouse. Curious to see what makes this deck so strong? Let’s dive in!

Aetherdrift brought new tools to toy with, and today, we will cover a deck that takes full advantage of graveyard movement: 4-color Insidious Roots. With its unpredictability and recursion engine, this deck is one of the newest innovative pieces that the new set has brought to us, but does it have what it takes to compete against the standard top decks? Let's find out! 4c Insidious Roots Standard Deck Overview 4c Insidious Roots is a graveyard-focused midrange deck that thrives on moving cards in and out of exile to generate an overwhelming board presence. If you enjoy a deck that rewards careful sequencing and graveyard manipulation, 4c Insidious Roots is a strong contender in Standard. Let's see now why!

Dredge-like strategies have always been some of my favorites to play, and thanks to an old card getting a fresh reprint in Standard, I'm excited to share an updated take on a relatively new deck. I recently saw this Golgari Self-Mill list go 5-0 in an MTGO Standard League, and I couldn't resist diving in. Curious about which card I'm talking about? Let's jump right in! Golgari Self-Mill Standard Deck Overview Recently in Standard, Golgari Self-Mill has become a powerful strategy that fuels the graveyard for recursion and value. Cards like Urborg Lhurgoyf and Overlord of the Balemurk thrive when the graveyard is full, while Up the Beanstalk and Hollow, Marauder provide essential card advantages in different ways. This deck balances aggressive threats with resilient mid-game plays, making it a strong contender in the format, and we will now see why by explaining each card in it.
