Post pro-tour is one of my favorite times of the year. The format has just been broken wide open and it is time to test out all of the new decks that were displayed on the highest level. Today I am going to be sharing a couple of my favorite lists from Pro Tour Shadows Over Innistrad
R/G Goggle Ramp
Prior to the pro-tour I was playing a lot of the traditional R/G ramp deck and I honestly love this new spice to the archetype. One of the biggest issues with playing the old ramp deck came against some of the aggressive decks such as Mono White Humans. This deck sures up some of those issues via the sweet Pyromancer’s Goggles package. Then late game using the goggles to copy a huge Fall of the Titans is such a satisfying feeling. I think ramp will be a contender long into this standard format.
B/G Aristocrats.
Okay, now we are talking. The second list has me more excited about a standard deck than I have been in a long time. This deck reminiscent of the Rally deck of old standard. There are three main kills in this deck that I have found in testing. Zulaport Cutthroat is the primary kill in this deck that just happens to be supported by two of the other finishers in the deck, Westvale Abbey and Nantuko Husk. This deck has an incredible amount of synergy and is likely one of the hardest decks to play in the format right now. I will be attending Grand Prix Toronto and playing this deck. I hope to avoid Kalitas all weekend, that card shuts down this deck pretty well.
