Standard Deck Experiment

[aaren]

Hey guys its Aaren, I play at fantasy games and hobbies every sunday and work on standard decks that would be labeled "home brews". While home, my buddy adam and I came up with some pretty good magic decks and seeing as this game is supposed to be fun I am going to attempt to play a new deck each week to see how it fares against other decks. After every sunday match I will say what was good about the deck and what was bad... hopefully this could help other people understand what is good and bad about magic decks.

This week I will be attempting a green white black to try and break the standard meta. This is my deck list... magic.tcgplayer.com/db/deck.asp?deck_id=799013

Have you thought about vengvines and fauna shamans?

ya i have, I tried it and it didnt do we well as I would have liked it to. thrun/glissa are much better to be equipped than vines/shaman. which is the point of the deck.

I am experimenting with a very similar decklist...

Another card I really like for this brew is River Boa. Conley Woods (pro player known for building some of the net decks people play) says its a very overlooked card for standard and he does well with sword in hand

River Boa is some dirty sideboard tech against RUG and CawGo! I'm doing that!

River Boa works...it should be in green deck sideboards. Very efficient and good card.
