We last left off with part two of this series, GB Elves. You can find that article [here] and part one on Faeries, which is located [here].
Today is the final part of the primer, which will ouline RG Big Mana, Reveillark, and Mono Red.
Before the arrival of Shadowmoor, Faeries dominated City Champs, but no one ever really accused Faeries of Affinity-level brokenness. They are now dominating in a way unseen in years.
When deciding on where I would start my more in-depth break down, Faeries seemed like the obvious choice. Everywhere you go you'll find someone going on about how it's the best deck hands down and it's getting hard to argue.
I love to to build amazing decks out of almost no rares and kick some real teeth in with them. Many times it's against netdeckers who dropped far, far too much money on their decks.
It is time to illuminate the murky gloom of the new Standard format. Unfortunately, Regionals is right around the corner, and the duality of Lorwyn block casts a wider pall than normal.
Take a few multicolored 2/2s. Any multicolored 2/2 will do, but I say have between 6-8 of them in a given deck. Then throw in the Liege of the corresponding colors and voila! 4/4 for 2 mana.
This isn't the newest strategy ever, but it is being overlooked for some reason.
Now that the Shadowmoor puzzle is all put together, you have all the pieces you can possibly need to assemble your next tournament winning Standard deck. Here's what you should be looking at adding.
