Tron has played Relic of Progenitus in the main for a while now, but what about other decks? As a result, players are beginning to respect that the graveyard is an essential element and demands an answer game one. Eli Kassis won Grand Prix Oakland with the deck as well. The deck put nine copies day two at SCG Worcester, with three of those making the Top 8. The success of Izzet Phoenix has been especially notable of late. Both of these decks play the best enabler in the format: Faithless Looting. Creeping Chill has made Dredge both more explosive and more resilient. Arclight Phoenix has soared to the top tier and currently occupies nearly 9% of the metagame. Since the release of Guilds of Ravnica, the graveyard has become a significant roleplayer in Modern. Playing tons of Modern will help you develop this knowledge, but watching or reading Modern content from others goes a long way as well. Format knowledge is critical especially given how diverse the deck options are and how quickly the metagame can change. Modern adopts a similar mindset to Legacy: play what you know and know what’s in the metagame. Has MTG Arena’s best-of-one format given players a different perspective on deckbuilding? Or rather, are players making use of their format knowledge to get an edge in game one against the top decks? This week I delve into these theories and offer advice on what you can do to be proactive in deckbuilding in your metagame. The rise of Faithless Looting has prompted players to react accordingly, and some players have chosen to run staple sideboard cards in the main deck.
There’s been plenty of discussion recently about deckbuilding in Modern, and how we should approach sideboarding.
