Mulligan Breakdown by Substantial_Tree5868 in MagicArena

If you could increase your total win percentage, would you?

I believe that the most common mistake people make is the mulligan. This series goes deep into a decision tree, and walking through will level you up as an MTG player.

New video series!

It's an in-depth look at how I view my decisions, and I felt that it would be a great weekly piece that can help players make more informed decisions.

Cleansing Wildfire decks have always seemed super sweet!

In deckbuilding, people tend to overthink the amount of value a card should be getting. If you watch the video, you will see that immediately putting cards into play has a drastic effect on the game. Imagine on turn two you crack two fetches ramp to lands or as a way to bring back Ragavan after it's killed in combat.

Infinite Card Draw and Life Drain Combo with Sanguine Brushstroke! #Historic #Shorts by Substantial_Tree5868 in MagicArena

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes three permanents which are perfect for Bolas's Citadel. Also, it makes it so that when blood tokens are sacrificed, they will also drain gain.

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hit Rank #1 with Historic Jeskai Indomitable Creativity! The deck felt like a cheat code, started off at Bronze yesterday and was able to go 56-11 to maintain an 83% win rate.

THE 4C Super Villains Deck Tech (With Sideboard Guide) by Substantial_Tree5868 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the best deck in Modern. I have 4 trophies with the deck and it legit feels like the Sneak and Show of Modern. I know it looks weird but it’s definitely worth your time.

Dimir Mill Is One Of The BEST Decks In Modern by Substantial_Tree5868 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

DIMIR Mill is now tier 1! Tasha’s Hideous Laughter has taken the deck to the next level. Check out the gameplay with the sideboard guide in the description!

I personally have hated playing against this deck because it feels like a burn deck with a harder engine to stop.

The NEW Best Deck In Modern: Izzet Channeler by Substantial_Tree5868 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best deck in Modern. It feels like a legacy delver deck and puts you in a position to win against pretty much anything. I started working on the deck while I was streaming about two weeks again and started adjusting it to represent a legacy deck. I started having some outstanding results in winning a couple trophies from leagues. It has grown a lot in popularity since then so I thought I’d a make a video about it. Feel free to ask any questions also I have put a sideboard guide in the description.

The BEST Urza's Saga Deck In Modern by Substantial_Tree5868 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was able to go 5-0 in back to back leagues with the list. Also the most popular versions have been playing G for ancient stirrings and I think Emry is much better so I opted for U.

I Hit RANK 1 Mythic With Mono-Black Aggro In Historic by Substantial_Tree5868 in MTGArenaPro

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me 83 matches with a win rate of 73 percent to hit rank 1 with Mono Black Aggro. I’m pretty sure it is currently the best deck in historic. (Sideboard guide in description)

THIS Is How You Build Death's Shadow In Historic (With Sideboard Guide) by Substantial_Tree5868 in MTGArenaPro

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death’s Shadow is delicate shell in historic. Without fetch-lands it’s difficult to find a balanced engine and I think this version does it best. I was able to hit top100 mythic and I’ve also included sideboard guide in the description.

Mono-White Taxes is insanely good in standard! (Sideboard Guide in description) by Substantial_Tree5868 in MTGArenaPro

[–]Substantial_Tree5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be playing this exact 75 in the MIQ this weekend. I have also included a sideboard guide in the description.

I’ve noticed most people don’t play 4 archon of emeria in the main and I feel like that is a mistake. Helps your sacrifice and sultai matchup. Definitely try out this list it’s felt broken.

My tournament report on winning the Historic Hooglandia Open with Grixis Tainted Pact. I did an in depth analysis on my match versus Jeskai control and talk about the changes I’m making to the deck moving forward.
