Open Decklists is a project to share decks for 60-card constructed.

If you want to learn about the decks in a format or have a steady stream of new decks and tech in your feed, feel free to follow or tag @OpenDecklists .

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Rakdos Midrange

Enjoy the view here, whew!

The foil retro Thoughtseizes here are really incredible cards to look at. Incredibly pretty. Solid deck build, and a well-earned 9.5 on the mtg drip scale.

[Pompa of the Balemurk Ex @darkvulpine]

After 7 weeks of testing, the format breaking 3 times, decks getting banned, cards being unbanned, here is where we landed for RC Atlanta. Old faithful Rakdos midrange with special guest Preacher of the Schism.

May my heart be my guiding key. GLHF

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: UW Control

Gotta appreciate how pretty these cards are, First off.

Secondly. Hallowed Moonlight is very well positioned against all the creatures appearing out of graveyards and libraries in the combo decks of the format right now. Earns main Deck spots.

Deck: (uhh... Acererak combo?)

This is some extra spicy heat!

There are at least a few different mana combos happening here, and we're not sure we can quite spot all the variations.
Chamber Sentry is a poor-man's walking ballista, but can get the job done.

[Ben McKinnon-Duggins @bduggs44]

While others chose to play Amalia lifegain. I chose to play dungeon lifeDRAIN. @anzidmtg @DreamHackMagic I think this would be a wonderful deck for the stream, you agree? @fireshoes for backup on the Spice Train.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Mono Green Devotion

Losing Karn means the deck needs a new way to win, and the best impression of Craterhoof is Ulvenwald Oddity.
Nissa and Viv give the deck some new aggressive angles as well. Green is still explosive and powerful, as one hopes post-ban.

[God's 2nd Favorite Untapper @BomattCourier]

We are coping this weekend

I feel like I did my due diligence, at least

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Amalia Combo

This new archetype has picked up a lot of steam the last couple weeks, as a quick and resilient combo deck. Being able to package in some toolbox Creatures gives this deck a lot of main deck answers in game 1.

[Mason E-Sports Clark @masoneclark]

Playing Amalia combo for the RC tomorrow. I think the deck is great. Lots of small things you can do with this deck when it comes to building. However at the end of the day it’s a powerful deck. Excited to play pioneer tomorrow!

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Modern

Deck: Izzet Prowess

With Fury leaving the format, it's a great time to put two 1/2's into play. Survives bowmasters, too. Expressive Iteration and Breach lookin stroooong.

[YungDingo @YungDingoMTG]

🏆'd with Reid Duke's Prowess list, seems very well positioned now that the Fury and Bean boogeymen are gone. SB could use work though

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Mardu Greasefang

No Esika's Chariot or Grisly Salvage?! Not in this red splash version, taking a more midrange approach and adding Copter and lots of natural discard outlets in the creatures.
A midrange strategy, with an explosive combo in waiting.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Abzan Amalia Combo

Another abzan combo deck in the format, this one less reliant on the graveyard than Greasefang is. Flooding the board with creatures has a natural aggro plan, with a combo finish.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Izzet Phoenix

A deck that was already good before the bans is still a solid choice, and has lots of ways to kill a Smugglers Copter.

[Scott McNamara @OafMcNamara]

🏆Back to back trophies with Pheonix tonight🏆

If you're looking for something to prey on all the copter decks, look no further

Link to SB guide below⬇️

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Rakdos midrange

Jamming Smug Copter into the rakdos shell gives filtering and a more aggressive angle to the deck, also reflected in Archfiend.

Leave the Go for the Throat at home, since it doesn't kill Copters. Heartless act and Power Word Kill are back.

[Dominick Paolercio @Karatedom10]

Rakdos still just the sauce. Bankbuster truthers in shambles

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Modern

Deck: Orzhov Scam

Replacing Solitude instead of fury, it's probably for the best that this didn't immediately seem like the next best thing. Space to iterate all over the format right now.

[Dominick Paolercio @Karatedom10]

3-1ed the prelim with new look scam. Deck was fine, worse than scam before but double grief turn one is still really stupid so probably something you can play

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Mono Green Devotion

With Karn out of the picture, this is a pretty quick idea of how the deck could look post bans.

The deck needs a bursty way to kill and Oddity can provide that.

[Scott McNamara @OafMcNamara]

🏆5-0 with Karnless Mono green🏆

sideboard is thrown together without much thought

waiting on @BobbyFortanely to tell everyone how to build it post karn

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Merfolk combo

A low to the ground creature shell also with a combo plan. Tap Follower untapping itself, creating a merfolk when it taps from the new enchantment from #MTGIxalan

[ptbench @PTBench]

Another Pioneer 🏆this time with combo feesh. Very fun archetype

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Standard

Deck: Orzhov Midrange

With standard season around the corner, we have all the sets that will be a part of that new season.

Here's a nice value midrange pile, cutting out the blue from Esper variants, was enough to take down the mtgo challenge.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Discover Combo

Another discover combo deck, this time using Eldritch Evolution to continue to get more Discover effects and work down the discover chain, and eventually get a haste-enabler.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Domain Discover Combo

First place from the mtgo challenge this weekend. Looks like Discover may not be the 'fixed cascade' wizards thought it was.

Is it broken, or just another player in the meta?

Either way, looks like pioneer is getting a shake up.

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: Boros Convoke

Two sets in a row we’ve gotten new cards for this deck that make meaningful upgrades. Imodane’s, Bunnicorn, and now Warden.

Plenty of options for builds of this deck, and we’ll be keeping our eye on what’s performing.

[Joaquín Maldonado Dorich @xnubepridex]

First trohpy 🏆 with Boros Convoke... Need to improve on mulligan decisions.

@fireshoes #MTG

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Deck: 5C Humans

The addition of Cavern of Souls will have kindred decks like Humans exploring new space with 12 creature type lands.

Once a modern classic, 5-Color humans is a welcome addition into pioneer!

[Tiago _Cygnus @Tiago_Cygnus]

First 🏆 in Pioneer!
Larcenist is the first card in a long time that made me want to try more colors in Humans. Once you have blue, why not go red for MRider? From there to 5c is nothing. My build is different from what I saw people trying, so feel free to AMA.

@fireshoes

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Modern

Deck: Amulet Titan

Spelunking is a welcome addition to another amulet style effect. Not a 4 of at its cost, but it is fitting in well so far!

[WDG Altaria @Alt4ria_Ay]

Trophy no.1! Tried new cards and spelunking was insanely great!
10-1 finished and that's a good start.✌🏻️

[OpenDecklists @OpenDecklists]

Format: Pioneer

Decks are 4 new brews:
1) Vampires
2) Merfolk
3) Explore Combo
4) Rakdos Hallow One
