---

A Standard deck to try out once Theros rotation is official; the plan here is to have just enough spot removal to get through until we hit a supreme verdict or planeswalker and stabilize; once that's happened we can shut things down with Jace, Elspeth, or Aetherling. Read the Bones is a new addition to try and dig deeper for a wrath or Revelation or win condition, while Hero's Downfall helps deal with stuff like Domri Rade. Overall the mana base is a bit less reliable than UW, for example, but it allows us to play all of the best removal and gives us some pretty powerful sideboard options. (Sin Collector, Thoughtseize, Blood Baron of Vizkopa, etc.)
