$10 Budget Simic Aggro in Magic Origins Standard!

Standard Budget GU (Simic)

BBBr0ny


Sideboard


This Budget Simic deck began life as a midrange deck that played Icefall Regents and sagu maulers. The problem was that it was too slow against pure aggro, and also got outclassed quickly by the big beaters of other midrange decks. Solution? Get small! Now we can go toe-to-toe low to the ground with other aggro decks, and run up under big midrange and ramp decks! We even have fair game against control, as we can fend off some of their counters with counters of our own, especially after we sideboard! Cool opening sequences involve a Faerie Miscreant or Gudul Lurker on the first turn followed up by a Titanic Growth on the second turn for a near-guaranteed 5 damage on turn two. You can even follow up on turn two with another miscreant, then a Might of the Masses, getting you a card and 3 damage, plus putting you in a decent position for turn 3. Elusive Spellfist also works well with our pump spells, dealing large amounts of unblockable damage. He can b hard to deal with for the opponent on both offense and defense, as he blocks well and is tough to kill, as even Lightning Strike and a Spell mastery Fiery Impulse aren't guaranteed to kill it. Icefeather Aven and Stratus Dancer are both fast, versatile creatures that provide us a choice between a 2-power flyer on turn 2 or good tempo/countermagic if you need the option. Stratus Dancer is especially good at saving us from mass removal and any combat tricks or spot removal the opponent might be carrying. Send to Sleep and Bounding Krasis help us get our guys through for more than just the first couple of turns, and both can be good against all kinds of decks, aggro or bigger. Tell us how you feel about this one! The deck can easily be improved with Den Protector, Deathmist Raptor, Nissa, Collected Company and maybe even Jace! Simic has a lot of potential in the upcoming standard!
