STANDARD VOLTRON IS A THING THAT WINS

Standard GWU (Bant) Voltron

firesoftheforest17


Sideboard

Creature (4)

Enchantment (3)

Instant (8)


So I was browsing decks on tappedout and realized that the current standard meta IS ALL ANSWERS/CONTROL (or the occasional aggro deck, which we can deal with in many ways- I'll talk about that later) . So based on this meta, even though we are lacking great equipment, I decided to go voltron.So basically the idea of this deck, if your nof familiar with votron, is to get lots of equipment/enchantments on one of your hexproof creatures, then swing for a ton. This unanswered threat should win in a couple of turns


THE CREATURES
Bassara Tower Archer - Just a cheap hexproof creature
Conifer Strider- Same as above
Nyx-Fleece Ram- Helps our aggro problem
Sagu Mauler - Tempo and good finisher
Elvish Mystic- Helps us ramp into Conifer Strider


THE AURA'S
Ordeal of Heliod - One of the best ways to both pump our creatures and to gain some life for aggro matchups
Ordeal of Thassa - Card draw and pump
Sage's Reverie - Helps pump and draw again
Battle Mastery- Pump
Spectral Ward- Helps us get damage through as well as pumping
Aqueous Form- Gets our damage through and smooths out our draws


EVERYTHING ELSE
Banishing Light- Our only removal pre- Sideboard
Stubborn Denial- To protect from Enchant removal


SIDEBOARD
Plummet - Any of the many midrange decks containing dragons
Fleecemane Lion - Against sultai control as these games can go long as a result of Drown in Sorrow, and a monstrous-ed one late game can be effectively voltron-ed
Silkwrap - Aggro
Dissolve- G/R dragons- It can be a big problem for us and that is why there are two sideboard cards adressed almost only to it


Very early version of this deck, please leave suggestions and +1s

Avarice Amulet is just making the deck too slow, and Sage's Reverie Does not need to be a 4- of.
