not sure if this is the best place to ask but wat your guys opinion for solid standard deck right now i like B/U/W i have a decent black./white human spirit token deck been working on if there a good way to better that ill take the suggestions i lso i have blue illusions but again open to diff ideasbecause i moved an moved back to my old city and every1 net decks now so my local shop rather small is like fricking grandprix everyone running around with splinter twin decks and infect decks and they kill me turn 3 nothing i can do to stop it
I have a deck that beats wolf run, not sure how it fares against the zombies deck, it beat a slower one. Against delver and spirits it's a grind, racing while trying to gain life. RDW is a decent matchup because of the life gain, Spellskite and sideboard helps a little. Check it out if you want.

if you know what your meta is playing play something that will decimate whatever is popular at your shop. I remember awhile back everyone was using Illusions at my shop, and i was using tokens. Needless to say i got destroyed. Then i built a deck with a bunch of sacrificing and no targeting (since everything eventually got hexproofed on their side) and i ended up winning.

Probably U/B Zombies, U/W Delver, and R/G Aggro. They are all very good right now.

Everywhere is going to have something different for what the 'best' deck is. Right now, there are a LOT of spirit/human token decks around me (one of the reason almost every deck I have sideboards Ratchet Bomb), and U/B zombies are also very good.
But it varies. I wouldn't say there is a single best deck around in standard, that's the best part about Magic. But there are some strong builds you'll see over and over. Wolf Run was really popular, but I think so many people have pretty much memorized the key points of the deck by now that it's sideboarded against more. Delver Blade was very very powerful in my meta for a while, but it's kind of dropped off because of Ratchet Bombs growing popularity.

Havengul Lich combo is insane for me right now. it always has a winning record, usually around 4-1 at local fnm.
