Standard Deck Help forum

What do people consider the top three standard decks with the release of SOI?
Most will have a flavor of white involved. The removal package is just too good between Declaration in Stone and Silkwrap.

UW Tempo serves me really well last season and it's looking just as strong if not stronger this season.
That said, Jund looks incredibly strong right now, too. Seems that way every time Innistrad rolls around.

After seeing the results of SCG Baltimore, I'd say that right now Bant Company and W/x Humans are certainly #1 and #2 (but not necessarily in that order), and W/B Eldrazi is probably #3. However, there will almost certainly be some shifts in the top decks with the Pro Tour in two weeks.

Shadows Over Innistrad has very little interaction with the other current Standard sets, and most of the cards are powered down homages to Innistrad cards, making it a very weak set. This means that the best Standard decks will pretty much be those that have survived rotation, such as Eldrazi Ramp, and Bant Company, possibly along with some form of Dark Jeskai (As the powerhouse of Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Flip, Kolaghan's Command, and Goblin Dark-Dwellers os still around), and maybe a T2 Werewolves/Grull Monsters if it is able to find a solution for the previous decks.

Do you have a link to the current versions of those decks?

I called Mono-White with a splash of X humans. Picked up a bunch of Kytheons for 5$ and foils for 10, now they've at least doubled in price :) I am debating on just pure mono white or W with a splash of G. I would probably just throw in a couple Tireless Trackers which I knew was a great card when I used it in pre-release, same with 1 copy of Sigarda, Heron's Grace I'm quite surprised nobody tried this card, it's insanely powerful and can create blockers for days and fuel a Westvale Abbey Flip I would also maybe just throw in 1x Collected Company but not 4 in a G/W aggro deck.
I really like my current list in theory, but have to test it Humans are Monsters too

Probably Eldrazi Ramp, GW midrange/tokens/humans and RB vampires.
