B/W/R in Gatecrash

Standard forum

Posted on Jan. 3, 2013, 2:28 p.m. by lockiew

So Gatecrash contains the Orzhov and Boros guilds, in my opinion two of the more powerful guilds. Based On that opinion I believe B/W/R control will be a powerful combination after gatecrash. So what do you guys think?Here is my list: Chavest Midrange (Gatecrash)

Control's biggest spells right now are Supreme Verdict and card:Sphinx's Revelation. Not having those doesn't mean a control build is impossible, but it could only hurt.

Also, "Chavest" is the term for the B/W/R shard in TappedOut's community-made set. Don't expect the name to carry any meaning off this website.

Yeah but the purpose of those spells is to stabilize. And I feel that the new Ghost Council, Lingering Souls , and spot removal do a fine job at stabilizing in my deck! Check it out!

Supreme Verdict is for stabilizing; card:Sphinx's Revelation is for flat-out winning the game.

I'm not going to give any feedback on your deck yet simply because it's not wise to build a list with only ~30 cards officially spoiled out of 274.

zandl The reason I suggested the deck was so you could see how it worked with out verdict and revelation. Also, I've tested my deck against Bant control, the deck that uses verdict and revelation the most, and beat it every time! Theres no point in saying its not wise because everyone does it and it allows me to test the deck before the set comes out so I know what cards to preorder. So please take your "advice" elsewhere as I was looking for opinions on the idea not an insult at my deck building habits!

I wasn't insulting anything. Quit being so defensive for no reason.

It's a fact that you don't know everything in Gatecrash. Your deck will change and so will the decks you play against.
