Control Deck suggestions?
Standard forum
Posted on June 11, 2013, 8:43 p.m. by Dalektable
I have run mainly aggro in my year or so of playing magic, because control has always been just harder to get right. However now i think i am looking to try and run a ((relatively cheap)) control deck for standard. Thoughts and suggestions? Also i wasnt sure if this should go here or in deck help, but i thought that some other people could be wondering the same and this isnt a deck just thoughts on making one so...yeah. Suggestions welcome!

Pretty cheap, im working on a budget considering i dont have a consistant way to get money considering im 15. However with that being said i already have two Snapcaster Mage and two Restoration Angel in my possession

Right now aggro is actually being beaten down heavily, red aggro is simply too consistent and other aggro/midrange decks are too resilient, it maybe best to wait until standard shifts a bit (M14) before trying out control.

Thanks for the tip, im kinda just wanting to expand my horizons a bit. With that being said i run two tournament decks, both of which are on my profile if anyone would care to check them out. ((sorry for shameless promotion))

As another 15 year old with a control deck: Trade those Snappys and Resto's asap so you can get yourself some cards that will be in for longer. Trade for Sphinx's revelations, reckoners (if you are UWR), Supreme Verdicts, the RTR Block control staples, or anything good from m14.

How cheap are you looking to go? You can cut staples like Snapcaster Mage , Restoration Angel , and Sphinx's Revelation to save some money, but those decisions all impact the potential strength of your deck.
