Future Standard: Skeleton deck options

Standard forum

Posted on July 7, 2021, 9:24 p.m. by legendofa

I never thought I'd get to say this, but there are too many options for Skeleton-based decks in the upcoming Standard. I've been out of the Standard loop for a while, and Skeletons are one of my top two favorite tribes. Which deck is more suited for the Standard environment right now?

This one is inspired by Izzet Phoenix decks, with a lot of spells and value creatures.

This one is a grindy token/lifegain deck with a side of Aristocrats.

Right now, I think the one is better developed, but is my favorite color pair and Golgari Skeletons has been a dream of mine for a long time.

Which is in a better position, and how can I improve either one?

Okay, technically they're not Skeletons, but I think running Kaldheim Changelings like Realmwalker and Masked Vandal would make for amazing options in a Golgari Skeleton deck.

GrimlockVIII Good thought, I'll give some a spin. They're Skeleton enough for me right now. Thanks!
