I've been able to win with all of the brawl decks. My advice would be to mull more aggressively. No, even more aggressive than that. If your hand doesn't have good mana, some early action, and at least one reasonably strong card, you should throw it back. You should be taking the free mulligan a lot of the time. Beyond that, try to be sparing with removal. The decks are inconsistent, so you can't really depend on getting more threats or answers. Save your removal for threats you REALLY can't answer otherwise, and will kill you if you let them sit for a couple of turns.

Unless the Excalibur card gives haste and generates an overwhelming advantage while having a colossal hammer-esque CMC and equipcost, I don't think Ser Gwyn will be standard playable. Please subscribe to my news letter for more of my blistering hot takes.

All the other rare cards in golos Fields except Golos and Field will almost certainly still see play. Edit: I still have hope for Kenrith even.

Bust Rodd posted:Simic Flash is the absolute worst deck to play against in the format IMO because the only way to beat it is to MAKE THEM have it. Sometimes they have it, and you realize that you couldn’t have possibly ever won, and the last five minutes were you just slowly discovering that. Go ahead, flash that frilled mystic in for no value against my three gutterbones. Aren't we all having fun?

drainpipe posted:Yikes, that manabase. I'm brewing up some sort of mono-black or heavy black Rakdos Aristocrat deck. Not having Priest or Mayhem Devil really hurts the Rakdos deck compared to the Standard version, but you still get Familiar, Oven, and Claim the Firstborn. Ayara and the hybrid Knights might be enough of a payoff?

I feel like Manse Dance Revolution has some potential now, but i'm not sure how good the Simic Food match up is for it. It seems like Esper would have the advantage?

If you're enjoying the Super-Singleton event, you should check out the Gladiator format - the difference is that Field of the Dead is banned instead of Nexus of Fate. The result is a format that's pretty similar to Canadian Highlander, and feels a lot like "constructed Cube". It's really easy to get started with barely any wild cards, and even the 'expensive' decks are cheap due to the singleton aspect. The Gladiator discord is extremely active with people constantly setting up tournaments, discussing cards, and playing pick-up games. The people at Loading Ready Run have played a couple of sessions, and discussed it on their casual magic podcast, TapTapConcede. You can also watch Ben Wheeler play or brew Gladiator decks a lot on his Twitch stream. It's actually really, really fun, and scratches that eternal format itch a lot better than Historic imo.

I wonder if "Threaten, but able to hit Planeswalkers" would be good in Standard. Not a lot of ways to sac PWs, but if you grab them when their loyalty is at the right point...

D&D is probably still a rounding error to Hasbro as a business unit, but it has massive popular cachet right now and an oversized impact on content creation. I'm sure some market analysts has a bunch of very colorful slideshows about getting Adventure Zone and Critical Role fans hooked on the cardboard crack.

And it's not like turn 3 Throng is a slam dunk either. Definitely not worth the ~1/5 chance you don't draw into your 3rd land by turn 3.

I think what I like most about Gladiator is that your 'pile of good cards and/or cards I like' can actually hold it's own. I'm currently running a Rakdos Sacrifice deck, and getting to play every Standard sac deck from the last three years at once makes me nostalgic. Turns out Witches Oven and Oni-Cult Anvil make a really great combo with each other.

Mulligans are also a huge deal on a singleton format, hand smoothing would drastically change the format.
