Deck Notes
Azorius is certainly a popular color for Standard and Modern these days, and clearly for good reason. The White and Blue combo can dish out some surprisingly beefy damage while still playing the control game. Rockstars in this deck are definitely Harbin, with his ability to let all your Soldiers take flight, and the Knight-Errant, who lets you play him basically for free and then generate value off his cast. Your opponent won’t know what hit them until it’s far too late.
MTG is ever-changing, with new busted and broken cards rising to the top. Check back in next week for the upcoming top deck.
