Deck Notes

It’s nice to see Merfolk getting a bit of a second Renaissance since Ixalan. They received some powerful support cards, and this deck makes use of a few of the best. Tishana’s Tidebender can shut down your opponent’s win cons, and Deeproot Pilgrimage lets you grow your army with astounding speed. Your opponent will be drowned in fishfolk in no time.

MTG is ever-changing, with new busted and broken cards rising to the top. Check back in next week for the upcoming top deck.
