I want to start a topic about what everyone thinks the next big deck idea(s) will be, what they personally think is best, and why?

K-RO

My personal thought is GBW
Plenty of ramp, control, and field play especially throwing in Vraska, and faith shielding a assassin FTW

I think vraska is going to be a big threat in the next coming months but if you can ramp out a lot of blue red niv mizzet can be nuts

Ive been testing a BR Aggro deck online since RtR was released on cockatrice, and as of now it's 57 wins 10 losses (I keep track to see what deck is best/I want to build IRL). It's only weakness is life gain, most losses come from not being able to finish off GWX Midrange before they resolve thragtusk/armada wurm/resto

Slaughter games as side board?? Stops life gain :p

And {swagtusk}. I run a playset in my sb.

Also, massive amount of damage to the face.

You do realize that I am playing a BR Aggro deck, that's not green, and can often win t5 or earlier, so thragtusk makes no sense and wouldn't even be able to be cast

K-RO

Aggro is ment for fast but life gain will stall, pull out slaughter games so you can actually do something

{Vraska the Unseen} is unlikely to be a threat. Planeswalkers aren't generally. A "threat" must be answered, Vraska cannot damage your life total, and must wait several turns before ultimate (every color and combination has an answer for that).

I think Esper is gonna be nice. Those 3 colors ({B}{W}{U}) contain control cards, control tempo decks have traditionally been the best decks. Therefore...using correlation for no other reason then I can't say enough "who knows?"

Calebestes

I agree with dude.  Esper is gonna be the best decks.     I personally enjoy playing y BR vamps and Jund Zombies.

I have an esper zombie/tempo deck

If I draw the right hand, it's honestly unstoppable by any deck

The synergy just works so well

Care to post it moth?  I'm curious. Lol

I have the deck posted under standard

"Esper Zombie"

But it involves Geist of saint traft and Rootborn defenses or messenger/cackling counterpart/rootborn

I'm either populating my angel token from Geist (honestly who needs entreat? :p) or I'm populating the token I made off the counterpart from messenger and pinging for constant two damage and then either way my creature survive board wipes with indestructible

Then I haw cyclonic rifts and snapcasters so it's like

"I can control your whole board and you can't touch me"

Bg zombies
Wur miracles
Gw aggro
