MBD devotion is good? Really, who knew? Its just one man’s opinion, but instead of articles about the least innovative deck in the format, I’d much rather read about ideas that have some creativity and originality that might beat said deck.
Sorry Macray if this wasn’t what You’d be looking for. As I said, by this point everybody know that Black Devotion is a good strategy. The point of this article is to show why this version with no splash is the best among all BLACK devotion strategies.
The above reply was very rude. I am a newer player and liked the article especially the sideboard breakdown vs opposing decks. Not everyone in the audience is a magic expert here.
I am glad you liked it and it was useful for you SilentOperator! I Hope that this piece help you having some success with the deck and moving forward as Standard will continue to have midrange decks around the Thoughtseize/Hero’s Downfall backbone for sure.
