New Challenger Decks

The new challenger decks were just announced! There will be four decks, each having sixty cards and a fifteen card sideboard. Each deck has a different theme, and the idea is that they will be standard playable right out of the box.

The four new decks are:
Allied Fires
Final Adventure
Cavalcade Charge
Flash of Ferocity

Allied Fires is a Fires of Invention deck with a heavy load of uncommon (and a few rare) planeswalkers. It's in the Jeskai colors, although I should note that the deck does include Kenrith, the Returned King, which has abilities that not every color in the deck can use.

Final Adventure is, like it's name, an adventure deck. It has a lot of adventure creatures, as well as synergies to go with them. Edgewall Innkeeper is there to provide some value and Lucky Clover can copy the adventure side of the creatures.

Cavalcade Charge is a mono red aggro deck....that's about it. However, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. The deck has a lot of full playsets for cards, which makes everything more consistent. The cards themselves are what you will find in a lot of mono red decks, and the deck even includes a copy of Embercleave. Honestly, to me this deck looks like the best of the bunch, and is the one I would most likely play.

Finally we have Flash of Ferocity, which is a Simic flash deck, but with only one Brazen Borrower. Although, most of the other creatures have full playsets. Even though the deck only has one Brazen Borrower, other cards in the deck are played in almost every version of Simic Flash.

Those are the decks. Some of the archetypes are not too heavily played in standard anymore, so It will be interesting to see how they play. That's all for today!

Pioneer

Pioneer, the new MTG format, was just announced by Wizards of the Coast. It has there full tournament support, and they have announced future tournaments for the format. But what is Pioneer? Pioneer is a non-rotating format, and the card pool is from Return to Ravnica and up. So that means you will be able to play cards from the Theros block, Tarkir block, Kaladesh block, and many more. A lot have been comparing it to frontier, and expecting it to fail, but there is a difference. Frontier had a smaller card pool and not a lot support from Wizards of the Coast. Pioneer is a bigger card pool, support from Wizards of the Coast, and even has competitive tournaments coming up. Pioneer has so much possibility, looking at all the decks from past standards, it's hard to decide what deck to play! Before I go any further, I do want to say that there is a ban list, but it only includes the five fetch lands from Khans of Tarkir. Which is fine with me, but at the same time there is so many...

Double Masters: The best set...Almost

     Double Masters is the newest Magic the Gathering set releasing on August 7th. Each pack will contain two of everything you usually get. So two rares or mythics, two foils, all that good stuff. The cards included in Double Masters are like a dream come true. Cards that have been expensive in the past are being reprinted: Jace the Mind Sculptor, Mana Crypt, Force of Will, Karn Liberated, Blighsteel Colossus, Dark Confidant, Doubling Season, Mox Opal, Sword of Fire and Ice, Exploration, Cyclonic Rift, I could go on. It finally feels like players will be able to get these expensive cards that they couldn't afford in the past. Unfortunately, the price to get sealed product is way too high. One booster pack, just one single booster pack, costs fourteen dollars! That is one single booster pack, not a collector's edition, not a VIP pack - one regular pack costs fourteen dollars. And a booster box? Well, you can find one of those for $320. The price is just way too high. Yes,...
