Hey I am back, after playing Magic less and less.
As promised I played my Enchantment focused decks this time. (Which wasn't very good for my ranking )
I encountered far less Artifact decks, but maybe just because of my low ranking.

Love it

/damnit, deleted everything, have to type it again.... -.-

BFZ is coming to toooown

//imagine here an awesome intro text where I talk about new matches, new decks, new cards, new ranks,... //

Finally I played 40 ranked games in the new (BFZ) season and can show you the results.

A user here wanted sometime ago that I play a Mill deck so I started with my Turbofogmill deck.
I never had the time to play one of the best origins decks, so at next I played an updated version of Megabeasts Temur deck.

Then I had no idea what to play next, because i think my other decks aren't ready for ranks and to show here (I still don't know what decks to play next time..),
so i just picked two very good decks from nga which I played with very often: my version of Kryders Gruul Ramp deck and RDW.

I started at Rank 1 (from zero to hero..!?):

UBG TurboFogMill [BFZ] 8-2 (viewtopic.php?p=393995#p393995)

1. UB Control Ingest - Win
2. B Aggro - Lose (Bad Draw)
3. WB Aggro - Win
4. WUR Aggro - Win
5. WR Aggro - Win
6. BG Control - Lose (Liliana)
7. WU Aggro - Win
8. UB Aggro - Win
9. RG Aggro - Win
10. RG Ramp - Win

Conclusion: Strong deck, but there are so much ways to counter it, so I am not sure, how this deck would work in higher ranks. Also I am not the biggest fan of slow control decks.
Rank 7

URG Temur Beasts [BFZ] 9-1 (viewtopic.php?p=393998#p393998)

1. RG Ramp - Win
2. RG Ramp - Win
3. UB Control - Win
4. WR Aggro - Win
5. WRB Combo Allies - Lose (Mana flooded)
6. U Combo Artifact - Win
7. BG Control - Win
8. WG Ramp - Win
9. G Combo Elves (Mana screwed) - Win
10. UB Control - Win

Conclusion: Still a very, very good deck, with nearly an answer to everything, but it still needs some fine-tuning.
Rank 15

RG RampLD [BFZ] 7-3 (viewtopic.php?p=394003#p394003)

2. WG Combo Renown - Win

4. BRG Ramp (Binderato) - Win
5. RG Ramp - Lose
6. UBG Control Mill - Win
7. UG (Mulligan to 4) - Win
8. WG Aggro - Lose
9. BR Control - Win

Thank you for reading.

Awesome. Did u update Beasts temur or ran it the same way it was ?

there are links in my post and you can click on them

after fine-tuning, i bet you can get that to a 10-0 run

What decks should I play next?

5 color control

This ^^^^^ and try an aristocrats deck.

I haven't been impressed by any of the aristocrats decks, tbh. We don't have everything we need to make it consistent enough for my tastes.

what?


i am neither a fan of control nor 5 color decks

You don't have to be a fan to play them.

Of course, if you're scared...

This: viewtopic.php?p=393509#p393509

Or this: viewtopic.php?p=393520#p393520

Both are aristocrats style decks. E.g.: self creature sacrifice decks.

Lots of draw, hard to play against, get up and running early, and then beat the opponent with card advantage. Both play similarly. I'd recommend either build, or you could try to make your own.

I only played this deck so far: viewtopic.php?p=389239#p389239

you could try this: viewtopic.php?f=52&t=10297&start=180#p393894

fun times with that deck

He's missing smothering abomination. It's one of the most important cards in the deck, I think it's worth it to try another build. Also missing Vampiric Rites, which while less important is also pretty crucial.

Darkstar, you play whatever you feel like buddy If you're short on ideas, here are some:

mono-red burn
izzet thopters
converge
mono green ramp
gruul ramp
gruul monsters
azorious control

that seems good to start...

Thanks for doing this Darkstar, I love it!

Very interesting data indeed !
Thanks

And Darkstar, if you need deck ideas I dropped a type-bomb of deck ideas here -
