![]() Even though rotation isn't for another 3 months these cards have become very affordable. The deck utilises great Return to Ravnica cards like Detention Sphere and Supreme Verdict to efficiently remove our opponent's non-land permanents and creatures respectively. A deck that offers rewarding, fun and interesting sequencing and lines of play, especially compared to previous Giant Slayers. A non-aggro budget deck that can win against any deck in standard. ![]() A deck that has the ability to lock your opponents out of the game controlling the tempo of the game and the board state. A win condition that does not care about your opponent's life total. A win condition that cannot be countered. One of the great things about this deck in contrast to previous Giant Slayers is that it is both a budget orientated control deck with a combo win condition and it won't break the bank. It currently costs $14.61 recall that the deck cost around $28 at the time that it won, however due to meta changes and the approaching RTR Block rotation some of the cards have reduced in value a considerable amount making it easier for new players and older players alike to pick up the cards. This Giant Slayer was piloted by Corrado on the 24th of February 2014 in the Standard event #6767372 to a 4-0 finish. After a little digging I have found the deck. This is not entirely true though there was a Maze's End deck that I recalled that went 3-1 or 4-0 in a Standard Daily event. In a previous Giant Slayer article I mentioned that on a tight budget the reality is that combo and control strategies will be out of our financial reach ('us' being the poorer or more budget conscious players). ![]() Many people are discouraged by the cost of a reasonably competitive Standard deck and here I present to you a deck that defies the myth that Standard Constructed is too expensive.
