Our entire game plan revolves around getting at least one-and preferably two or more-of these cards on the battlefield as quickly as possible. The two most important cards in our deck are Beast Whisperer and Vanquisher's Banner. While it can play like Elf tribal, by playing some lords and winning by beating down, it's more often looking to set up a huge combo turn with a huge combo turn where we make a ton of mana, draw a ton of cards, and eventually pump our Elves into huge game-ending threats. Budget Magic: Elfball (Standard)Įlfball is basically a hybrid tribal-combo deck.

So today, we're giving Arena another shot but in a best-of-three competitive constructed event. Oh yeah, one other thing. Last week, we tried Budget Magic on Magic Arena, and while the feedback was mixed, one thing everyone agreed on was that we needed to be playing best-of-three matches. Can a combo build of Elves work in Standard? Let's get to the video and find out then, we'll talk more about the deck!

Then, we close out the game by attacking with a huge board full of Elves! In many ways, Elfball is the Guilds of Ravnica Standard version of some of the scary combo Elf decks we see in older formats like Modern, Legacy, and even Commander, looking rather tame and underpowered until it eventually just wins out of nowhere. Эзен, Budget Magic lovers, it's that time once again! This week, we're heading again into the sweet world of Guilds of Ravnica Standard for a deck that walks the line between tribal and combo: Elfball! The main idea is pretty simple: we make a ton of mana super-quickly, play either a Beast Whisperer or Vanquisher's Banner to start drawing cards, and hopefully play through pretty much our entire deck in one big combo turn.
