Much Abrew: Splendid Temur (Standard)

by SaffronOlive // Jun 12, 2017

Hello, everyone! Welcome to another episode of Much Abrew About Nothing. Last week during our Instant Deck Tech, it was our Standard option—Splendid Temur—that came out on top fairly easily, which means this week, we are heading to Amonkhet Standard to see if the plan of using Splendid Reclamation as a massive ramp spell can actually work in the format. On paper, the deck looks a bit weird, running cards like Contingency Plan to get lands in the graveyard to reanimate, so hopefully this is one of those cases where the deck plays more powerfully than it reads. The good news is we get a strong late game, highlighted by World Breaker and Part the Waterveil, to help us close out the game after we resolve a Splendid Reclamation. Will the deck be able to compete in the Aetherworks Marvel-infested waters of Standard? Let's get to the videos and find out; then, we'll have some quick thoughts on the deck!
