Goldfish Gladiators: Torgaar Thud (Standard, Arena)

by SaffronOlive // Nov 16, 2018

Welcome to Goldfish Gladiators! A couple of weeks ago during our Instant Deck Techs, we featured a sweet-looking Torgaar, Famine Incarnate deck that was looking to surprise the opponent with huge chunks of damage out of nowhere with the help of Thud, but we never got a chance to play the deck. Well, we're finally going to give the deck a chance today by running it though some matches on Magic Arena! In some ways, Torgaar Thud is a strange-looking Rakdos Midrange deck, but in other ways, it's sort of a combo deck, looking to put the opponent to 10 life with the help of Torgaar, Famine Incarnate (for as little as two mana, if we can sac some random creatures) and then finishing the opponent off immediately with the help of Thud and Lightning Strike or big fliers like Doom Whisperer and Rekindling Phoenix. Is it time for Torgaar to shine in Standard? Let's get to the video and find out; then, we'll talk more about the deck!

Just a quick reminder: if you enjoy the Goldfish Gladiator series and the other video content on MTGGoldfish, make sure to subscribe to the MTGGoldfish YouTube channel to keep up on all the latest and greatest.
