Today, we’re going to count down the five decks that I believe to be the be objectively the most powerful Standard decks in the history of the game. It’s a difficult question to properly settle – each deck is a product of its respective environment – but it’s still possible to try to figure out which one is the most powerful in objective terms. Additionally, card images for new Jumpstart: Historic Horizons cards will appear in packet lists at a later time.Magic players love to argue about all sorts of inconsequential nonsense, and something that really fires us up is the debate over the best decks ever from throughout Magic’s history. These packet lists are not card-for-card product displays but rather interactive lists of the cards included in each packet.
(Editor's Note: The packet lists below pull the newest printing of each card automatically from Gatherer, including printings which are not in this product. Jumpstart: Historic Horizons Packet Lists The five-color packet is just as likely to appear as any other valid. The five-color packet can appear as an option for your second packet regardless of which packet you selected first. If you pick the five-color packet as your first selection, all packets will be available as options for your second packet. If your first packet selection was two colors, then your second packet options will include one-color packets that are either of those colors or two-color packets that are the same two colors.Īll of the packets within these constraints are equally likely to appear.
If your first packet selection was only one color, then your second packet options will be either a one-color packet or a two-color packet that includes the color of your first selected packet. The options for the second packet are based on your first packet selection so that you won't be in more than two colors (with the exception of the five-color packet discussed below). All packets are equally likely to appear, with the exception that for your first packet at least one option will be a packet you've never selected in a previous run of the event (unless you've selected them all). Jumpstart: Historic Horizons will present you with three options for your first packet. If you haven't acquired these lands before, they'll also be added to your collection, and these nonbasic lands are considered before basic lands are determined for your deck. Packets you choose will add cycling lands from Historic Anthology 2 (such as Secluded Steppe) or multicolor dual lands from Core Set 2020 (such as Dismal Backwater) of the appropriate colors to your deck-cycling lands for packets with one color and dual lands for packets with multiple colors. When you play in Jumpstart: Historic Horizon events, you'll automatically receive a mix of basic lands based on the packets you choose, balanced for the costs and activated abilities on the spells in your packets.Įven better, you'll also receive nonbasic lands for play. That's another feature MTG Arena adds to this release. You'll notice that basic lands aren't included in the packet list. Reading across each row, you’ll find the card names and their chance of appearing in that slot in the packet.
