B/W solemnity control standard

by Trevorburgess on 12 November 2017

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Creatures (2)


Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This deck is designed to shut down all other predominaint decks in standard right now. It kills energy, and has the upper hand against aggro, gift, and approach.

How to Play

Preferably get honor guard or solemnity out early, then drop a huge ammit eternal, baleful ammit, or plague beltcher without the -1/-1 counters!

Use authority of the consuls and fatal push to shut down aggro.

Use crook of condemnation to shut down gift and scarab god.

Use doomfall and duress to stop approach.

And best of all, use solemnity to stop energy!

I just built the "Hunted Orb" deck from Giant Monster Games and I enjoy it, and this reminds me of it. I'm going to have to look into this!

I think you have x2 too many "crook of..." in your sideboard

Nice deck, but take in consideration that Tocatli honor Guard gonna be the target of every removal in the format.

This is a great idea! I love shutting down net decks. One thing, though. I'm not sure spyglass works against approach, seeing as it is not an activated ability.

Oh, you're right. I remembered approach as saying "When you cast this spell for the second time..."

Thanks for noticing.

How do you think it would go against mill?

I haven't really considered mill as something I'd run up against in standard.

I took this and made some tweeks to it and have had a fair amount of success with it at my store. My problem is when I go up against Temur Energy or four color energy, my opponent removes every energy card from his deck, sideboards in everything else and slams me with control and I get wrecked. Out goes the energy cards, in goes more planeswalkers, glorybringers, etc. So I'm trying to find an entirely new sideboard to do the same, and make it entirely counter-control.

Glad to hear you're using it.

Maybe try removal like Vraska's contempt in the sideboard.

Actually, I just put some "Never/Return" in to compensate.
