Best Standard Deck Bracket

We're starting a new project on Goldfish on Monday I'm excited about. Every week, two of our players will battle 2 of the 64 best Standard decks across the history of magic in a best of five, along a single-elimination bracket that will take us over a year to complete.

The first match airs on Monday: Vivi Cauldron from 2025 against the infamous Caw Blade deck from 2011, two decks that required some pretty severe bannings to stop them.

Wizards' Data Insanity

This week, Wizards announced it'll be publishing even fewer decklists. What does this mean, and why is it the wrong choice? Let's discuss!

Dear @wizardsmagic, @markrosewater, to whom it may concern,

As a political activist, I’ve started learning a few political code phrases and reasoning, and the decision to hide data comes across to me as not much more than victim blaming. I don’t have much to add that MTGGoldfish writer SaffronOlive hasn’t said in the article that I linked above other than a solemn point. Mark Rosewater has been asked a few times what would kill Magic: the Gathering, and his answer has never been about particular cards or the power curve. It’s about bad administrative decisions could sink the product over the course of a few years. I hope this is not one of those decisions, but I’m not going to bet on the house with this issue.

Sincerely,

A Concerned Player
