There was never any doubt in my mind that Standard Super League was going to be sweet. Even if all that happened was great players playing stock decks I'd still enjoy watching it. As things have developed, Standard Super League actually consists of great players playing nonsense, which is also great!

Here's a screenshot from last night's stream:

Shenanigans!

That's Josh Utter-Leyton assembling the Become Immense + Temur Battle-Rage combo most commonly reserved for limited. You haven't seen this one on camera before.

This was mere moments after watching Gerry Thompson battle with a Dragons + mana sources brew against Brad Nelson showcasing the new Mardu Dragons deck. While the first week was won by Owen Turtenwald playing Abzan, Standard Super League is turning out to be a lot more than just a Rhino show.


The show happens Tuesday nights starting at 6 PM PT. I promise that it's worth your time.
