Fish Five-0: Grandpa Tribal (Standard)

by TheAsianAvenger // Apr 21, 2022

Gameplan

Our deck at its core is a tempo deck. We're jam-packed with all of our favorite wizened creatures!

$ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00

We've got a relatively high count of spells to make sure we flip our Delver of Secrets. We've even gone down a ton of lands to play MDFCs like Jwari Disruption. These spells will synergize with cards like Poppet Stitcher & Sedgemoor Witch . We're hoping to go wide with a ton of tokens and then Poppet Stitcher should allow us to start Poppet off by turning all of those decayed zombies and pests into 3/3 beaters. We've also got another wonderful grandpa in Malevolent Hermit to counter any big noncreature spells and give us time!

Conclusion

This deck doesn't have any auto-wins in the meta and you'll probably fight for your life for a positive win percentage but it's so much fun. If you're looking to grind and earn every win, this is the deck for you! Hopefully your luck with Delver is better than mine so good luck flipping and have fun.
