Fish Five-0: Orzhov Super Friends

Gameplan

If you couldn't guess, we're all about our planeswalkers. But before we get to the planes walking, we take on the mono black creature package of Eyetwitch, Shambling Ghast, and Skullport Merchant.

These creatures combined with the Lesson package have proven to be a powerhouse. On top of that, their bodies help us stabilize in the early game while blocking for our Planeswalkers. Thanks to Crimson Vow, we've got two new Planeswalkers!

Kaya's +1 is probably better in a more token heavy deck but that's not to say we can't make a good amount. We do make enough to where the -2 seems like it could be huge for us if we're able to curve into our new four drop planeswalker, Sorin. Sorin the Mirthless might be exactly what the deck needs as it gives us a planeswalker that can hit the board a turn earlier and it's a form of card advantage! The one thing to keep in mind is to not be worried about losing your walkers as they'll come back later with cards like Blood on the Snow.

Path of Peril is our new board wipe that seems to be more like a balanced version of Damn. The card's non cleave half is still awesome as mono white and tons of decks are loaded with 2 mana value or less creatures. This card also scales great into the late game and allows us to sweep the board of any creature based threat for six mana!

Conclusion

Week 1 is filled with aggression and this Orzhov superfriends deck is probably where you want to be. Its able to grind out the aggro and control decks. The only thing is it seems soft to Alrund's Epiphany as our deck is aiming to go super late but we may never get another turn again. Regardless, the deck can beat a majority of the other matchups!
