Instant Deck Tech video

A few weeks ago we started publishing daily deck lists on the MTGGoldfish Twitter and Facebook. These lists have been quite popular and we've got a ton of requests for video coverage. Well, your wish is our command, so we're launching a new series here on the channel called Instant Deck Techs! Each day we'll be posting a short, three minute deck tech featuring some of the coolest decks that come across the site. The most popular deck will be made into videos the following week, so show your support for the decks you like by clicking the like button, subscribing to the channel and leaving a comment! Today, Abzan Retreats for Standard!
