We spill the tea on Ravnica Remastered’s rarity shake-ups.
That makes for a lot of different archetypes for players to explore in Limited.
BetweenCondemn, Summary Judgement, and Devouring Light, white also hassome of the best removalin the set.
Signpost uncommons includeSphinx of New Pravh and Sky Hussar.
Signpost uncommons Nightveil Predator and Moroii can close out a game quickly once you get them into play.
Black/Red: Rakdos Aggro
This isone of the most aggressive color pairingsin the set.
The signposts for this color pair areMayhem Devil and Rakdos Firewheeler.
Both are great for making it easier to trigger your spectacle cards.
Enabling the mana discount that spectacle affords is the easiest way to make a winning Rakdos deck.
Unfortunately,this color pair will likely struggle against efficient removalfound in other colors.
While all decks benefit from finding rares in their colors, Gruul almost needs them to perform effectively.
In other words,you could’t afford the board stalling outbecause your opponent will eventually draw their removal.
Once you’ve filled the board,crack in for a devastating attackusing cards likeOverwhelmor Angelic Exaltation.
White/Black: Orzhov Life Gain
A slow and painful death awaits opponents of the Orzhov guild.
Thesignposts in Orzhov are very hit or miss.
That being said,they are both very powerful cards if you could set them up properly.
Red/Blue: Izzet Spells
Another classic color pair archetype.
Izzet players will havemore instant and sorcery spellsin their decks than creatures.
We’ve already seenthe absurd strength of the signpost Crackling Drakein other recent limited formats.
This flier will easily attack for five or more damage in the air by turn six.
The other signpostIzzet Charm has lots of welcome usesand showcases the versatility of this color pair.
You’ll need a lot of card draw if you don’t want to fizzle out.
Green/Black: Golgari Graveyard
The well-beloveddredge mechanicmakes a return in this set.
SignpostsGolgari Findbroker and Putrefy are both great cards in their own right, graveyard recursion theme aside.
This isan aggressive deck that also seeks to go wide with tokens to take advantage of the battalion mechanic.
SignpostsTruefire Captain and Lightning Helix are just generically good cardswhich as we saw with Golgari is a great boon.
All in all,this gives the impression of one of the better color pairs.
Buy enough time for your creatures to grow to unassailable sizes usingbounce effects and counterspells.
On the other hand,the Sharktocrab signpost is a great finisherfor this deck.
That being said,this is an ill-advised archetype for all but the bravest and most knowledgeable of players.
you should probably cast some very powerful cards if you’re going to make this strategy worth it.
