Timeless Tier List

The Meta Energy Aggro Deck: Boros Energy, but with Black! Mardu sacrifices some speed and consistency for Thoughtseize/other hand disruption. Many builds eschew Phlage and Blood Moon due to stricter mana requirements, which allows for a Lurrus companion. Mardu is better against fast combos and weaker against damaging aggro decks.

A Flexible True Midrange Deck: The top flexible deck on MTGA just gained Barrowgoyf and Wary Zone Guard as high-value threats, which come down early thanks to the mana acceleration of Chrome Mox, Dark Ritual, and Deathrite Shaman. Recurring Strip Mine gives Golgari the ability to efficiently attack mana on top of classic interaction in the form of removal and hand disruption, while incidental lifegain punishes aggro decks..

A Disruptive Stompy Bloodmoon Deck: The Timeless meta finally has enough creatures for Fury to be as strong as its scam cousins Grief and Solitude! Magus of the Moon both counters and complements Strip Mines, buying enough time for Ragavan, Pyrogoyf, Fable of the Mirror Breaker, and The One Ring to create overwhelming value for a mono-red deck. Stompy starts strong and finishes with powerful burn.

An Interactive Combo Value Deck: Efficient card draw, tutors, and interaction enable the casting of namesake Show and Tell to cheat a game-ending permanent into play, usually Omniscience. Omnitell then utilizes free spells large and small to sift through an entire library and lock opponents out of the game with Hullbreaker Horror.

An Hyper-Efficient 1-drop Aggro Deck: Only slightly slower than the fastest deck on MTG Arena, Boros Energy boasts better mana and a stronger late game powered by a resource that’s nearly impossible to interact with. With Energy cards from MH3 (and only MH3), re-played Amped Raptors can’t miss a second spell for more damage and more card draw.
