MTG Arena Best Commons and Uncommons

So far I have spent a lot of time researching Magic the Gathering Arena and I have noticed that there is no real list of the best Common and Uncommon cards. so I have set out to make one. It is worth noting that “the best cards” may not be best for you. Its depends on your likes, dislikes, and play styles, After all there's no right way to play Magic aside from following the rules.

This list is written with that in mind. As such its not in any particular order, It is a legacy list, and the cards chosen are selected based on a few variables Mana Cost, Ability, Power/Toughness, and Ease of access are all factored in. With that said let's get into the meat and potatoes of the list, shall we?

[Top 5] MTG Arena Best White Green Decks!

The paring of white and green mana symbolizes a unity between peace and harmony. These colors are paired for their ability to protect and prosper. Gameplay wise, you get to gain a bunch of life and make your creatures grow to stomp. The combination of these two colors results in what is known as Selesnya. So, let us take a look at my favorite guild from Ravnica here are 5 of the best Selesnya deck

[Top 10] MTG Arena Best Bo3 Decks

Before there was MTG Arena, Best-of-three (Bo3) was the main competitive format for Magic. The main difference is the existence of a sideboard which is a separate pool of up to 15 cards from which you can use to change your deck in-between games. Because of this, decks that are good in Bo1 may not be good in Bo3 if other decks have a good sideboard against them. For this list, we'll be focusing on

The visual aesthetics of a game is usually a hot topic among the players. Having an aesthetically pleasing game is almost as important as having great gameplay itself. In MTG Arena, these aesthetics are brought about by the animations that play when certain cards enter the battlefield. Since the Arena lacks the interaction that we get when playing paper MTG, the animations help break the monotonou

[Top 7] MTG Arena Best Artifact Decks (Ranked)

Magic: the Gathering has had countless Archetypes over its 30-year lifespan. Tribal decks have always been a mainstay, and the same with control. One archetype that always shows up eventually is artifacts. Artifacts have been a powerful choice to build your deck around.

Here's the thing the Avatars in Magic the Gathering Arena are just there to give you some customization to your load screen and field while you play. Seeing as they hold no strategic value in-game and all of them cost the same price of either 500 gems, 3,000 gold, or 3,000 gems if you get the bundles.

[Top 10] MTG Arena Best Mythic Decks!

For a deck to be considered mythic tier, it requires consistency, ramp, and of course responses to whatever threats it may face. Mythic rank is earned from countless games and hours of deck building to try and get that perfect built to climb the ranks. You may recognize some of these decks from other lists I have done. This is because they perform what they promise. Here are the top ten decks that

[Top 10] MTG Arena Most Popular Decks Right Now

Magic: The Gathering Arena's meta gets shaken up so often it would explode if it was a soda. Shake ups sometimes happen because of new sets being released. However, Wizards of the Coast (WoTC) isn't above banning cards that it considers problematic for the current meta to remain viable. It doesn't matter if you're a casual player, newbie, or competitive junkie. Knowing the meta can help you win mo

[Top 7] MTG Arena Best Alchemy Decks (Ranked)

Alchemy is a new format only available in MTG:Arena. It includes all standard sets, however it also rebalances cards and uses digital-only mechanics such as Conjure and Seek. Owning a rebalanced card gives you access to other, pre balanced versions of the card. With that in mind, let’s take a look at 7 of the best alchemy decks. 7. Boros Humans Knight-Errant is a great way to build yo

[TOP 5] MTG Arena Best Control Decks

Bashing your opponent with creatures is one of the more appealing ways to play MTG. You deploy your creatures, pump them with some spells, and swing for lethal. Most people, though, get more satisfaction in winning the games with card advantage. Countering spells, removing threats, and annoying opponents are the main points of attack for control decks. With the current meta, both in Standard and H

[Top 25] MTG Arena Most Powerful Green Cards

Green is one of my favorite colors in the game to use. It represents the harmony of nature throughout the multiverse. The power of stomping behemoths and elves are under your command. Sure, you may be called a tree hugger, but you can send in the elementals to hug them to death. Ramping up and casting explosive spells are what this color does best. Show off that primal rage with this list of the m

[TOP 7] MTG Arena Best Budget Decks

As MTG Arena is an ever evolving game, it is sometimes hard to keep up with all the new cards that are released with every new set.

[Top 7] MTG Arena Best Artifact Decks That Wreck Hard!

Many archetypes come and go in the history of MTG. Some archetypes get completely shut down by the current meta before they even make an impact while some last long enough to become staples in the different formats. Control is one of the archetypes that survived many rotations, rule changes, and even bannings. Tribal decks like Elves and Goblins are tried and tested and are pillars of early MTG. O

All MTG Arena Draft Formats Explained

The draft is a format reminiscent of your local game store experience during pre-release where you get to open up booster packs and craft your deck using these limited resources. In MTGA, you can relive this experience wither with a pod of real players or against a bot. It is a surefire way of getting good cards in a set and it gives good rewards. A single pod of draft will allow you to open three

[Top 10] MTG Best Color Combinations That Are Great

Mix and Match The color pie is one of Magic: The Gathering’s most fundamental building blocks. Every one of Magic’s over 20,000 unique cards has a color identity, or a lack thereof. Mono-color decks can also be powerful, but some of the real magic in Magic comes from combining colors. Magic has a total of 25 regular color combinations. 10 of them are two-color, 10 are three-color, and the re
