I love standard event videos. I feel like going for even money, then 7 wins, or even the coveted 7-0, creates mini-narrative arcs and tensions. Each win and loss has weight

One of my favorite content creators named Average Gamer only does videos playing events like these. His builds clean up petty well and he's funny on top of that. CGB's fun to watch no matter what he plays, but watching him doing standard event was all the more better.

Same brother. Got sold some real false goods from this video. Came back after a long hiatus from Standard, I love the Angels archetype so I was excited to craft it. Shame on me I guess for not understanding how much Standard has changed over the years - it's Modern power levels of cheap removal now. Makes decks that want to curve out fun mid-costed creatures just non-viable.

I don't even call the current white-red decks "Boros" anymore because Boros wasn't simply this combination of two colors. There was lore theme (flaming angels and paladin-like soldiers) and also synergic mechanics about it. From now and then you have cards such as Aurelia being a white-red that could be part of the "spine" of your deck, but you don't have many other white-red cards that synergizes with her, or even among themselves. Just search for double colored white-red creatures in standard right now and compare it with how it was back when the sets were themed around the Ravnica guilds. There are few of them and you wouldn't put most of them together in a deck. So yeah, this looks like a functional red-white deck... Boros? Yeah I miss Boros.
