  • Thanks! I would say the main thing that makes this deck work in Alchemy and not Standard is partially the meta game. WBx is currently very strong in Alchemy with Portent, Reprieve, Juggernaut Peddler and the Three Blind Mice/Dollmaker combo. Additionally not a lot of decks are playing planeswalker removal. This deck lines up against that meta game very well because your threats are just so efficient and you have a lot of answers for common cards in the format. So you’re frequently trading up on mana and either staying even on cards or trading up on cards as well.

    The 2nd thing that holds the deck together is Delighted Halfling. Since it’s a LotR card it’s not available in Standard. Being able to power out a turn 2 Wrenn frequently ends the game on the spot. Well not really on the spot, but they end up falling so far behind that the game might as well end at that point.
