Win Con: Two Copies of Wan Shi Tong (MTG Arena Standard Azorius Control Deck)

A control deck with very few win conditions you say? What about one where the only wincon is two copies of the card Wan Shi Tong from the new Avatar Magic: The Gathering set. We’ll also use the Lessons package from amongst the new Airbender MTG cards. Does this deck have what it takes in Best of One Standard on MTG Arena? Stick around and see!

I played Magic: The Gathering as a kid. Now I’m back in the game as a dad! My goal is to help new and experienced players alike to improve their skills. I keep a running commentary on card evaluations, deck building and gameplay strategy.

Please chat about any part of the video in the comments and I will gladly respond with my thoughts or answers!
