Stephen's Decks

Introduction

A page for my personal benefit, tracking new cards for my decks. I'll include links to my decks as well for those who are interested.

The information here is taken from the Scryfall bulk data feeds. I'll aim to update this page after each new set release; if I don't, give me a nudge! (contact details: I'm mrraow most places, including gmail)

Artist Decks

DescriptionMoxfieldReportDescription
Chris Rahn - Tazri, Beacon of UnityMoxfieldChris Rahn - Tazri, Beacon of Unity (Boros) UpdatedNot the weakest of artist decks; there are a whole lot of swords, and some big beaters to wield them. Not to mention Blightsteel Colossus.
Hello Daarkeness My Old FriendMoxfieldDaarken - Gonti, Lord of Luxury (Black) UpdatedThere are a few good cards here - and a few choices for commander - but far too much discard to fly under the radar!
Donato Giancola - Lagrella, the MagpieMoxfieldDonato Giancola - Lagrella, the Magpie (Bant)Donato Giancola is a true classical artist. What he's doing illustrating magic cards, I don't know... but I'm glad! The deck is weak but Donato is still illustrating the occasional card.
Edward P. Beard, Jr. - Palladia-MorsMoxfieldEdward P. Beard, Jr. - Palladia-Mors (Naya)Real oldschool EDH!
Greg Staples - Sophina, Spearsage DeserterMoxfieldGreg Staples - Sophina, Spearsage Deserter (Boros)TODO
Heather Hudson - Merieke Ri BeritMoxfieldHeather Hudson - Merieke Ri Berit (Esper)Quirky art, and a couple of standout cards - but not, objectively a good deck.
Jesper Ejsing - Koma, Cosmos SerpentMoxfieldJesper Ejsing - Koma, Cosmos Serpent (Simic) UpdatedJesper Ejsing has illustrated some amazing cards over the years, and is still going. This deck can maybe keep up with a low-powered table.
Johannes Voss - Esika, God of the Tree // The Prismatic BridgeMoxfieldJohannes Voss - Esika, God of the Tree // The Prismatic Bridge (5 colour) UpdatedAnother deck that can play with normal decks; if you can get a few shrines on the table, you're off!
John Avon - ProgenitusMoxfieldJohn Avon - Progenitus (5 colour)The one thing that you don't have to worry about here is the manabase!
Justyna and Piotr Dura - The Fourteenth DoctorMoxfieldJustyna and Piotr Dura - The Fourteenth Doctor (Ink) UpdatedPiotr Dura illustrates a lot of lands, supporting Justyna (formerly Gill) - she is a master of light and usually illustrates a couple of high-profile cards each set. Both are still active, so this deck will only get stronger.
Karl Kopinski - Krenko, Mob BossMoxfieldKarl Kopinski - Krenko, Mob BossOne of the few UK artists, he still illustrates the occasional piece... at the moment the deck is light on cards but I have hope... and even a bad Krenko deck is still a Krenko deck!
Kev Walker - Atraxa, Praetors' VoiceMoxfieldKev Walker - Atraxa, Praetors' Voice (Witch)There's actually some synergy here.
Lucas Graciano - Grenzo, Dungeon WardenMoxfieldLucas Graciano - Grenzo, Dungeon Warden (Rakdos) UpdatedLucas Graciano hasn't really illustrated enough cards to make a full commander deck, but Shadowborn Apostle fills the gaps and synergises with Grenzo a little. There are even some demons!
Magali Villeneuve - Shanna, Purifying BladeMoxfieldMagali Villeneuve - Shanna, Purifying Blade (Bant) UpdatedMagali Villeneuve illustrated my favourite land cycle of all time. She also illustrates a lot of legendary creatures, so lots of options for deckbuilding.
Mark Poole - Lady EvangelaMoxfieldMark Poole - Lady Evangela (Esper)This deck illustrates power creep like nothing else. Sadly, very weak by modern standards.
Mark Tedin - The MimeoplasmMoxfieldMark Tedin - The Mimeoplasm (Sultai)A little bit of everything.
Nils Hamm and fiendsMoxfieldSeb McKinnon+Drew Tucker+Nils Hamm - The Gitrog Monster (Golgari)The weakest Gitrog Monster deck you'll ever see, but the coolest art!
Pete Venters - Sengir, the Dark BaronMoxfieldPete Venters - Sengir, the Dark Baron (Black)
Rebecca Guay - Asmira, Holy AvengerMoxfieldRebecca Guay - Asmira, Holy Avenger (Selesnya)Iconic art, belongs in a gallery more than on a card.
rk postMoxfieldrk post - Kaervek the Merciless (Rakdos)Again, heavy on the hand destruction and a spiky commander, so probably not going to fluy under the radio. Not much synergy.
Rob Alexander - Rubinia SoulsingerMoxfieldRob Alexander - Rubinia Soulsinger (Bant)Most of the cards are older and no longer relevant; but the landbase is a thing of beauty.
Seb McKinnon - Aminatou, the FateshifterMoxfieldSeb McKinnon - Aminatou, the Fateshifter (Esper)Otherworldly, slightly sinister art with the precision and detail of a master.
Wayne Reynolds - Tariel, Reckoner of SoulsMoxfieldWayne Reynolds - Tariel, Reckoner of Souls UpdatedActually a Rakdos deck, with Tariel mostly a figurehead.
Yeong-Hao Han - Etali, Primal ConquerorMoxfieldYeong-Hao Han - Etali, Primal Conqueror (Gruul)An up and coming, versatile artist. This commander deck has just become viable.
Zoltan Boros+Gabor Szikszai - Firesong and SunspeakerWork in progressZoltan Boros+Gabor Szikszai - Firesong and Sunspeaker (Boros) Updated
