🦜 Pirates are the best! Unbeaten and VERY Rotation Friendly | Thunder Junction MTG Standard Arena

Head over to / hexmtg and give me a follow! Gonna be testing my decks on stream before they hit KZbin
Subscribe for more Combos, Janky Brews and online Gameplay!
Today not so much a combo deck but a very synergistic one instead.
Pirates are the best Aggro tribe in Standard, hands down. They create just so much value especially as they are Outlaws too!
Run this one and you won't be disappointed.

I've just got back into streaming the testing for my decks over on Twitch! Come give me a follow and you can help construct the janky decks for KZbin. Link in Description where you can find my NEW Patreon details too! Have a great week folks

[@jmoney9494]

I have a similar deck but havent updated it since OTJ. Maybe a zoetic glyph to turn those map tokens into a creature

[@TheGreygoose87]

First 3 Match ups were WU, pixie, pixie. This deck, even when I flooded out still found ways to grind through these for a win. Love the deck. Hate the matchups arena give it.

[@carlwillingham2047]

Awesome. Especially good since it is rotation proof. Thanks for the great watch!

[@HexMTG]

Thanks! Yeah just a couple of lands and the surges should be all. Hopefully we get some cool lands in Bloomburrow though 😎

[@carlwillingham2047]

@@HexMTG agreed. I tried a pirate tribal when Lost caverns came out. Really enjoyed it, but was not very resilient. Will definitely try this version.

[@hiimdirty]

I know I'm a bit late to the party but torch the towers is a pretty solid replacement for voltaic surge after rotation.

[@fyrewaterr]

This is my 120 card deck. Part of the reason it's so big is to counter mill decks and b/c you can end up milling yourself for 40 cards. It's built to counter aggro decks at the beginning of each season. Deck 4 Big Score (SNC) 102 4 Blackcleave Cliffs (ONE) 248 3 Breach the Multiverse (MOM) 94 4 Brotherhood's End (BRO) 128 2 Burn Down the House (MID) 131 2 Chandra, Hope's Beacon (MOM) 134 2 Mirrex (ONE) 254 4 Etali, Primal Conqueror (MOM) 137 4 Field of Ruin (THB) 242 3 Bitter Triumph (LCI) 91 4 Haunted Ridge (MID) 263 9 Mountain (UST) 215 3 Sheoldred, the Apocalypse (DMU) 107 4 Sheoldred's Edict (ONE) 108 2 Sokenzan, Crucible of Defiance (NEO) 276 9 Swamp (UST) 214 2 Takenuma, Abandoned Mire (NEO) 278 3 The Celestus (MID) 252 3 The Irencrag (WOE) 248 4 Virtue of Persistence (WOE) 115 4 Ziatora's Proving Ground (SNC) 261 4 Path of Peril (VOW) 124 3 Debt to the Kami (NEO) 92 3 Gix's Command (BRO) 97 2 The Cruelty of Gix (DMU) 87 2 The End (WOE) 87 2 Chimil, the Inner Sun (LCI) 249 2 Hidden Volcano (LCI) 277 2 Hidden Necropolis (LCI) 275 3 Brass's Tunnel-Grinder (LCI) 135 3 Restless Vents (LCI) 284 4 Sulfurous Springs (DMU) 256 4 Abrade (LCI) 131 2 Sheoldred (MOM) 125 2 Deadly Cover-Up (MKM) 83 1 Plains (UST) 212 2 Long Goodbye (MKM) 92

[@Dasein23]

Never given pirates a try. I might, but I’m doing very well with Orzhov Pixie at the moment.

[@onecommentaccount]

What are the bad matchups? Discard is just so busted if they have to mulligan.

[@HexMTG]

@onecommentaccount I reckon mid range value decks. Golgari or non aggro Rakdos and creature lands/ planeswalkers. I feel the meta I've faced recently is very aggro or controlly. Seem to have swerved the midrange a bit

[@JJ-vn3xq]

Mirran Banesplitter instead of Voltage Surge imo. Instant artifact you can flash equip to a pirate (preferably one with First Strike) and synergistic with a lot of other cards.

[@HexMTG]

Yeah good idea. I wanted an option for surge anyway as it's rotating out and this is a good call

[@ispudy]

hi very new to mtg - what are the alternatives to those rotation cards? every bit counts for like a 1 week old player like myself

[@DjinnRummey]

I joined your Patron! Hope I am the first

[@seeker81323]

Great build! BTW - decklist link is broken.

[@HexMTG]

Thanks! I'll go take a look, I probably just didn't make it public. Keep doing that lol

[@seeker81323]

Fixed! 🎉

[@DjinnRummey]

I just finished my Outlaw deck! Have you considered Double Down with this deck?

[@HexMTG]

I did indeed! Was just a tad too slow I found and I have a fair few legends so overlooked it for this one, but I have a double down deck waiting in the wings using another tribe 👍

[@federicomeyerpose2293]

BO1 is not magic. Fun deck anyways! good job.

[@1who4me]

Here's a better Pirate Deck 3 Mountain (USG) 343 4 Island (USG) 336 4 Spirebluff Canal (OTJ) 270 4 Shivan Reef (DMU) 255 2 Eroded Canyon (OTJ) 256 2 Restless Spire (WOE) 260 3 Cavern of Souls (LCI) 269 3 Malcolm, the Eyes (OTJ) 219 4 Reckless Lackey (OTJ) 140 2 Take the Fall (OTJ) 73 4 Kitesail Larcenist (LCI) 61 3 Breeches, Eager Pillager (LCI) 137 1 Breeches, the Blastmaker (OTJ) 197 4 Spyglass Siren (LCI) 78 4 Staunch Crewmate (LCI) 79 3 Subterranean Schooner (LCI) 80 3 Goblin Tomb Raider (LCI) 151 3 Captain Storm, Cosmium Raider (LCI) 227 2 Scorching Shot (OTJ) 145 2 Phantom Interference (OTJ) 61

[@AdventuresInNerdery]

Thank you! I'm 4/4 in Platinum 4 right now with your version :)

[@KaoshiGatsu]

Hey, Nice deck! so funny to play. What about "Breeches, the Blastmaker" can be a nice addition :p

[@HexMTG]

I think I wanna make a whole deck around this card, you've just reminded me!
