Challenger Deck 2020 – Cavalcade Charge
For the uninitiated, Challenger Decks are individual, 75-card decks geared toward Standard play for the Friday Night Magic player. Each deck comes with a 60-card main deck and 15-card sideboard and is intended to be playable and competitive at a local level right out of the box. All cards will have been previously printed in Standard and are Standard-legal.
Cavalcade Charge is a mono-red aggro deck that is one of the top decks in Standard. This version uses Cavalcade of Calamity and a bunch of one-power creatures to go wide. The Embercleave that’s included in this deck is a staple for most burn decks in basically every format. If you like to watch your opponent’s life drop quickly from 20-0…this deck may be for you.
