Since the cat is out, maybe moving from white to green is better.

Amonkhet Brews, pt. 13 – Mardu Trials
Apparently I’m not the only one who feels like Cartouche is a dirty word.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 12 – Faith of the Devoted
A less talked about card, [scryfall]Faith of the Devoted[/scryfall] could be the key card in a deck much like the more popular brewing target [scryfall]Drake Haven[/scryfall], but with colors I enjoy more in Standard. Not that the pair is generally very well supported, but doesn’t mean I can’t try.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 11 – Jund Toad
I’ve seen some versions of this deck out there, but here’s mine anyhow.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 10 – Monoblack Zombies
There’s a couple of pretty strong zombies in the new set, so perhaps the archetype would finally be strong enough, although I do have my reservations.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 9 – Liliana
Liliana wins on her own. We just need to protect her long enough. The state of the format is such, that this grindy approach might not work, but come on, Liliana.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 8 – Nissa Energy Ramp
No [scryfall]Elven Mystic[/scryfall] available, but that part of Standard seems to be permanently over. However, there is several fairly efficient manaproducers in the format, like [scryfall]Servant of the Conduit[/scryfall] and [scryfall]Rishkar, Peema Renegade[/scryfall] and then there’s these two:
There’s also [scryfall]Kiora, Master of the Depths[/scryfall], which might work, but I wouldn’t bet on it.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 7 – Jund Counters
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 5 – Back to Monoblue Brain in a Jar, Without the Brain
So, looking at Saffron Olive’s original list, we’ve lost a few cards, but not that many. [scryfall]Disperse[/scryfall] can be easily replaced with cards that are strictly better, such as [scryfall]Compelling Deterrence[/scryfall], but [scryfall]Mage-Ring Network[/scryfall] is a bit more problematic. Having played the deck some, it feels like a big loss.
On the other hand, there’s a number of cards with cycling, which could potentially be very good. [scryfall]As Foretold[/scryfall] can replace the [scryfall]Brain in a Jar[/scryfall], especially in an environment with rampant artifact desctruction. Mix of both might also be a good idea.
Amonkhet Brews, pt. 4 – Exert
I’m guessing most of you have already noticed the synergy between Exert and [scryfall]ALways Watching[/scryfall]. Well, how about the hidden mode on [scryfall]Blessed Alliance[/scryfall]? Cards with options are always good. Now you have a third one to use.
