Introduction
Hello everyone. This is the Hareruya Media Team.
The new set “The Brothers’ War” has been released, and I hope you are enjoying building new decks. There are a lot of cards that stimulate our desire to build, such as planeswalkers and the first appearance of combined cards in a long time.
Hareruya Wayfinder is an article where Hareruya Pros, sponsored by Hareruya, introduces new decks for the new format.
The last article focused on Standard, and this one will introduce Pioneer and Modern decks. Please refer to them as one of the early format decks.

Izzet Spell
Click to Wide
When we think of Izzet in Pioneer, 《Arclight Phoenix》 is the first thing that comes to mind, but this build features 《Third Path Iconoclast》. The tokens this card produces are artifacts, so it works well with 《Ghirapur Aether Grid》! Play 《Treasure Cruise》 repeatedly to generate a large number of tokens.
Mono Black Aggro
Click to Wide
Mono-Black has got more powerful with 《Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor》 and 《Go for the Throat》. This deck includes many cheap spells to make most of 《Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor》. It is extremely difficult to stop this early aggression. From the midgame, 《Sheoldred, the Apocalypse》 will control the board.

Infinite Dungeon
Click to Wide
This combo deck secures 3 mana with 《Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea》 + 《Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy》, etc., and repeatedly ventures dungeons with 《Acererak the Archlich》. You can go off as early as turn 3, and this deck has good support such as 《Eldritch Evolution》 and 《Collected Company》!
Orzhov Humans
Click to Wide
Don’t underestimate 《Recruitment Officer》 as just a one mana creature. From the midgame, this single card will bring you creatures as long as you pay mana. It is useful anytime you draw it, and it shows its true value in grinding games. Even if it is dealt with, it can be returned with 《Extraction Specialist》.

《Glimpse of Tomorrow》 Combo
Click to Wide
The goal is to play 《Violent Outburst》, Cascade into 《Glimpse of Tomorrow》 and cheat《Omniscience》 or《One with the Multiverse》into play. Then you can play 《Archon of Cruelty》 and Eldrazi for free. Turn 3 《Emrakul, the Aeons Torn》? That feels great!!
《Shape Anew》 Combo
Click to Wide
A dynamic deck that cheats 《Portal to Phyrexia》 with 《Shape Anew》. It will repeatedly put 《Solitude》 or your opponent’s creatures on the battlefield to dominate the board.
Don’t have the artifacts for 《Shape Anew》? Don’t worry, 《Gingerbread Cabin》 will deliver food tokens.
Golgari Yawgmoth
Click to Wide
This is a creature-based combo deck with 《Yawgmoth, Thran Physician》. Playing so many creatures with Persist, 《Diabolic Intent》 isn’t much different from 《Demonic Tutor》.
The sideboard 《Haywire Mite》 is an answer to artifact/enchantment you can search with 《Chord of Calling》. Also, activate cost being just one mana makes it great.
Orzhov Blink
Click to Wide
You can gain advantage by blinking ETB effect creatures with 《Ephemerate》. But it is not only 《Stoneforge Mystic》 and Evoke creatures that work well together.
Flickering a Prototype card will return it to its original form. 《Combat Thresher》 is a good value Prototype that can draw a card.
This is the end of the Hareruya Wayfinder “The Brothers’ War” section. We hope this helps you build your own decks.
