Alexander Hayne, team captain of Mana Deprived, managed to clinch Gold status in the Pro Players Club with a top 4 performance at Grand Prix Strasbourg. The format was Legacy and unsurprisingly, Hayne decided to pilot Canadian Threshold (RUG Delver), an archetype that he has been championing for quite some time now.
If you want to start playing Canadian Threshold for yourself and you want to know how to play it well, then you absolutely need to read Hayne’s primer on the archetype, where he breaks down how the deck is supposed to be played.
Here’s his latest 75:
