The Definitive Branded Guide For Chaos Origins (ft. Sam Jiang)

Chaos Origins is here and it's flipping the format upside down. Algelechy, Blitzclique, Ritual of Light and Darkness, upgraded Elfnotes, Power Patron FTK — the decks Branded has to beat this format are no joke. So I brought in Branded GOAT Sam Jiang to figure it all out. He's created some of the best theory and combos that people use to this day for Branded, so I felt like there was no better expert to bring on to disect Branded's place in the new format. In this full Branded Chaos Origins Masterclass we cover everything: the best decklist, the best combos, what non-engine to run and why, the best spots to hit every major threat going first and going second, and how to navigate a format where one wrong decision can cost you the game. Whether you've been testing since day one or you haven't touched a card yet — this is the guide you need before you sit down across from any of these new strategies.
