The top archetypes in War of the Spark Standard are Mono-Red Aggro, Esper, and Gruul—but that doesn’t mean they’ll transfer over well to Singleton play. Multi-colored decks have previously struggled in Singleton, however, the WotS expansion is full of hybrid planeswalkers that provide a stronger balance which isn’t so hard on the mana curve.

According to MTG Arena, the best decks in WotS Standard for Singleton are in the archetypes of Mono-White, Mono-Green, Gruul, Merfolk Ascendency, Grixis Control, Sultai Midrange, and five-colored Niv Mizzet.

Of all the previously mentioned decks, Merfolk Ascendency and Grixis Control have the potential to dominate. Other types of decks not mentioned by MTG Arena which might be the sleepers in the upcoming Wots Chronicles Singleton tournament include G/W Proliferate, Superfriends, Jeskai Control, and Red Deck Wins (RDW).
