In honor of the start of the Pro Tour Qualifier-Honolulu season, Daily Decks is bringing you some of the hottest Extended decks all week long! Fresh off his Pro Tour-Berlin championship, Luis Scott-Vargas continued his tear in the Extended format with a flawless record at the 2008 World Championships. While the super-pro stuck with a combo deck, he switched flavors from Elves to Swans. The Swans deck seeks to play Swans of Bryn Argoll, then play Chain of Plasma targeting the 4/3. By (literally) chaining the Plasma over and over, LSV could draw his deck, remove two Simian Spirit Guide (or play two Chrome Mox), and flashback Conflagrate for more than lethal against his opponent.
