		<title>Dark Bant Summoning Trap (The Best Rogue Deck in Standard)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At a PTQ in December of last year, I met a player named Jherjames. He showed me his Summoning Trap deck for Standard that had done well for him.

		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s the spoiler season for Worldwake! Here&#8217;s a land that should be a fixture in control decks.
