For a deck to be considered mythic tier, it requires consistency, ramp, and of course responses to whatever threats it may face. Mythic rank is earned from countless games and hours of deck building to try and get that perfect built to climb the ranks. You may recognize some of these decks from other lists I have done. This is because they perform what they promise. Here are the top ten decks that will let you wreck hard and earn that mythic rank.
