This deck has been doing pretty well online. Placed 2nd in a 16 player cockatrice tourney.

There's a small learning curve. It's a pretty basic system. It helps if the people you play are willing to help ya out.

2-1 at gameday today. Got knocked out of the  top 4 because of tie breakers...

The shop didn't have enough people to do top 8.... BS

I lost my 1st game because I kept drawing tap lands.....

I've been really impressed with the deck overall.

Chandra's -2 with a  {Rakdos's Return} or  {Slaughter Games} is just plain dirty. I shut down plenty of decks by removing 2 of their main threats or completely blowing up their hands.
