Sideboard modified. How's about a few {Blasphemous Acts} for a 13 damage hit to a {Boros Reckoner} ? Mehehehe...

In the sideboard, is double white too much?
It might be... But since I have only 2 sundering growths in a deck, by the time I have one I should have 2 white to use it in the event that I do need it. It's only real purpose is if I play against a player with an enchantment that somehow totally fucks my day up. Like a {Curse of Echoes} or {Assemble the Legion}
Just play erase if enchantment is your worry, or warpriest of thune
It certainly would be a better option against enchantments but I think my bigger concern is with artifacts like witch bane orb. With that being said, I'd rather have the sundered growths since I can do both enchantments and artifacts, giving me a pool of 4 artifact removal cards and 2 enchant removal cards. Still, you might be right.. The 2 white could be troublesome.
Maybe a Hellion crucible? If you aren't drawing a lot of business it would give you something to put mana into.
I do have 3 of those... It is something to consider. Though given that must of my business cards are 2-3 mana and my mana pool is a bit low, I worry adding those might slow me down if I get it on an opening hand. I'll toss them in to see how they work, I haven't thought of it. Thanks!
What would you guys think about placing in 4 {Boros Reckoner}s? Three mana gives a player damaging blocker and attacker. I have pulled a Playset of those and considering their popularity I should use them.
Oh snap. Casting searing spear on Boros reckoner can kill him and forward damage to the opponent, and then trigger morbid on brimstone volley if I needed to... Mmmm surprise versatility.
{Chandra, the Firebrand} x 2
{Guttersnipe} x 4
{Increasing Vengence} x 3 or {Reverberate} x3

For all that, just play harvest pyre lol. Your graveyard is going to be so full of burn spells that you really don't care what happens to the once they are used, so just exile a ton from your yard an burn the Reckoner for a billion.. 2 mana vs 5 mana too.

Wait, really? I thought since his toughness is just 3, that is the maximum amount of damage that can be forwarded? If that's the case good god, I'm adding in two pyres and the recliners right away.
Also, I originally had 2 {Chandra, the Firebrand}s but I removed them because I don't think she'd survive long enough for her to be useful. I don't have many creatures that I plan to block with... Though I do miss her -2.
I already have the {Guttersnipe}s, and I know {Increasing Vengeance} is great for the flashback but it only copies my spells. Not sure if its a good idea. Reverberate seems much more useful.
