Wolf Blitz 75 cards, 15 sideboard 4 {Rootbound Crag} 1 {Kessig Wolf Run} 4 {Stomping Ground} 4 {Sacred Foundry} 4 {Cavern of Souls} 4 {Temple Garden} 1 {Forest} 22 lands 4 {Avacyn's Pilgrim} 2 {Mentor of the Meek} 4 {Huntmaster of the Fells} 4 {Kruin Outlaw} 3 {Frontline Medic} 2 {Instigator Gang} 2 {Champion of the Parish} 4 {Mayor of Avabruck} 4 {Reckless Waif} 29 creatures 4 {Moonmist} 2 {Full Moon's Rise} 3 {Boros Charm} 9 other spells Sideboard 2 {Thalia, Guardian of Thraben} 2 {Champion of the Parish} 4 {Lightning Mauler} 1 {Boros Charm} 2 {Rest in Peace} 4 {Burning-Tree Emissary} 15 sideboard cards Notes:

5-0 on it's first night. I don't usually play non control unless it's combo, but the key pieces are being used by the team so I threw this together 10min before the tournament. The idea is simple: be bigger than midrange and steal wins in game one with difficult to combat creatures then speed up or bulk up against their sideboard techs. For control and most enemy aggro I go full blitz siding 13-15 cards and lowering to 21 land.

I really like this deck, nice build and well rounded(: congrats

Thanks. Please ask questions! I will be doing a short and long deck tech video and I want to make sure Im answering any and all questions about it.

I actually just want to know how you feel  {Huntmaster of the Fells} is in the deck. A buddy of mine played this almost exact deck a few weeks ago and after some playtesting we decided that as odd as it sounds he rarely if ever cast that card, so we ended up cutting it and haven't looked back since

You cut huntsmaster of all cards?!

If you read his posts he says he sideboards in 13-15 cards (more then likely taking out huntmaster) to turn the deck into a blitz deck

Yup, hunt comes out in the blitz board except for against jund. Some matchups I need that top end and rebuild that hunt provides.

I was just asking how he felt about it in the deck and wondered if he casted that card if he had more than one option. When my buddy was playing Huntmaster was normally the last option that he casted. That's why we removed it. Just wondering if the OP felt the same way

It's usually the trump or the turn around. I like it in most match ups especially game one.

Main deck  {Burning-Tree Emissary} seems like it would be better it can control how your  {Huntmaster of the Fells} flips and into a  {Mayor of Avabruck} seems unbeatable

That's called Naya blitz. BTE has weak synergy if any after turn 2 with the rest of the werewolf stuff like {moonmist}, {full moon's rise}, and all the werewolf specific abilities. That is also why I only main two {champion of the Parish}. Blitz is an established deck that people think about while building, if I come running out of the gates with blitz it's a 50/50 shot of do they main answers for blitz or not which makes for a 50/50 shot of winning. I instead approach with werewolves for a few reasons. One no one builds against werewolves (jund couldn't side in their needed removal cause it was {victim of night}), werewolves are great midrange and have a good matchup against most decks game one (especially with access to {boros charm}), and finally it gives me time to see enough of their deck to be sure if Blitz, wolves, or a hybrid is my best bet for the next game.

You can see him?? : O

Yes, yes he can. You all can. I promise better sound quality in the future. Also thank you for the kind words, I enjoy sharing knowledge, but I have to be knowledgable to do so.
