Xenegos, the reveler, nuff said...

Jesus! Hadn't seen him til I saw your post...ridiculous lol

You'd be playing a whole different deck if you wanted to play him or domri. Burning trees, 2-drops, Xenegos, fireballs, etc. Black would only be a splash

I'm def not putting him in this deck as there's not to many creatures...but I've got ideas brewing in the brain lol

LOVING the new duel lands in theros! Perfect for this deck

DylanW18

I thoroughly hate them. Guildgate + Scry should be uncommon.

I agree it's not good for aggro but it is great for midrange...but that's what they're aiming for in this set is to slow standard down

DylanW18

I know it's slower, which I prefer... But c'mon, rare? These things are worth $0.50, but they are gonna be $2-$5 because they are rare. That's such a price difference

Some changes...also replacing {manawelf sliver}s with {sylvan caryatid}s and {stomping ground}s with {temple of abandon}s after theros is released...thoughts?

DylanW18

Keep in {Stomping Ground}. Run both that and the Temple

respawned

wouldnt it be bad for every land to either come in tapped or cost me life?

DylanW18

Don't value your life total too much. That 2 life is better than them being an entire turn ahead of you

Pirate John

Value life to a certain extent. Use it like a resource, but remember constant use of it will eventually push you in the knockout zone. Running lifegain cards can help you find your balance.

personally, I don't entirely like playing every land tapped nor paying life to activate them. It's possible to play with basics.

You have to know what moves you take life for. Taking a shock to play X+1 instead of X when you cast Rakdos's Return is totally worth it.

respawned

Reason I chose stoning ground to replace with the temples is I'm guessing main reason I would shock would be for thoughtsieze turn one

One last question bout this deck and ill let this post die...lol...should I stick with {dreadbore} or switch to {hero's downfall} or run a mix? If a mix what should I pull? (Guess that was two questions but I swear I'm done now :)

Text on Heroi's downfall?

Exactly the same as dreadbore...destroy target creature or planeswalker...cost 1bb and its instant

Pirate John

I'd just play dread bore or whatever you have at the time
