ooh wow. that's creative not to say the least.

It works a lot like storm. I'm still working on different variants using things like Mox Opal. Earlier today on cockatrice I got the opponent to 5 life turn 2

scarsabrex

my only concern is does burn at the stake really work? i have a hard time seeing you run out more than 2 creatures.

Ace

I would have to agree, it seems like u really won't ever have enough creatures to make burn at the stake worth it's while. I think maybe take out that and put in something else.

Kaleo42

How often do you have to muligan? Also is past in flames really good enough for that many copies?
Love the deck btw, awesome ingenuity

Greg54js

Maybe replace {burn at the stake} with {bonfire of the damned}?

Burn at the stake works like a charm. Once I pull out the Kuldotha Rebirth and Increasing Vengeance it I have at least 6 creatures. Odds are there are memnites from earlier and its gg. If not I flashback it. The deck doesn't really make a whole lot of sense until you see it in action. As I may have said it works a lot like storm.

I really like the deck, I actually think I may take this and make it and try it out. My only question/concern with it is that it seems like if u don't get what u need first turn then that deck kinda poops out and can't get it done in time...is that how it has worked for u? Is it a hit or miss deck?

Lmao! This is what is destroying magic. People playing net decks.


Sexy deck, btw. Haven't seen this one yet. So hope people don't replicate it! Creativity +1. ^_^

What is destroying Magic is people playing the same 4 decks, this is not in any way shape or form popular. Its an abstract idea of a deck and people should see what kind of modifications the deck needs to be the best. But thanks anyway.

It looks fun.
What matchups do you have trouble with?

loop-s-pool

Control because of the occasional mainboard graveyard hate and also {Curse of Deaths Hold}.

Ok can someone please explain to me what these 4 decks are? My local meta is thriving with creativity and not because we're a bunch of noobs which is why my old shop was so creative, but because we are all great players to varying degrees and half of us net deck and the other half build creative solutions to the meta. (30-60ppl average at fnm)

Kuberr

I would say token, delver, pod, and burn decks are pretty much the most popular.
