MuggyWuggy

Added mantis riders, made removal a little more consistent, removed magma jets and added 2 sprays MB
Thinking about a dig thru time if I can get one soon

May have to run 2 or 1 mantis riders tomorrow, hope I can get some at the shop before gpt  ><

If I can get 4 mantii I will run 4 MB

Updated after gpt:

Mantis rider rocks face x4 for sure. You just can't beat that 3 drop unless you got a lightning strike, BBight, anger, downfall or suppression field and even then it's hard to want to do the card trade. It's an amazing rush counter to put an opponent on their toes. Totally worth it.
Ride down as a one of did some work today also, great for the unsuspecting opponent who has tapped out. And fell for the suicide attack

Added the 1 red drops and took out my dream cards (howl for horde, dig thru time, something else I'm drink)

Steam augury was great as a two of, if I started flooded with mana I was able to create some playable options

I took out narset but I still wanna play with her :(
Dig thru time was ok, but I think that's a long match card and the format seems pretty fast if you don't stop essential pieces

SB is a control approach, necessary for RG and RUG monsters, switched Daxos to here for swapping in. I still have faith in him, he was as much of a threat to players as brimaz. Life gain and deck exile is not fun. So keeping him for  mirror matches .

Placed top 25 out of 80-99 *not enough for 2k :(* with the assistance of bottomless mimosas

Ok I broke down and dropped a land for narset
Ill see how it holds up at MNM

MuggyWuggy

Replaced a forge with a shivan reef
3-1 lost to rabble 1-2
Couldn't get anger fast enough :(

MuggyWuggy

Updated to remove more dream cards, main boarding anger due to meta
Being able to wipe ramp t3 or goblins is essential. And being down a game in a match due to common meta is no good, I have to earn my g3s hard core and id rather 2.0

Threw in {clever impersonator} x2
Jeskai ascendancy didn't really benefit too much with this deck

MuggyWuggy

Took out clever and some other things, reduced land to 23, added two elspeths and am main boarding a negate and mindswipe for needed counters.
Reduced magma spray to one and added 2 magma jets for versatile burn/removal.

SB added Satyr Firedancer - love him already and I figure he's a good board answer for creatures as well as a chumper

MuggyWuggy

Updated, removed seekers, I prefer control and added the sheep. They just seem so solid for early life gain and cheap annoying blocks.

MuggyWuggy

Removed swift spears, complete dead draw late game
Added
2x cruise
2x banishing light

Mattao19

I feel like Dig is better than Cruise here

MuggyWuggy

Works great with steam augury, also don't have 2 extra digs

Also
Seems like that's your current favorite phrase :P

Mattao19

Lol I like Digs in more controlly decks/combo ones. To me Cruise is unreal and ban worthy but at the same time for 1 more mana you can control what you get lol :P

MuggyWuggy

True, I just also don't feel like spending $15 bucks more for the deck :P

Cuz then ppl be like sarkhan!
