Dies to Removal

Worth noting also, a reasonable amount of players where playing Flip Chandra, specifically the Chechz. It is a card that if it flips is decent in the mirror as it both pressures and controls similar to Pyromaster, but with a higher risk/reward.

More Chandra's in top 8 then Jace.

Scoreboard!

LOT of mono-red in the feature match area.

I just found that whenever I could cast them, I'd be happier with a burn spell to kill my opponent and the activated ability was at odds with using my mana on other things.

Cut a mountain for a green source, play the 3rd roast in your sideboard, maybe.

Good Luck.

Something non-intuitive that just occurred to me is that since we're running a bunch of searing bloods now, and more temples, it makes a lot of sense to cut the 4th lightning strike for the final wild slash.

THIS COULD END UP BEING JUST BAD.

But it makes sense in theory and I'm gonna try it out. Also, remember if you do this to add another card in the sideboard for the control matchup as wild slash is aweful there.

I like arc lightning the most because it clears outburst tokens and you can bring it in vs. control.

That and in a pinch it can kill a rabblemaster and a token.

if you worried about mono-red, cards that are great there include:

Arc lightinging

Twin Bolt

Scouring Sands

1 burn spells(magma spray, wild slash, fiery conclusion)

And in the maindeck, you can add more token makers.

RE rabble, I find myself regularly messing with the numbers, but I always keep some number in the deck because routinely there are situations that occur where you just play a rabblemaster and it wins the game.

I'd still want 4 abbot, but this list looks very good. Like...VERY VERY GOOD.

[deck]1 Lightning Berserker
1 Zurgo Bellstriker
4 Monastery Swiftspear
4 Abbot of Keral Keep
4 Goblin Rabblemaster

4 Dragon Fodder

4 Exquisite Firecraft
2 Searing Blood
4 Lightning Strike
3 Wild Slash
4 Stoke the Flames
4 Atarka's Command

10 Mountain
2 Temple of Abandon
4 Mana Confluence
4 Wooded Foothills
1 Forest

3 Roast
3 Outpost Siege
2 Searing Blood
1 Hornet Nest
1 Arc Lightning
2 Destructive Revelry
3 Satyr Firedancer
[/deck]

Pia and Kia was by far the worst card in the deck when I played.

Rabblemaster is worth running because of how good it is with atarka's command.

I'll post the list I'm testing in a bit.

So yeah, this deck is dirty as fuck.

I'm skeptical that Jasper built it right on the first pass, but that only serves to show that it's the truth.

The fact that we now have two prowess guys is pushing me to believe that atarka red may be the superior build if only because of how nuts command is with prowess guys and the deck now has eight.

If you think of exiling from the top as them same as exiling from the bottom, you'll realize that aside from scry interactions, it's zero use fretting about what you could miss on.
