Well goodbye Lightning Strike but it does feel like Atarka Tokens may be good enough even without it since Drown and Bile are rotating.

Thinking of what to cut alongside Titans Strength for the 22nd land and 4th Thunderbreak. My instincts tell me to cut a Stoke as I dont really want to cut any of the early drops. Stoke is another expensive spell so I think cutting something on the higher end of the curve makes sense. Usually dont wa...

(POST ROTATION) JESKAI BURN

Good point, the less versitile your cards and less 1-of's the worse Dig is. I guess Jace slows down your clock but being able to flashback burn for the win and also pitch lands to find burn since this deck doesnt want a lot of lands like the more typical Jeskai deck seems good. Basically I think Fir...

Jace just seems so good in a deck like that. Wonder if Jace should be main deck to dig for burn and flash it back while you have Satyr Firedancer in the sideboard for creature heavy matchups. Wonder also if Dig through Time is better than O Command since you are putting spells in the graveyard each ...

Ok cool we are on the same page.

LSV and Finkle/Shahar were all on the burn heavy version but I'm not a fan at all n think mono red is just better than that.

Hows Harbinger for you? Surprised most lists arent actually running it anymore. I was looking at Stratus dancer in that spot possibly.

Mono red mana issues(always screw or flood n hella mulligans) are pissing me off to the point I'm off it and onto Jeskai.

It is a bit slower but does have 11 drops. Though the more I think about it wild slash is really good in the deck and in general right now.

What did you find it lacked against Abzan control? Dragon whisperer certainly isnt great but Wild Slash sucks in the other decks too and this one isnt running Slash main. I dont really see many of the other cards being poor in the matchup as the fliers seem good here too. Lightning Besereker still g...

Card was good for me in multiple matchups, mostly on the play. Was good in the mirror as well, just gotta wait for the right spot when your opp is very low on cards or tapped out. Also nice vs Abzan and Ux control decks.

It could be 3 Glory Chaser and 2 Beserker, I'm not quite sure but I saw more Beserker than glory chaser.

I think we've been on the right track here guys but I trust the pros that have been testing in a house 24/7 for the past week.
