Dies to Removal

if hexproof decks start popping up everywhere, think glaring spotlight might be good tech?

sideboard tech, that he brought in in rd10 @feature match

awesome work zem! eat them up!

hey alex, are you running 2/2 split in lands (muta/swamp)? you don't have it listed in your list

ah cool, thanks alex

have you thought of 4 firedrinkers/2 cacklers for the extra damage whenever you have extra mana? or do you feel that you always have things to play?

I wouldn't have DD at all. @MDU you r2 of your most recent videos: I think you get a little risky by putting out 2 pyromancers together. Also, I tend not to like play YP$ on T2. U usually wait for a demon to appear so I can play YP$ then use burn to get a token. If they have open mana on t2, you ca...

yeah, mdu recommended spike jesters, I just wanted to try out YP. I kept 2 shocks just in case I needed a cheap 2-1 on bigger creatures that I always had problems with (obz) and to killing mana dorks early. I might drop the chains to add more UPs or downfalls (I tried a singleton downfall which was ...

dega midrange-burn, haven't had much playtesting yet. went 3-0 against rw burn and 1-1 against mbd preboard the only chance I had to play it. I did pick up an obz recently that I'd like to try in my list, but there's nothing that I want to cut right now. Creature (14) 2x Blood Baron of Vizkopa 2x Bo...

in your situation, the next best 1 drops would be cacklers if you don't have any firedrinkers

If you manage to get a obzedat burn build working (that would be a hard feat in regard to the mana) I'll be VERY impressed. yeah I know it's really iffy, but might as well try stuff out if I can pick one up, haha. been thinking about aurelia, but it feels more of a win-more card. might add an erebo...

@Googims:

Elspeth, would improve the Gx and Bx MU so its a fine suggestion

I also might add a single obzedat, -1 mountain +1 godless shrine, might try fitting in 1-2 RRs.
probably drop the shocks to 2, helix's to 2/3
rework the sideboard for my lgs and play the shit out of this deck.

hey mdu, would the only changes you'd make to the dega burn draft#2 be malice temples? I'm actually really interested in playing this, will probably stick to playing dega this time around The build is really flexible since Rwb has allot to offer in standard, I feel like we really need brainstorming...

yup, he just updated his list with this post, looks good! he's going to a super IQ this weekend with this 75. [Deck=ThoughtXRiot's Deck] 2 Boros Guildgate 4 Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx 4 Temple of Triumph 4 Sacred Foundry 11 Mountain 4 Burning-Tree Emissary 4 Frostburn Weird 4 Firefist Striker 3 Ash Zeal...

I believe he's planning on playing +1 Ash, -1 Chain to Board, -1 Glare

@Alex
I'd be very interested in a modern variant for red pyros
do you have a list brewed up already?

too bad he just lost to another mono blue 0-2 in the last round, don't think he'll be making top 8.

@Crims0n MDUs playing with a new version over on big boros [deck=dmad422's Boros Burn]Lands 25 9 Mountain 4 Mutavault 4 Sacred Foundry 4 Temple of Silence 4 Temple of Triumph Others 25 1 Assemble the Legion 2 Boros Charm 4 Chained to the Rocks 2 Chandra, Pyromaster 4 Lightning Strike 3 Magma Jet 2 M...

@magicdownunder I just ran this deck tonight and went 2-2, kept some slow hands that pretty much lost me the game when I used my burn on creatures instead of face. I felt like if I played the 2 matches that I lost a little differently, I probably would've won (1-2 both games, won game 1 lost 2/3), t...

@TBuzzsaw
whats the extra guildgate for in the sb?
have you thought of any tweaks to it post-event?
any thoughts on rakdos' return, slaughter games in sb? probably not slaughter games if most of your matches end by turn 4~5

@Helios
I think he wrote that he won't be able to attend day 2

@Guttler
grats on doing so well! if only you had time to play the last couple of matches tomorrow morning!

BRw... I'm intrigued... I'll try this deck out when I get my godless shrines! oh you have 59 cards md btw yeah, I actually dropped the curve lol. I put in 4 minotaur skullcleavers, dropped the exavas, took the guildgate out and had 4/3 mountain/swamp dropped boros charm to 2, 4 madcaps. I'll playtes...

damn no footage on the top 8 match with james kerr's r/w pyrodragon with 1 of pyreshaman [deck]Creatures (21) 4 Ash Zealot 4 Chandra's Phoenix 4 Firedrinker Satyr 1 Pyrewild Shaman 4 Rakdos Cackler 1 Stormbreath Dragon 3 Young Pyromancer Planeswalkers (2) 2 Chandra, Pyromaster Lands (23) 11 Mountain...

@MattT After trying to change things up for the pyroblack deck, I gave up on pyromancer lol. I went with your deck and tested it out, got pretty good results. didn't really mulligan much, and 3 pyromasters were awesome. have you tried it out with -2 saytrs for +2 stormbreaths? I would've but I had t...

@MattT
yeah, I read your posts on your recent experiences a couple of hours ago and redid my deck, I have something cooked up for tomorrow night's testing.. hopefully it nets something that I can work on

hello helios and thanks! found the search function and I've been skimming through the notes/builds @RaidaTheBlade I actually put in 2 temples that kind of slows down the deck, but there's no early hasties anyways so I thought it might be okay, I also took out another exava and put in a 3rd shock not...

@RaidaTheBlade have you thought about putting in a tymaret? with the 6 burns, pyromaster, recuring phoenixes and blowing them up after they attack if you have mana up for the turn? and with the young pyromancers with the other 4 spells, even more value with the tokens being sac'd? also if you want t...
