Also, the new Zurgo made me laugh.
I got too excited and peed a little.

Are we talking about applications in burn? Because there aren't any.

If all we are ever likely to use it for is Skullcrack mode, we may as well just play Skullcrack and not deal with more spells needing green mana.

The card is great, even if it's not THE reason to splash green in Modern Burn.

Because Modern burn is the only aggressive red deck that will ever be

Saying there are no applications in Modern when the deck already runs Skullcrack and Stomping Ground is just imbecilic. Even if it doesn't work out, the application is obvious. but Jack is nothing if not an imbecile

Because we never know about it until you and zem start wink-wink-nudge-nudging each other.
But, here, have some attention.

I have drafted with Zem maybe 4 times
I have talked about my drafts without Zem all the time
now congratulate me

Lost the second one with the best UR deck I've ever drafted. game 1, get manascrewed. Game 2, get sagu maulered negating all my crippling chills and force aways. Doesn't help that both games he ice-feather doombladed my frost walker.

Atarkar's command is a strict upgrade to flames of the bloodhand. All the sensible burn players are playing Naya anyway. Will see play in modern.

Outside chance of being maindeckable in Green devotion decks. The ramp affect is mediocre, but the anthem affect is actually nice as a why for them to not get destroyed by mantis rider and generally is actually pretty decent with all the manadorks the deck plays.

Also does ridic things with elvish mystic+rabblemaster draws.

Ari Lax on Goblin Rabblemaster:
"This is a nice Magic card. I kinda wanna play it in Legacy now with Ancient Tombs."
A man after our hearts.

I've been playing it in Modern and it has been overperforming. Turns out IoK/Thoughtsieze into Rabblemaster can be pretty good.

I need to buy some of those guys, I've never had the pleasure of casting one.

Atarka's Command is clearly better than skullcrack because it circumvents leyline of can't touch me (EACH opponent), and if the opponent is not gaining life you can just choose 3 to the face + pump my team that can represent a lot of damage especially with swiftspear. The only concern i have is that right now i only splashed green for sideboard revelries (1 stomping ground) and i don't like the idea of going full 3 color because fetching sacred foundry + stomping ground every game can make you lose races.

Wow , Zurgo is good. Also he is a new commander for mono red aggro.

Atarka's command might be better then oujatais command. It's cheaper, the parts of the card work better together, and DAMAGE.
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2015 9:26 pm

it is better, but there's not really a standard deck for either

Atarka's command can slot into red green agro.
Whether or not you consider red green agro a deck is a different story.

Atarka's Command can also deal damage + allow you to kill your opponent earlier in land-flooded hands by feeding your ability to cast multiple spells in a turn. That is not an optimal mode for it, but I'm honestly just looking for scenarios to make all modes playable.

you can run 4 destructive revelries on 1 stomping ground, you can run 2+ Command on one stomping ground. Run a second stomping ground if you're super concerned.
