Just tell people "lulz, card's bad bro. Dies to removal" and put on your sunglasses.

[deck]4 Elvish Mystic

4 Domri Rade
3 Ogre Battledriver
4 Flinthoof Boar

4 Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch
4 Overgrown Tomb
4 Blood Crypt

Mana's probably bad and the list is rough, but we're doing powerful things in the red zone.

I like where that's going.

I miss playing decks like this in Standard:

[deck]
4 Deceiver Exarch
3 Spellskite

4 Jace, the Mind Sculptor

2 Dispel
4 Gitaxian Probe
2 Into the Roil
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Mana Leak
4 Preordain
2 Spell Pierce
4 Splinter Twin

4 Evolving Wilds
4 Halimar Depths
4 Scalding Tarn
1 Terramorphic Expanse

5 Island
5 Mountain
[/deck]

Now look at the crap we play with. Fucking Thragtusk and Cavern of Souls, where the only decision is whether it not I'm far ahead enough in the game to name 'Troll' with my Cavern.

Fuck I am eager for rotation and the rise of Mutavault-Red!

I'm thinking I may switch to G/W humans. Deck is testing very well so far.

I'm too damn bored of current standard to innovate or switch decks... I might Just play storm for the last 3 months

Dudes, play 2/3 color burn with me. Young Pyromancer AND Chandra's Phoenix? Gimme.

hamfactorial · Postby **hamfactorial** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:13 am

As extra incentive, you can play Mutavault in a burn deck. Let the trolling commence!

Valdarith · Postby **Valdarith** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:27 am

But do we run black or white? Black gives Deathrite Shaman, Bump in the Night, and Toil / Trouble while white gives Boros Charm and Warleader's Helix.

DroppinSuga · Postby **DroppinSuga** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:42 am

If I was to do that, I would probably go black and never go back.

TubeHunter · Postby **TubeHunter** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:48 am

Mono red burn with vexing devil, r/b burn with vexing devil, r/w with vexing devil, or my favorite, tri color vexing devil

hamfactorial · Postby **hamfactorial** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:49 am

We should run Dega burn with 4x Purge the Profane, 4x Vexing Devil.

TubeHunter · Postby **TubeHunter** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:54 am

What could possibly go wrong?

hamfactorial · Postby **hamfactorial** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 1:59 am

I think the worst thing that could happen is we actually draw a Purge the Profane.

During my solitaire gauntlet, I find the storm deck having trouble with RG Aggro with MD Pillars (which is a sizeable chunk of the local meta in my LGS). Reforge helps them more than you. What's the approach here?

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:03 am

Gain life while your opponent loses life? SIGN ME UP.

Seriously though, considering:
- RW Token Storm; or
- Esper Flash

Valdarith · Postby **Valdarith** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:09 am

I'm probably going to play UB tempo or RB/RW burn until Theros. I really just want to play the hell out of Snapcaster until he rotates. Card is insane.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:11 am

But Blue is dead and doesn't get good cards!

Jack · Postby **Jack** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:45 am

Got bored, wrote a primer for my Krenko deck since writing a primer has been on my "to do" list for a while now. Check it out in the 1v1 EDH subforum!

Do you have a trial list?

Krenko' Command + Gather the Townsfolk into hellrider or something else?

Jack · Postby **Jack** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:48 am

@ham: I'd absolutely love to play burn in Standard right now. Problem is, I still don't have any of the non-r/g standard duals, and probably won't buy the checklands this close to rotation.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 3:10 am

@ Johnny. Yes! It's somewhere in the ideas thread. I *think* it was:

4 Young Pyromancer

3 Assemble the Legion
4 Battle Hymn
2 Burn at the Stake
4 Faithless Looting
4 Gather the Townsfolk
4 Infernal Plunge
4 Krenko's Command
3 Past in Flames
4 Reforge the Soul
4 Wild Guess

4 Clifftop Retreat
4 Sacred Foundry
9 Mountain
3 Plains

Sideboard
4 Hellrider
4 Intangible Virtue
4 Legion Loyalist
3 Rally the Peasants

Board it out and play charms. I'm already playing RWb so Boros Charm was an intuitive inclusion.

I'm taking night classes after work every day, so I don't get to play much standard, but this will be the deck for me for these last three months.

[deck]Creatures:28
4 Rakdos Cackler
2 Stonewright
4 Stromkirk Noble
4 Ash Zealot
4 Lightning Mauler
4 Chandra's Phoenix
4 Hellrider
2 Thundermaw Hellkite

20 Mountain
4 Mutavault

Sideboard:15
4 Pillar of Flame
2 Mizzium Mortars
4 Skullcrack
3 Traitorous Blood
2 Thundermaw Hellkite[/deck]

Might go to 4x Thunderbolt in the side if the archangel becomes popular.

I think Mauler lacks targets in your list, maybe he should just be (shudder) Shred-Freak?

Think you have enough burn for Phoenix recursion?

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 7:03 am

I don't think you need much; recursion is more if a free-roll imo. Probably fine.

Maybe Burning Earth in the board?

Kazekirimaru · Postby **Kazekirimaru** » Wed Jul 17, 2013 7:06 am

I wish Burning Earth has synergy with Chandra's Phoenix. =(
