So you want to set your friends on fire, including yourself, while drawing cards, countering spells, counting prowess triggers, and attacking every turn with evasive beaters? Well then this is the deck for you! This is my attempt at bringing the U/R counter burn archetype to EDH. Considering how much life the opponents have, especially compared to one’s own, this deck isn’t competitive. However, the play pattern of this deck scratches my itch for aggressive U/R tempo decks without shelling out for legacy or modern.
