Arcwing Uro-Ghoul

Standard UBRG

Ok, so I have to admit right off of the bat that this thing is ambitious. It tries to do a lot...maybe more than one deck should be able to do. I also have to admit that this is not competitive tier as of right now.

BUT OH MY GOD IS IT FUN

When M21 released on MTG Arena, I had a few cards that struck me from the beginning. Two of the big ones were Stormwing Entity and Silversmote Ghoul. I began a few decklists to stretch what these cards could do, which resulted in a Temur spellslinger style deck that could get Stormwing Entity out on turn 2 with Rosethorn Acolyte's adventure ability, and a Sultai Self-Mill style deck that used Creeping Chill and Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath as reliable ways to get Silversmote Ghoul back onto the battlefield. Both decks were okay on their own and could probably be reworked to be more efficient, but on the other hand why not just SMASH THEM TOGETHER INTO ONE DECK?!?

Ok, maybe there are some good reasons not to do that. But if you have the resources to build this deck in some capacity, I suggest you at least give it a run.

EDIT 1:

-2 Drowned Secrets -1 Opt -1 Rosethorn Acolyte -1 Silversmote Ghoul

+3 Unsummon +2 Flame Sweep

I was finding that having very little in the removal department was really slowing me down. Everything in our deck beside Silversmote Ghoul survives Flame Sweep and that saves us a lot against the more aggressive strategies. Unsummon is only temporary removal, but it is a cheap spell for Arclight Phoenix and sometimes all we need is that one extra turn to win.

Edit 2:

-3 Cathartic Reunion

+2 Thrill of Possibility +1 Brokkos, Apex of Forever

I kept running into the issue of having Cathartic Reunion in hand and not enough cards to discard to it (or at least cards that I WANTED to discard to it). Thrill of Possibility is so similar, but it only needs 1 extra card to work AND it is an instant, so I went up to a full set (I also tried out Merchant of the Vale for a while, but it does not count towards Beacon Bolt so I cut him out too). I also added in 1 Brokkos, Apex of Forever to finish out those games where they have enough flying blockers to make life difficult. It has been a very positive change so far.
