The house is on fire

Standard Aggro Burn Mono-Red

qrjusz


Sideboard


I started to build the deck basing on the Secret Burn by Max McVety. Wanted, though, to use the power hidden in the Bedlam Reveler. So I added him in, then increased the number of spells. And once I had a huge number of spells I decided that Lightning Weaver would work fine too: so also dropped him in. And so was created this monstrosity of a deck. Am testing it now, so far not have lost a single game, there were a couple of close calls (staying on 1 life) but I managed to burn my way out of it.

The game plan is pretty simple. Once the opponent drops a creature burn it. He does not drop anything? Burn the opponent. Drop in the burning dorks in the meantime (Alchemist and Weaver). Once you are down to 1 card in your hand, drop that Reveler and fill up your hand with fresh and new burn spells. They countered something? Oh, just make them discard their hand! They managed to drop something big? Don't bother, go straight to face and produce some chump blockers with garrison.

It's not a usual aggro burn that kills the opponent in turn 3-4. The deck plays more of a mid-range style game. By turn 6-7 you should have enough mana to tap 2 Alchemists for 2 damage, drop 1 spell, untap alchemists, drop another spell, untap alchemists etc. There are games you can win with only those guys. There are others where you will swing for 11 with Abbot and Reveler on an empty table (because you have just burned all of their blockers).
