         *** LET"S MAKE THIS TIER 1 AGAIN!!! ***

Updating this idea from the wildly successful deck i ran to multiple consecutive FNM wins (1$t place) and a few tournament cash finishes as well (see that deck-list in the "MAYBEBOARD" section)

The addition of Faerie Miscreant and Bonded Construct from Origins just might make this deck Tier 1 again.

flyinnnggg... The Current Standard meta can't take a beatdown from 1 drop flyers. Seriously. Play-test this deck against mid-range or control...

so.. TURN 1: drop Ornithopter... the best card ever. Then play the Island, cast Springleaf Drum and then tap it and the Ornithopter to cast any 1 drop creature. RESULT: 4 cards played on turn 1. this is like affinity in standard

TURN 2: you play Darksteel Citadel and then Ensoul Artifact.. nasty 5/5 indestructible ready for turn 3 mayhem. Or... better yet. play Military Intelligence, and then attack with your two evasive creature to get that first sweet card advantage turn 2.

TURN 3: From here the game is yours so long as you don't play into a board wipe.

Any advice or suggestions are highly welcomed! As i do not know the optimum blend of tempo spells to creatures. thank you!

how many counter spells/tempo spells are needed in here? should i run the new Ramrolle creature in here? (will add mage-ring network once its in this database)

Thanks for your comments and suggestions!
