Thanks for your understanding, awesome deck by the way

No problem, I just hate seeing others arguing for no reason. Figure I may as well stop it before someone gets in trouble from an admin. Thank you for your understanding as well. When others don't agree with your opinion though, you can either constructively explain it, or just leave. No point arguing most of the time.

Love the deck, though I do not think it's legal in standard

Can you explain?

Not sure what you mean - if you have bothered to look at the spoiler it would/should answer all of your questions.

As of a few weeks, the cards from Magic origins have slowly been spoiled. A lot of the cards in here are here in prepration for magic origins to be released. So currently it is not standard legal, but in a few weeks it will be. If you want to see the spoilers, here's a link.

I feel like the forest and rugged highlands aren't needed in here the fetches should suffice but I definitely recommend taking out the lifeland

Nixin72 says... #13

Yea, I'm actually just dropping green :P without mana Mana Confluence and running so many double red cards and with Magmatic Insight, it's just bad.

Techmage45 says... #14

na I wouldnt drop green since you only have 4 green mana just have the fetches and a few forests and you should be fine also Atarka's Command is well worth it for the burn and ramp

Nixin72 says... #15

Atarka's Command is amazing. I run it in my modern burn and I ran it for months in atarka red, but I feel it isn't worth running in a deck that has no Dragon Fodder or Hordeling Outburst. And adding this is completely changing the deck. I spent a good amount of yesterday playtesting with green and I'm just not as big of a fan of it with this shell. I might go back to playing atarka red, only time will tell, but in this she'll, Atarka's Command doesn't fit in well.

What about Thunderbreak Regent to top the curve? I also don't like the land discarding spells when your only at 20

July 20, 2015 2:24 p.m.

Havok.Bane says... #17

How about a couple Avaricious Dragon? They will help out late game when you have no cards in hand and you're curve is low so discarding your cards shouldn't be a problem.

Nixin72 says... #18

@Oshi_with_an_O- I used to have Thunderbreak Regent in, but the issue with the two dragons (it and Avaricious Dragon is that they force you into a midrange grind, which is a domain that red can't win in. Red is good for being aggressive, but when it comes down to grinding out a victory, they have little hope. I'd run the two in a R/G deck that can ramp into them for t3, but they stall the game too much for mono-red.

As for Magmatic Insight, with a low curve and usually only ever needing 3 lands out, discarding a 4th for extra value has proved to be super good. Also, similarly to Gitaxian Probe, it can allow you to keep some really risky hands since it replaces two of the cards in it.

@Havok.Bane- As previously stated, I feel as if the dragons force you into a midrange game where red has a very hard time winning. In a R/G build that can ramp into them, they're really good, but not as much when they force red to play slower. I was super pumped about it at first, but testing has proved it to be underwhelming.

If you run into a late-game land problem, you might consider putting Aggressive Mining + Molten Vortex into your sideboard. Use Aggressive Mining for draw, and then discard the lands you cant play with Molten Vortex.

Nixin72 says... #20

That's actually not a bad idea... Once I got 5 lands, I could cast that and shut down so many decks... Control looses to resolving that in turn 4. Especially if I'm on the play. I should put that in...

There are no Forests or Swamps so the fetch lands are completely unnecessary.

Oops, deck used to be atarka red with black in the SB, need to edit that. It does kinda thin the deck out though :P

I think you should go 2 Anger in the side, with the 4th copy of Searing Blood instead of the 3rd Anger. I think in the matches Searing Blood is good, you'll want 4.

July 29, 2015 1:20 a.m.

Nixin72 says... #24

I think you're right. I'm actually considering 2 in the main and 2 in the side instead though. It's just a dead card against control. Although- you can target your swiftspear with it for extra damage with prowess. But it's still bad against control. I want to drop Magma Spray for the last 2 in the side. Thought? Magma spray serves the same function as anger technically, shutting down megamorph decks.

I like this build, very similar to mine though your sideboard differs, but a solid build. One of the things I would add is maybe two Smash to Smithereens to the sideboard for Artifact decks since we all know it's a thing people will be playing because of how well it did in the Pro Tour.
