Burning Jab

Modern

Bluefire016


Sideboard


This deck is by far my favorite deck to use. One of the guys that works at my old LGS helped me put together a budget deck built around Burning Vengeance, and I've spent the last few years playing and tweaking this deck as well as putting some money into it and making it the deck it is now.

The deck is all about playing spells from the graveyard to trigger Burning Vengeance, spells with the Retrace ability like Flame Jab and Raven's Crime, as well as cards like Faithless Looting for the Flashback ability. Thanks to the Jund Loam deck tech I saw from SaffronOlive over on MTGGoldfish, I have decided to add two copies of Seismic Assault because they synergize really well with Loam, and do a decent immitation as copies five and six of Burning Vengeance, having six finisher cards has upped my consistency a bit and I have really enjoyed them in playtesting.

I use Life from the Loam to get more cards into my graveyard and to make sure I have the lands I need to pitch to the Retrace ability. I also run a variety of spells to answer some threats that may arise be they creatures, walkers, or even pesky enchantments and artifacts.

Sin Prodder works really well for me in this deck as his ability is helpful to me no matter what the opponent does because I either get an extra card, get in extra damage, or if I reveal a land and they take 0 damage to put it into my graveyard than it just means I can get it back with Life from the Loam.

I hope you guys enjoy the deck, feedback and suggestions are always welcome. I am still working on getting a set sideboard but I have posted some of the cards I have for it already, as well as the cards I would like to pick up for it.

Updates Add

I've updated the list to match the current list I run in the paper world, the most recent addition that I enjoy is the two copies of Seismic Assault. I enjoyed how it worked out for me in my playtesting so I decided to add them to my list.

I've also archived the comment section, speaking of which. As usual, comments and input are always welcome.
