The name comes from the quote on Crackling Doom. It used to be called "Doom and Dash", but with no creatures left with Dash, it doesn't seem right anymore.

This deck uses early pressure from first strike and double strike Warriors, burn spells (Crackling Doom, Lightning Strike and Kolaghan's Command ) and retrieving your dead creatures (Alesha, Who Smiles at Death and Kolaghan's Command to force the opponent in a defensive stance and finish him with Warriors, burn or Butcher of the Horde .

During testing at FNM, I found that this deck is aggressive enough to punish slow strategies and, thanks to Outpost Siege , it also has enough gas to win grueling matches.

The Cards

• Crackling Doom: An edict that burns the player's face and forces him to sacrifice his strongest creature (hopefully). The main reason to play Mardu.

• Butcher of the Horde and Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury as finishers. Strong, semi-hasty flyers striking for 5. The Butcher is the second best reson to play Mardu: it's above the curve and can gain you life if you need it to. It's not a Siege Rhino, but it dodges Roast. Works better with sacrifice outlets, which this deck now lacks, but it's a must-answer threats at 4 CMC.

Koaghan is basically a recurring Chief of the Edge riding a Lava Axe . It can also block Thunderbreak Regent all day if you need it to.

• First strikers and Double Strikers: Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, Arashin Foremost and Battle Brawler all have, can gain or give the ability to strike first. They can force your opponent to make poor blocks or simply make them unable to attack.

• Attack enhancers: Chief of the Edge, Sorin, Solemn Visitor and Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury all enhance the attack power of the previous mentioned creatures.

• Card Advantage: Outpost Siege . Basically draw an extra card every turn.

• Life gain: Sorin, Solemn Visitor, Butcher of the Horde and Seeker of the Way .

• Removal: the aforementioned Crackling Doom, as well as Ultimate Price and Valorous Stance to kill pesky 4+ toughness creatures that block your warriors.

• Sideboard: basically various removal spells for different situations.
