Temple of Malice as soon as possible of course. Could cut lands with scrylands, scrylands smooth out shaky opening draws. They work perfect in midrange.

I'm hoping to pick up the scry lands once they come out. The guild gates are just place holders for now.
January 29, 2014 3:37 p.m.
and yea I agree with above poster, with scrylands you can keep shakey low-land hands and scry away high casting cost bricks, lets you play lower land count and mulligan less.

Would replacing a few swamps with black scry lands work until the new temples come out?
January 29, 2014 3:42 p.m.
id just keep it simple with the 4x in color scrys but go up to 4x magma jet. Right now in standard im running 4x magma jet in RW elspeth/purphoros and the scry between jet and the land really helps dig through the deck.

The temples are going to be dropping very soon. You can even preorder the temple if you want from a lot of websites. I'd say just mark it down here, and maybe proxy in the lands if you want to playtest it.

only have to run 1 Elspeth, Sun's Champion instead of 2 because I can dig to it, little things like that.

Scry is a great mechanic. Now I wish I had preordered the temples for this color instead of the ones for my control deck. I'm going to try to convince my wife to buy them for me. Anniversary is coming up in a few weeks

NOT LOUD ENOUGH FOR TORGUE
HIS REAL DECK IS MR TORGUE'S SUPER EXPLODY EPIC BURNINATOR

Nice I knew I had seen another deck with his name involved.

I would recommend fitting 2 Chandra, Pyromaster in there, as she is a steady stream of card advantage that also lets you push through lethal damage. You may want to try cutting 1 Magma Jet and 1 Underworld Connections for her. If you'd like to check out my current standard deck, which is quite similar, you can find it here: From the Depths of Hell | Rakdos Control

TheFanatic Chandra would be great for here if I can find a couple for trade. Your deck was actually one of the reasons I built this one.

"Just kidding! F*CK THE LEGAL WAIVER! You're in TORGUE LAND now, sucker!"
January 30, 2014 9:47 a.m.
I just wish those were standard legal because they look awesome

+1 from me, mainly for referencing Borderlands 2. I LOVE this game.How about replacing Anger of the Gods with Mizzium Mortars ? Also, could you give a look at mine pauper library-exploding deck?

I'm probably going to completely side Anger of the Gods for aggro decks. There aren't a ton at my lgs but enough where they are useful. I need to pick up a couple more Mizzium Mortars . I will check our your deck once I get home and thanks for the +1

pingpongball120 that is the plan but my wife won't let me buy them so have to wait until the the beginning of March for my anniversary. If I can find trades for them after release I will throw them in sooner.

That's a lot of lands. It seems like 22-24 would be a better number for you.
