Drop Savage Lands , you can't afford the tempo loss from it. Try Copperline Gorge in its stead.

Pretty nice. I really love the Myr Retriever infinite combo. In the end, though, its still a five card combo and I agree with OpenFire. You cant afford to slow down. The earliest I got the combo to go off was turn six. Average between turn 7 and 9. You'll need to find some way to control the board against faster paced decks. The Myrs still play as chump blockers and an early Fecundity will net you cards from that but you'll still get outrun. Shred Memory is a dead draw once you have Heartless Summoning because you'll pull the Grapeshot as the combo goes off. I feel like 2 would be plenty. Also, Commune with the Gods is not very useful as the combo will put the Retrievers into the graveyard anyway. That makes room for 4x Doomblade or other removal so you can survive until the combo goes off. Still, +1 from me.

good point OpenFire, I decided to drop Savage Lands for Gemstone Mine , since I need every land in the deck to produce black mana for the transmutes.

KSULongneck, I agree that Shred Memory is a dead draw once the combo starts. However, the combo cannot function without Heartless Summoning , and the games I lose are the ones where I do not get it. I will see if I can fit removal in the deck though, since I do have a rough time against aggressive decks.

HOW HAVE WE FORGOTTEN Myr Superion ? I'M SO MAD AT MySELF RIGHT NOW!

Thats good OpenFire. Myr Superion would be good to help survive until the combo goes off.

And you can beat down with it, because dropping a 4/5 on turn 2 is not a bad thing.

It would be more like turn 4 because the mana has to come from creatures but it still a big body.

Looks like a mean deck. I can't say I have any suggestions for you. Looks like you know what you're doing with the sideboard. +1

This is some nice stuff you've got going on here. I hate the traditional storm deck because there aren't infinite combos. Everyone know's infinite combo's are far better. +1

Wow, I just realized how awesome Shred Memory . +1

Why not City of Brass and Mana Confluence instead of the pain lands?

Thank you cmunn1234 and derKochXXL

Shanckapotamus - mostly for budget's sake. The only reason Gemstone Mine made it in was because I already owned a playset. Also the pain lands don't always hurt me, which is nice because this deck's worst match up is agro.

Love it. Storm isn't something I've ever had a chance to build, but I think this would be my first go round if I did.

Nice job, and I think people will be like "what the hell is going on" when you play a turn 2 win with random artifacts and enchantments. +1

Simian Spirit Guide would be sweet in here.

thank you nyctophasm and Lugeriman :D

boobsandbutts He would be nice to get the combo going a turn earlier, but drawing him during the combo would be bad, since he isn't Heartless Summoning won't kill him, so he'll be a dead draw.
to get red mana during the combo, I use Myr Moonvessel +Chromatic Star

have you thought about Hellraiser Goblin or Fervor ? I know it doesn't come up often, but ist would enable you to use the mana of your Copper Myr and Leaden Myr if you really need it.

why not try Bitter Ordeal ..

Frayace says... #22

thank you for the suggestions dejrgne
My combo doesn't need too much mana (unless I need to transmute mid combo or something..) so I don't think I should add more dead draws to the deck.

I love Bitter Ordeal ! I forgot it existed. It can definitely be a secondary win con in this deck :D. I can't decide if I'll main deck it or sidedeck it.

I am in love with this deck. I have been trying to find a way to exploit Heartless Summoning to the fullest. I believe you have done so. +1

how about Ornithopter ? :D

Ornithopter is nice, but it wouldn't die to Heartless Summoning :/
