My favorite deck. This one is all about making creatures huge in absolutely no time at all, while simultaneously making them unblockable. It usually results in a T4 win a lot of the time, and even a T3 win with Kiln Fiend on the board T2, then playing Artful Dodge + Apostle's Blessing + Assault Strobe on the next turn, basically turning it into a nigh-invincible 10/10 boulder that double-pounds the opponent for 20 damage.

It recently had Wee Dragonauts as another hitter and Gelectrode for creature control - both bringing some extra oppression at about the fourth turn - but it doesn't like to be beyond turn five, mostly because I'm so minimally concerned about the preservation of my life total. Instead, I decided to exacerbate the recklessness of the deck with the addition of Gitaxian Probe and Mutagenic Growth.

If done right, on turn 3 I can effectively eviscerate the opponent for 40 damage with Distortion Strike + Apostle's Blessing + Assault Strobe + Gitaxian Probe + Mutagenic Growth, all for 3 mana and 4 life. Even more depending upon how many Gitaxian Probes and Mutagenic Growths I have in my hand. Retarded.

Also, I just recently added Vexing Devil as part of a cheaper, deadlier creature base. I figure that, along with Delver of Secrets , it'll help keep an opponent sweating about their life total just in case that I can't get Kiln Fiend out as soon as I'd like.

Finalized the structure of the deck, and finalized the sideboard (for now). After much brainstorming (lolz), I decided to have Gitaxian Probe and Mutagenic Growth round out my mainboard, with Spell Pierce, Mental Misstep, and Faithless Looting + extra mountains (for when I do decide to loot faithlessly) sitting on the bench. Shock is still in consideration however, as more burn can serve as removal, as well a means of dealing extra damage in case Vexing Devil and Delver of Secrets ^Flip are forced to hold down the battlefield.

This deck is totally prepared to dominate the first four turns. All of the time.
