You should make the featured card The Cheese Stands Alone

Why not Volcanic Fallout instead of AoG? Fallout hits players along with the pesky creatures and hits players. I think the damage to players makes up for only dealing 2 damage to creatures. Also, I see what you're thinking with Mutagenic growth but I don't think it's worth it. What if you top deck that turn 4 with an empty hand and no creatures on board? Personally, I think that the higher CMC of Flames of the Blood Hand is worth the topdeck burn and the anti-lifegain effect.

Volcanic Fallout is good and hurts Delver more, but I would say stick with AoG because of the Jund matchup. Just preference I guess.

And Mutagenic Growth is excellent in combination with Swiftspear because it more or less costs nothing. If they try to bolt her in response to you casting a burn spell, you can buff her in response to keep her alive.

A card I've been mulling over using is Leave No Trace for the Bogle matchup.

YamishiTheWickedOne I feel like Destructive Revelry works just fine.

So I've been seeing CFB play Combust in their side for Twin. What do you think?
January 28, 2015 12:07 a.m.
I wouldn't bother with Combust if you have Rakdos Charm. The charm does more for you anyway, it's basically an instawin instead of just killing on pestermite or deciever extarch. Also, I see why Growth would be good but I'm just not sure about the topdecking issue.

Rakdos Charm works better and growth is fantastic.

I appreciate your comments on my deck Monored. Please take a look at Link RDW "Monored" was built to test whether splashing colors is worth it.
Which raises the question: How strong would you say splashing black is?

cs510 I love doing it. But there are plenty who don't like it, and those run just as well.

what do you think of Volcanic Fallout now that pod no longer exists?

Anger in the side is pointless now that pod is banned.

I've been testing. You have a terrible match against R/G tron. It literally is just a scoop match.
What can we do to make it better?

Hope to kill them faster. Molten Rain is the best sideboard card.
February 5, 2015 10:22 p.m.
GlistenerAgent I need a better option than that. The issue is that It's my hardest match up (The team I play with plays Zoo w/out goyf, storm, affinity, and Tron.)

GlistenerAgent says... #21
But actually though. Blood Moon isn't that great for your sideboard, and you'd be amazed how much work Molten Rain does to a Tron player. Oftentimes you can get them down to 12 or so, and if you can destroy a land before they cast a Wurmcoil Engine you're golden.

bamfbanki GlistenerAgent is correct. It is enough to slow them down so I can kill them. Although my meta is completely tron-less so I have only played against it once, and won 2-0
February 6, 2015 6:11 a.m.
Actually; I've been trying Blood Moon in the side. So you basically (Depending on the match) Side out a portion of your off color spells and bring in 3 blood moon. This actually helps me. A lot.

If I had to throw in my two cents, Kataki looks okay on paper. Myself, When I see an affinity matchup my response is generally to side out my bumps and another playset to side in 2 Rakdos Charm, 4 Destructive Revelry and 2 Anger of the Gods.
