kengiczar says... #6

And every time I talk to local players about wanting Mental Misstep they are all "no way to powerful brah".

Anyways awesome deck.

Thanks luisserpa and kengiczar! I appreciate the interest. your totally right kengiczar, Mental Misstep is really op. Also, an upvote would be appreciated!

I'm interested in Crimson Wisps. What do you guys think of it? The haste could be cool with Kiln Fiend. Also, it's a cantrip for 1 mana. Just an idea.

May 21, 2015 9:17 a.m.

luisserpa says... #9

Yes, I think that can be a good card for this deck, it's true, the fact that is a cantrip is a very good argument.

If you want more cards like Monastery Swiftspear and Kiln Fiend here are a few: Young Pyromancer, Nivix Cyclops, Storm Entity, Wee Dragonauts, Guttersnipe, Spellheart Chimera, Blistercoil Weird, Gelectrode. I know most of these aren't exactly the same as what you want, but most of them are really good in these sorts of decks, but a lot of them are probably too slow for this deck.

Anyway, this is a nice deck. +1

OstravaAllant says... #11

By the way, you might want to consider running something like Flamekin Harbinger to fetch the Kiln Fiend more reliably.

Mental Misstep is banned in modern.

May 22, 2015 6:15 a.m.

Minelia5 says... #13

Right, I'm not running it. It would be op in modern anyways.

This deck just seems mean! +1!

A couple things I havnt seen mentioned yet that are good in this deck as possible alternatives are Nivmagus Elemental and Death's Shadow a friend of mine has a similar deck that plays a lot of pain cards thoughtseize, fetches, shocks, mutagenic growth, dismember and so it's easy to get a big fat deaths shadow fairly early on who can be a threat of his own.

JAIL_HOUSE says... #16

I think this deck needs another 1 drop haste creature to increase the odds of a turn 1-2 win. I'd probably cut Kiln Fiend for Goblin Guide. Also you're pretty screwed if your opponent has a creature to block. Rouse the Mob or Temur Battle Rage might be a good inclusion. +1

May 25, 2015 6:40 a.m.

Minelia5 says... #17

Thanks for the suggestions Jailhouse. In my opinion, Kiln Fiend shouldn't ever be dropped from this deck. It's easy enough to play him turn 1, and very easy to win turn 2. I like your idea about evading enemy blockers, I think I might try Temur Battle Rage for the doublestrike. Also, I appreciate the +1!

Felixlives: that's really cool. I like both of the creatures, but I think I'll stick with Monastery Swiftspear and Kiln Fiend for now. Maybe I'll change it around some other time. Thanks!

Flappy_Meeps says... #18

Blistercoil Weird is another red one drop which gets +1/+1 from instant and sorceries being cast :). Also he untaps along with that!

Flyers167 has a very interesting deck called 60 Damage Turn 3 For Only 11 Dollars. I've been play testing it lately, and I really really love the concept, I just think that it needs a little more work and/or speed. But there are 2 creatures that react to spells in that deck, Kiln Fiend and Nivix Cyclops, the problem with the deck is how few creatures it has, it needs a few more, but you should check out the deck and see the concept, it seems his or her goal is to cast as many spells as possible when a creature who reacts to spells is on the battlefield while spending as little mana as possible, which is why he uses cards like Gut Shot which use phyrexian mana instead. I hope checking that deck out helps you though, its a great idea.

PoonDragoon says... #20

no Vexing Devil?And you call this a "one-turn-win deck"

May 27, 2015 12:35 a.m.

Minelia5 says... #21

PoonDragoon I don't understand. They'd just take four, which is good, but it doesn't synergize with the deck, doesn't up prowess triggers, and doesn't get better for each spell I cast.

Minelia5

You can make text large by putting a # in front of the line:

"#like so"

Without the quotation marks, and it makes:

like so

More #'s changes the size, making it smaller for each additional one:

like so

like so

like so

like so

like so
like so

There, I used 1-6 #'s, increasing the number by one each next line. 6 is the most you can use.

I find this pretty useful for deck descriptions, because I can make headings stand out more with a larger font.

ManaTitheGuy says... #23

I really like this deck concept. +1 from me. My play-tests revealed mana inconsistencies to favorably pull of turn one wins. I did nail some turn 3's (not bad either) and ~17-19 on turn one. Do you find Chancellor of the Tangle to be a dead card more often than not? it doesn't seem like this card is intended to ever be hard cast in this build. I think there might be better options for that slot. (need to ponder what though) :) Especially a 4 of. Love Gitaxian Probe but with phyrexian mana and that being the only blue card, I would consider dropping the blue mana options Breeding Pool, Steam Vents and Misty Rainforest for basic lands (to avoid all the pain) and additional green/red/black.. Just my 2cents otherwise I will be tinkering with this idea.. Me likey.

TheHroth says... #24

jdawg63000 makes a good point about Gitaxian Probe...you don't need any lands, and dropping them can make your mana both more consistent and less painful.

Minelia5 says... #25

yes that's true thank you both!
