This is the BWR deck I've been playing in Legacy recently. It's not terribly innovative (as so many cards are so strong on their own, they naturally show up in many T1.5 decks). Still, it provides the amount proactive disruption and aggression that I like. During 2004 standard I played BWR aggro sporting Savannah Lions, Ravenous Rats, Lightning Helix, Dark Confidant, and Umezawa's Jitte with the hope I could just beat people up with some disruption and aggression (considering any critter could hold a Jitte, all of them were threats in the triple Jitte deck). The deck held up OK against a variety of opponents despite being comprised of just the cards I owned at the time, and since I'm garbage at legacy anyway I thought it might be worthwhile to brew around.
