Value cards —July 11, 2016
Finally got a playset of Serum Vision, they go right into this deck. Also the Artful Dodges are now replaced with Slip Through Space for the cantrip vs flashback. Not entirely sure if I should run only Slip Through Space, only Artful Dodge or something like a mixing them for a total of 5-6 spells for unblockable. I have to consider that I already run Apostle's Blessing, which doubles as protection and making creatures unblockable. Distortion Strike is also an option.
I also got 4 Monastery Swiftspear replacing Nivix Cyclops. Guess I have to rename the deck...
Crimson Wisps has stolen games from a burn opponent of mine. I would have died on his next turn but I could play a Kiln Fiend, give it haste and swing for the win. Still, apart from the card draw its a useless card if I can't target anything but Monastery Switfspear. So, I might look into replacing it with something more synergistic.

Blistercoil Weird instead of Nivix Cyclops? Or maybe the Cyclops just as a 2-of. Because of the low land count Nivix Cyclops is pretty terrible as you often cannot do anything else but cast him and hope he survives your opponents turn so you get to attack. Blistercoil Weird would be easier to manage mana-wise and could be used as a blocker the turn after it attacked because of the untap ability.

Just noticed, if I replace Shivan Reef and Wild Slash the deck could be pauper legal... not counting the sideboard.
