Blistercoil Weird
: Get's passive bonus when playing other instants, buffing up other creatures or itself. Monastery Swiftspear is a fine upgrade to this and the best for the deck. (Haste+Extra toughness.)
Rush of Adrenaline
: Buff with trample? Delicious~
Brute Force: Needed for that +3 toughness in-case opponent lightning bolts or (somehow) has a high power creature blocking.
Gut Shot: "Free" spell that can proc our creatures, as well as nick opponent. Sometimes it just takes one more damage...
Kiln Fiend: Best creature in deck (or ever) hands down. Remember, every other non-creature card gives it a Lightning Bolt of damage on top of what they already do.
Mutagenic Growth: "Free" pump spell that you wish you could draw more than 4 of.
Satyr Hoplite: Our fiends little buddy. Satyr helps mid-game in-case that happens (somehow). It grows over time, so try to buff it while the Kiln is in play for duel threats.
Temur Battle Rage: Instant speed double-strike (almost always trample as well) is great, but costing 2 mana makes it a hefty price. Things like Fling can also take it's place in-case opponent has too many blockers, or removal. Can be replaced with a better one drop if desired.
Titan's Strength
: Another great buff that gets helps with it's scry ability.
Built to Smash: Yet another simple buff. Feel free to switch these out for anything in your sideboard.
Sideboard options:
Akroan Crusader
: Going deep not working out? Then go wide! Fun to switch this in the second game just to confuse opponent. Makes a lovely pair with
Coordinated Assault
.
Coordinated Assault
: Weaker buff spell, but great if opponent has blockers. Works amazingly with
Akroan Crusader
Fling: Opponent has blockers for days? Then just buff up a creature and toss it at them! This still proc's your creatures abilities. :)
Skullcrack
: Obvious.
Smash to Smithereens
: Destroy annoying artifact, while damaging opponent, AND buffing my creatures? Yes please!
