The elemental of surprise

Casual Aggro Budget Burn Mono-Red Tokens

Xavier2184


This is a budget version of the izzet elementals I made previously. By dropping blue, the deck lost its most valuable asset, consistency, in lieu of a much faster approach. Switching the deck to burn you can apply pressure as well as take care of early game threats with cards like Lightning Bolt and Shock, but even better than that, is how they allow you cheap ways to pop your Young Pyromancer and Hostility. Now the biggest problem i had with this deck is that you can often find yourself dead in the water for a turn or two, just waiting for the right card to come along to rap the game up quickly (usually Hostility). Sadly the only hand fixing you're going to find at your disposal is Flamekin Harbinger, Tormenting Voice, Gitaxian Probe, and the scry off of Magma Jet, in this rather limited deck.
