~Flamespeaker Adept
For this journey into the mysteries of Theros I have decided to unravel the secrets and to bring out the full power of scry. What might seem to some as just a way to deck fix, I believe can be used as a powerful weapon to defeat my foes.
Creatures:
-Flamespeaker Adept: Of course the hero of this deck. The only creature from Theros that directly benefits from scry. The more instances of scry the deadlier she gets.
-
Omenspeaker
: A 2 drop that is a great blocker and generates scry 2 upon entering? Yes please!
-
Prescient Chimera
: A decent flier, but ya gotta love that w/ him out every instant and sorcery generates an additional scry
-
Prognostic Sphinx
: Like the Chimera, Sphinx is a little expensive but with scry 3 off an attack he more than deserves his spot.
-Thassa, God of the Sea: Man I love this card! Its never NOT good. Free scry, targeted unblockable, and w/ 5 devotion a 5/5 indestructible body. Mmmm Mmmm Good.
Notable Spells: (Pretty much anything w/ scry)
-Magma Jet: No explanation needed
-
Voyage's End
: A nice little bit of utility that lets me bounce any creature. Mostly used against you but I can bounce my own creatures to protect them or in the case of
Omenspeaker
, to let me recast her.
-Titan's Strength: Its reds version of a
Giant Growth
! Plus I can use it to protect my weaker creatures from Anger of the Gods or Lightning Strike
Support:
-Aqueous Form: Yes I know that Thassa, God of the Sea grants unblockable already .... Just remember more scry is always better for this deck
-Bident of Thassa: W/ so many ways to slip past your defenses its free draw for me.
-
Ral Zarek
: A genius? Or a madman? Worst case he is a couple of Lightning Strike's .... best case I get a mess of extra turns. On a practical note,
Ral Zarek
Allows me to use guild gates and shock lands on the turn I play them or can give a creature pseudo vigilance.
-Anger of the Gods: Who knew that when Thassa, God of the Sea got angry it rained fire ... Anger of the Gods is such a great sweeper. One of the best for Izzet. Suck it Boros Reckoner!!
Of course your comments and input are very welcome.
