Burning-Tree Emissary vs Mindsparker
Deck Help forum
Posted on Dec. 8, 2013, 11:57 p.m. by TheBolas
This is my Mono-Red deck. I have playtested with each of the two cards in my mainboard and I love both of them. I currently have the Mindsparker in the sideboard and plan on main boarding it only against blue and white decks. What card do you think better fits the deck?
All feedback greatly appreciated!

Mindsparker just isn't that great, the only blue decks that are spell heavy these days are UW/Esper Control, where Supreme Verdict and the like are a very real thing. Burning Tree is way better for the devotion and tempo.

Having Mindsparker mainboard might clog up the 3 CMC spot of your curve, where Boros Reckoner and Chandra's Phoenix are, and I would personally say that both of those are better turn 3 plays than Mindsparker, mainboarded. In addition to that, Burning-Tree Emissary into Fanatic of Mogis /Chandra's Phoenix /Gore-House Chainwalker //Purphoros, God of the Forge are reaaaally good plays.
