Scorchwalker in RDW

Deck Help forum

Posted on Jan. 31, 2013, 7:58 p.m. by 10vernothin

I'm thinking of putting in 2 Scorchwalker in my RDW deck; is that a good thing?

I feel like it's a Brimstone Volley on a body if you can get it through

Not a good idea. For something that trades with anything and doesn't synergize with hellrider or anything else it isn;t worth it. Unless you want to run some hound of griselbrand for the double strike, you won't want to play this card.

oh no, I mean to use it for the bloodrush cost, casting it as a creature only if necessary.

That's what I mean by Brimstone volley on a body.

Scorchwalker's bloodlust is awesome, especially if you're running Pyreheart Wolf . So, they choose to double block a biger threat or not at all, then BAM, five extra damage. Especially good on doublestrikers.

If you're basically only running it for its bloodrush, I'd rather take my conditional 5 points of player damage in a source that's also valuable removal, Brimstone Volley instead of a pretty lackluster creature.

I was planning to run both. I don't have thundermaw hellkites so I don't have that late game wincon.
