Just puuled a bonfire and thinking if it would be a good idea to use it in my 5 color control deck... Prismatic Flare
I don't know if it would be counterproductive to add a singleton miracle to a graveyard based deck since the two mechanics clash...
I'd think one would want to hold onto a bonfire... whether they plan on using it or not.

Have you even read Bonfire?
Bonfire of the Damned is the best card in Standard. Period.
Hell, a lot of decks splash Red just for that.

Does it matter? When you see it, it's a bomb. When you don't, you don't.

if you only have a 1 of its not that big of a deal to run, unless you have heavy draw in the deck. if you happen to get your hands on a second copy than yes you run the bonfires, almost every deck that is running red plays the card (legacy cough).

If you'd check the deck you'd find out how heavy the draw was in it. Trust me i can get and keep a lot in my hand for most of the game :-D

bonfire needs ONE red source. it's exactly the kind of thing you should be running in a 5 color deck.

I'll be adding slagstorm in in place of whipflares, which backfire regularly
