Spell_Slam yeah Suffocating Fumes is better, I had Cower in Fear from before Ikoria so I just roll with that since I generally won't cycle it, as i'll only ever use it against faries and elves. I actually swapped edicts for Disfigure since at my lgs Boros is very common and I needed instant speed removal ready on turn 1. Also I predict stompy will become very common post ban so killing a 4/2 Rancor creature for 1 mana is good to stay in curve. Of course if your lgs meta is slower or Bogles is common i'd say swap em out for edicts. Even though Delver got hit hard with Mystic Sanctuary ban, being able to deal with Delver of Secrets  ^Flip for one mana is cool.

Disfigure not Defile

Holy crap this deck is amazing. I know it looks weird but once you realize that you can put Disfigure onto Brushwagg AFTER you pump it is just insane. I tried swapping out the Lotus for a LED after I hit mythic with this but to be honest I think Lotus is more consistent.

Looking forward to more of your amazing brews RaderKen98!!!

Just an update - play-tested replacing Negate w/ 1 more Disfigure, took away the 2 Agonizing Remorse and went to 4 Thought Erasure and 2 Mystical Dispute. I took 2 Mystical Dispute from the sideboard, so I replaced them with Narset, Parter of Veils for the U/W, U/G, U/G/W games that they bank on card advantage. I replaced 1 Casualties of War and added a land since I can recycle that card with Tamiyo and that extra land helps on games I don't pull a Uro until late. Lastly, I replaced 1 Polukranos, Unchained with 1 Yarok, the Desecrated. Yarok cost 1 more mana than Polukranos, however I can escape Polukranos more than once and Yarok's ETB ability with Uro is just stupid good. Also a 3/5 body with deathtouch and lifelink comes in handy. For the sideboard I also repalced Ritual of Soot with Cry of the Carnarium to wipe the board a turn earlier. Final thoughts for now, I am considering making a place for 1 single Jace, Wielder of Mysteries to my sideboard because there have been a few games against control decks where I either did or nearly decked myself, going tit for tat until one of us ran out of cards. We shall see.

abby315 Thanks for the input! Good point on Cry of the Carnarium over Ritual of Soot, I figured RoS would cover more ground but having Cry out 1 turn earlier can mean the game. TBH I have had games where I cast all 4 Casualties of War however Tamiyo can also return that to my hand when needed, so I could possibly trim one. I might start by replacing a Negate with another Disfigure and see how it turns out. I have had some games where the Negate is a big X in my hand but it's also killed some late game bombs as their big move. I am also considering adding Plaguecrafter to my sideboard to deal with Dream trawler and other single win-con decks, it's so flexible.

Cry of the Carnarium is better than Ritual of Soot in most cases if you're having trouble with RDW. You can also consider going down on Casualties of War - how often do you need to cast more than one in a game? - and up on Disfigure.

Finally, not sure about the one-of Negate. I would think you want more or none, or if you're hedging against Bant, just run 2-3 mainboard Mystical Dispute to make them sad :)

I say don't cut Gutterbones. if you're going to cut something, cut an Order of Midnight, Disfigure, and a Vampire of the Dire Moon would be my suggestions. Yarok's Fenlurker seems awesome though.

I would go for an one Mana Removal like Fatal Push, Defile or Disfigure.
