• Six red sources is awfully low number to reliably draw any in a game. You need to play more
• Voice of the Blessed is strictly better than Ajani's Pridemate. You just have to fix the mana base to reliably have double white and a single red in each game.
• You don't have to play 3 Norin the Wary. The are legendary, so extra copy is useless. You can search for them Ranger-Captain of Eos, and in case of losing one, you can return it to play with Abiding Grace.
• 1 Daxos, Blessed by the Sun may be usefull

Sol Ring might be a good alternative to Seething Song. If you play it before Confusion in the Ranks, you'll have +2 mana every turn. And if you play it after, it is a permanent you can exchange. Urza's Saga could help you get it, and can even make a token. Mirrex is a potential sub for Springjack Pasture. Also a single copy of Sokenzan, Crucible of Defiance wouldn't hurt. Imperial Recruiter can fetch Norin the Wary. Not sure if you'd rather have Norrin than anything else.

+1 for Big Red! Purphoros is one of my favorite decks! Consider adding Norin the Wary ton of value for a single {R}.

Quickspell on Does Norin trigger Crested Sunmare?

1 year ago

I have Soul Warden and Crested Sunmare on the battlefield, while Norin the Wary is flickering in and out. Norin and Sunmare‘s ability both go on the stack at the beginning of the end step. Can I stack them so that Norin resolves first, triggering Soul Warden, so that when Sunmare‘s ability resolves I get a horse? By that time I have gained life, didn’t I?

Norin the Wary could be a great addition here just to give you waaay more hunan-etb triggers

Champion of the Parish feels like it would have a home. The {RW} shell calls to Soul Sisters with Soul Warden and Soul's Attendant with the token production you have but that might get away from what you want. If Soul Sisters is something you want, Norin the Wary and Purphoros, God of the Forge are fun in red. +1

Honestly, this has kind of always been true. In general, the powerlevel of newer cards is intended to be lower than the powerlevel of older cards because older cards were often problematic and degenerate. Restrictions like this are printed on newer cards because WotC intends to maintain a certain level of enjoyment potential for players and no one likes sitting down to a game, shuffling up, drawing a hand, losing the die roll to go first, then watching an opponent combo off an win before you've ever had a chance to draw your first card of the game on your fist turn. Which, honestly, is a good thing for the health of MtG as a whole.

Bwhaha, nice! What about...

Restoration Specialist to work in the back room, maybe with Scrap Welder who makes great use of Sunglasses of Urza

_The welder gets a lot of work and does well for himself, but Restoration Specialist always seems to find herself saving money, never quite being able to afford a new Sky Skiff. She used to have one, and it wasn't the skiffyest bit around town, but it was just right for what she needed. This was, of course, before last year's accidental overloaded Vandalblast, which, despite the big news coverage at the time, has still left many neighborhoods in mostly disarray.

So, these days she has to ride the Untethered Express to and from work, and every time she does, she ties to remember that the next treasure she restores may just be the one that gets her back to the sky. And more than that, it may be the one that gets her back to the days when she wasn't left spending her time waiting on a train and waiting on the world.

But, like in all things, today is today, and there is nothing else for an often underappreciated Restoration Specialist to do other than take a seat and hope, just hope, that she doesn't have to listen to Chulane, Teller of Tales one more time. He always seems to be on the same Untethered Express as her, and she can't ever seem to wrap her head around why that is. So, she ponders that tid one more time, he starts into the same story that he's told her a hundred times before, and her seat shakes like Norin the Wary at a blind date as they begin into town. Someday the city, her city, someday they will finally replace that bugger of a tether, but, for now she just holds as tight as she can. Today is today afterall.

_ Okay...sorry, I've gone way, way too far : ) I really like the deck! That's what I meant to say.
