frogs covered the land (then they all died)
Polymorphist's Jest, Turn to Frog +
Circle of Flame
, Bile Blight, Anger of the Gods, Magma Jet,
Fated Conflagration
,
Gild
to keep the board clean until Mogis, God of Slaughter comes out. with no creatures on the battlefield, Mogis, God of Slaughter deals 2 damage to the opponent on his every upkeep. there is also a chance for Mogis, God of Slaughter to become a creature if I get
Chandra, Pyromaster
and Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver and a few
Circle of Flame
's out.
Dissolve
, Negate are for things that can't be answered with creature removal. (planeswalkers/enchantments/artifacts)
Chandra, Pyromaster
also works well with Turn to Frog.
Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver is here as an alternate win con. milling your opponent for 3 every turn and having a chance to use their creatures against them can't be bad. worst case scenario is you milled them for 3 and used up one of their removal spells all for 3cmc. it also messes up their scry and it has great synergy with AEtherspouts
Gild
is there for hard to deal with creatures like Mistcutter Hydra or gods (although Turn to Frog works just fine for gods). I'd use Hero's Downfall but i can't afford it right now so
Gild
it is.
Fated Conflagration
for if you somehow let your opponent drop a fatty or more importantly for walkers. the only walkers who are safe from this the turn they come out right now in standard are Garruk, Apex Predator and Jace, the Living Guildpact, provided they immediately use their +1 upon resolution(which is why we won't let them resolve using Negate/
Dissolve
)
the sideboard is for control match ups. i'll be switching out the creature removals in exchange for the counters and more burn. Dictate of the Twin Gods for more efficient burning.
I'm also keeping this deck ready for rotation so no
Dreadbore
, Izzet Charm, Cyclonic Rift, Doom Blade, Rakdos's Return, Mizzium Mortars, etc.
so far, the hardest deck to deal with is green with ramp and huge creatures. especially creatures with counters (
Heroes' Bane
, Mistcutter Hydra, and creatures with monstrosity) since green ramp can (most of the time) activate monstrosity in response to my Turn to Frog and Polymorphist's Jest or burn spells.
comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
