Been playing around with this card it's really good in this deck

The deck seems pretty solid. When you get around to testing it at FNM, let me know how it goes.

As for the description, it was creative, but you gotta fix up those grammar and spelling errors ;)

Xazrael I've been playing with it two weeks before Kaladash came out. Works really well but, the side board needs work.

As for the grammar and spelling, you got me there lol. Did you know i made an Easter egg in this paragraph:

We have Bomat Courier Races with Fleet wheel Cruiser combat. They will fight to the death so place your bets. Ask us to upgrade them contacted our service team. Standard service: 86652738 39367527 veteran service: 838372 66867478

Would you go on the flagship for a trip?

Quadsimotto It's a fast deck, i don't think it will work. But thanks anyway

Start Your Engines would be amazing with this deck.

Although the deck is fast, finishing the game might prove difficult, as the Opponent has time to establish them self.

Start Your Engines gives you the last push you need to clinch the game.

Argeaux Every game i played. I have at the most two copters, cause removal. Blood Mist is a better card, it saved my butt plenty of times.

I did try it out in the first stages of making this deck. It was way too slow.

On Saturday showdown my Flagship hit for 8 with double strike Blood mist + Veteran motorist x2 for the win. The poor guy didn't think i can hit for that much lol.

I got first out of 16 people went 4 - 0 all clean wins.

I'd play four Aether Hubs and some Harnessed Lightnings for instant-speed removal. Please take out Blood Mist though :/ It's a sorcery-speed combat trick that does nothing but give one creature double-strike.

CthulhusNo1FavCultist A Fleetwheel Cruiser with Blood mist will do work.

Love the deck description and flavor. Lupine Prototype has time and time again proved to be a mediocre card, and would probably be better off as another Depala or two.

xboomstickx says... #10

Bovine073 True, but he fills my cars. Mid to late game he can attack when i got no gas to burn.

Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Bovine073 says... #11

Depala crews just as well, but better because it has far more additional upside. There is not a card in the deck that Lupine can crew that Depala can't. Often the one extra mana won't matter anyways, as none of your vehicles are T3 plays.

xboomstickx says... #12

Bovine073 Depala is a good card that's why i run two. It's too bad i can't run more then one on the field cause i would then take out Lupine Prototype for Depala.

Lupine Prototype goes well with Tool craft Exemplar if i don't pick up Smuggler's Copter. But we will see in the new set.

xboomstickx what will replace your copters after the bannings?

Jist letting you know that you used the wring spelling of lone. It's loan in that context.

Also, no mention of the beautiful landscape like Inspiring Vantage or a meeting with Captain Pia Nalaar?

Also, I love this deck! +1!

For the love of all that is holy, please sort your lists by Type only.

I always liked to sort by card types and then make another section for "vehicle"

xboomstickx says... #18

Atony1400You have a good eye for detail thank you. I've been play testing with the new cards in the deck as proxies. They work well with the deck. Too bad the copter is banned :(

archfield1 I forgot about that sorry lol

Midn8 True but type is easy to see

Lets make this deck tier 1 :)

There are two cards I'm surprised I don't see int he deck. Gearshift Ace and Ovalchase Dragster. Is there something I am missing about these cards?

January 12, 2017 5:29 a.m.

xboomstickx says... #20

Gnarfflinger Question is what would you take out and why.

January 12, 2017 5:35 a.m.

Gnarfflinger says... #21

I remain unsold on Bomat Courier. That's two Aces there.

At present, I am not banking on any Heart of Kiran, so the Dragsters could serve as placeholders. If you got it, flaunt it, but a mythic with a $20 price tag might not happen on my budget without a little luck opening packs.

I would value First Strike for my Vehicles, so the Ace would win the trade off over the Selfless spirit.

How much impact has the Servo Exhibition really had? If it's not that big an impact, that opens the door for two more Dragsters.

xboomstickx says... #22

GnarfflingerBomat Courier good with Toolcraft Exemplar turn 2 hit for 4. great early game. If still alive gas for days.

I has the money so i'll buy Heart of Kiran

Selfless Spirit saves me from removal, it is flying as well.

Servo Exhibition great for blockers. Can make opponent use removal on them instead of my other creatures.

Ovalchase Dragster too slow for my deck still have to crew it. I can use Fleetwheel Cruiser that attacks soon as it comes out.

Gearshift Ace sure it gives first strike but i much rather the extra protection with Selfless Spirit
