Are you looking for face hunting, explosive plays, and the sort of top deck and wreck moments that only a red deck can bring you?
Do you want to punish win-more synergy durdles with cold hard damage? Well this deck doesn't mess around with Enchantments and Planeswalkers that take a long time to get on the board and accrue advantage, we just go for the throat.
I made this deck on MTGArena. It has netted me a ton of wins and it always goes off with a bang!
Honestly give this a go! To top it off, the deck is only about $50 in paper.
The play goes like this:
You play early game to get damage where you can from your creatures, sometimes you don't block just because you can then attack and deal a ton of damage with a nice thud, it is a bit risky this way.
Shock
,
Lightning Strike
,
Murder
are good for clearing up the board, rarely used for extra damage.
Hired Poisoner
is a great blocker and hardly gets blocked for a bit of early game trading, it all adds up.
Goblin Instigator
makes a board for blocking aggro, as does
Raptor Hatchling
, which is quite annoying.
Viashino Pyromancer
gives a little bit of damage and another blocker, I have found this 2 damage can make a lot of difference.
So you do all that just to survive and get a bit of damage on them. Then you explode with
Yargle, Glutton of Urborg
and
Thud
.
I have literally done
Inferno Hellion
, pass,
Gravitic Punch
, pass,
Gravitic Punch
with jumpstart,
Thud
. IT IS SO DUMB. I was basically losing a match until I pulled this off, I was using all my creatures and small burn to control the board as best I could, but was getting beat up. This is the miracle I play for right here.
Another great line is T1:
Hired Poisoner
, T2:
Viashino Pyromancer
for 2, swing
Hired Poisoner
for 1, T3:
Risk Factor
they take 4, T4:
Risk Factor
, they take 4. T5:
Yargle, Glutton of Urborg
pass, T6:
Thud
Yargle for 9!
Here is the explosive power in action, the opponent had no answers; good game:
