Hi everyone,

this is my first deck to build in tappedout.

I've always loved BR decks for the access of cheap and powerful cards that provide both aggro and control strategies. Starting with modern in 2017, this was the point to start off with a playset of lightning bolts. This deck has evolved from a pure aggro state and have become some kind of controlish aggro.

The plan is to play cheap powerful cards that keep the opponent under pressure by cleaning the board with a lot of removal and beeing able to discard possible threats from the opponents hand.

The low CMC ensure that there is a lot going on e.g. threats or triggers for Young Pyromancer and Monastery Swiftspear . Claim / Fame seems to be extremely good and versatile in terms of card advantage. It can get almost every creature onto the battlefield again (mmmhh Pack Rat ). In terms of card advantage I decided to play Abbot of Keral Keep over Faithless Looting because I just love how it mana fixes and it doesn't feel bad playing it lategame once I got the mana. It's also another beater on the board with prowess that's also a human and can additionally be claimed by Claim / Fame .

An aggressive surprise for many opponents is Falkenrath Aristocrat . This nasty vampire can close down games quickly - providing evasion and the ability to getting more aggressive with all the humans in this deck. The tokens of Young Pyromancer are good to beat down, chump and give Falkenrath Aristocrat dudes to sac.

Basically this deck can win fast and the top deck seat feels comfortable.

I have played this deck a lot online and it feels that its favorable matchups are creature heavy of course. Combo decks and UW Control so as Tron are a lot tougher to handle. I would like you to share your thoughts on this by keeping in mind that it should stay kind of budget brew. Thoughtseize is an obvious good thing to add but i am not sure if it is really that important concerning it's high cost moneywise. I would also need help with the mana ensemble and the sideboard.

Thanks for visiting.
