This is just me testing and finding the best fun gimmick to play against blue. Feedback appreciated.
Also, I am afraid of commitment so don't recommend too expensive cards (<$2/card please!) Planeswalkers can be more expensive if they would improve the deck.
A bit of a guide
Reverberate
Use as a "no u" to counter target spells. Copy the counterspell, and target the original.
Guttural Response
Counter their counters.
Volcanic Fallout
I don't like 2/2 blue drakes with flying, how about you? Be aware this also hurts you!
Banefire
Use to do large amounts of damage,
Urza's Rage
is not modern-legal.
Burning Anger
Better than
Apocalypse Hydra
's ability. By a lot.
Exquisite Firecraft
Use to knock out those annoying cards just above two toughness.
Obliterate
The panic button.
Pyromancer Ascension
The more spells the merrier! Right? Pair with a Banefire and win the game.
Rancor
You just need it.
Ricochet Trap
Bounce or mill them instead.
The small amount of creatures
Akroma, Angel of Fury
One of the top red cards, so why not?
Apocalypse Hydra
Use with
Burning Anger
, just do.
Mistcutter Hydra
Like
Apocalypse Hydra
's younger brother but somehow still equally powerful. start the threat or finish the game.
Lightning Mare
Early-game attacker.
Mogg Fanatic
He can attack, block, and fling.
I have abandoned this deck to make an actual Gruul.
