Almost ready! —March 31, 2015
I'm just about ready to buy the deck! I'm just not sure about Flame Slash in the mainboard

Also, two other things. 1. Rending Volley might be the card you want instead of Combust. 2. Blood Moon and no fetches seems a little bit awkward to me. I love the card, but with the current mana base, I am not 100% sure about it. Here is some info about Blood Moon. I would check this out.

I have been favoring Combust over Rending Volley because of Siege Rhino q.q And I see what you're saying with Blood Moon. Maybe I should not have it in there but I think it is pretty good still. With blood moon out my deck has 9x island and 12x mountain. It doesn't hurt too bad and if I'm siding it in it will most likely be hurting my opponent even more.

I also kinda want to take Blood Moon out because I don't own any and they are $25 a piece. Any suggestions for replacements?

Not really sure on replacements. Just really depends on your meta and what you go against.

Seems good to me. Have you thought about Young Pyromancer? I feel like it may be better than Frostburn Weird in this shell. With all the spells getting thrown around, you won't have to waste any mana on the Weird.

Heh just ditched pyromancer for the weird. The weird works 100x better with Clout of the Dominus and it also survives the 3x Pyroclasm in my sideboard whereas the Young Pyromancer would get wrecked by it.

Yeah, I can get behind that. I wonder if there would be any other good cards that can be there.. Maybe like Monastery Swiftspear? It would easily survive Pyroclasm and mix with the Clout.. only partially though.. noticing that now. I'll look into other creatures. Just makes sense to me to have a creature that interacts with the rest of the deck, like Delver of Secrets Flip or something, as I name off like all of the U/R delver cards.

Yea I also don't want this to be a run of the mill deck either. I want to keep it unique :D

Exactly why I said that. I feel like there should be something.. To the database!
March 30, 2015 9:22 p.m.
Hahaha xD Thank you for any suggestions you come up with. I'm off to play LoL xD

I found this card that may be pretty fun- Riverfall Mimic. Nivix Cyclops and Wee Dragonauts are always cool.

Elusive Spellfist, Augur of Bolas, Incursion Specialist. These are some other okay cards, but not multi-colored. I was trying to at least stay within 2 CMC.
March 30, 2015 9:50 p.m.
Riverfall Mimic is basically a better Incursion Specialist. And I just really prefer multicolor creatures right now with the build I have

Understandable. Yeah, I was just trying to find cards that would survive a Pyroclasm and be affected by the spells.
March 30, 2015 10:44 p.m.
Yah thanks for that :D But I think I have my creatures figured out. Frostburn Weird and Clout of the Dominus make Keranos a creature so I really want to keep that interaction in there I think.

Okay, I forgot about the devo it added. And I forgot about making Keranos a creature. Huh. Yeah, that's a thing. I like Keranos so much that I could care less about making it a creature.
March 30, 2015 10:54 p.m.
Yeah it's just a great bonus to make a 6/5 indestructible. It helps close the game out too xD

SoggyGecko says... #20
Yes, that definitely would. Yay for the unexpected indestructible creatures!

Seeing as you currently already took out the Snag, the deck looks really good. I kinda want to build this myself.
