More Play Testing —March 25, 2012
So after some more play testing, I have dropped 1 Tumble Magnet main deck for 1 Shrine of Burning Rage. I found that I almost always want Shrine of Burning Rage on turn 2 since it wins about 60% of my games for me which is kinda nice =). I also took out the last Whipflare out of the side board for an additional Oblivion Ring just because having 9 board wipes after board is redundant. Hardest matches seem to be U/G Zombies and that was mainly because the guy i played in almost every game Distressed me atleast 2 times putting a huge damper in my game plan. The match-up is about 35/65 preboard and 50/50 post board which is kind of annoying but that is the best I got so far... Nihil Spellbomb Was basically the MVP in my games against him.
Will try to get some more testing in before the GP but it will be a stretch.
Good Luck to any1 else giving this deck a try at FNM and post anything you can find =P

@kingboo3000 the inkmoths are in there for that alternate win-con. Volt-charge helps and equiping an inkmoth with batterskull late game is just dirty.

@kingboo3000 I have infact won with infect damage before. It usually happens against control matchups or other late game decks... Chandra, the Firebrand + Volt Charge or Tezzeret's Gambit adds infect through proliferation against decks that gain loads of life, it is easier to win with, and some decks only removal is instant against non-landsor just sorcery speed.

Have you ever won a single game with infect damage? I not, or at least not many, I would seriously drop those Inkmoth Nexuses. BUT THEY'RE THE BEST LAND IN THE FORMAT!!-But, they don't work in a deck that has no way of increasing their damage output.
Anyway, switching to basics will help you not get color-screwed anyway.
