I LOVE playing tempo decks. I also play Death & Taxes. This is close to both of those rolled together. All you want to do is land an early threat or two, let the opponent damage themselves with your creature's triggers, and keep the board clear for attacks. Burn face when necessary.

I know folks have been experimenting with a sligh / RDW in Modern centered around Bomat Courier 's card advantage for some time now and I wanted to try it out with the new combo of Light Up the Stage + Skewer the Critics . Can be tuned for all sorts of metas. My only word of warning: LUTS does not play well with Rift Bolt .

All suggestions welcome!
