Alright, This is my latest iteration of the RUG Aggro deck. Turning threats sideways like a boss.

MvP Cards:

  • Kessig Wolf Run - This thing does work lategame. The deck lacks any sort of real finisher besides this and its currently the only way to kill a titan.

  • Quirion Dryad - Like a boss. No other green spells besides Garruk means this girl gets fat fast and for once thats not a bad thing.

  • Garruk Relentless - Like any planeswalker he puts a big bullseye on his head. Removes small things, poops wolves and finds whatever I need. Just need a finisher for him to find for me.

Not so hot:

  • Huntmaster of the Fells - Looks like everyone is rocking some form of 2 damage removal aimed directly at Delver and this guy. I have no problem with Delver eating a Pillar but paying 4 and getting answered with a Galvanic Blast gets old really fast. Don't even get me started on whipflare.

  • Rune Chanter's Pike - On its way out. Deck doesn't have the 20+ instants/sorcery to rock this.

Currently Considering: ANYTHING TO FINISH

  • Thragtusk - In playtesting this thing delays like no tommorow with the lifegain and token generated. However, it does not end games.

  • Thundermaw Hellkite - This guys up next for playtesting.

  • Hellrider - Not sure what to think of this guy. With huntmaster and Garruk pooping tokens out he could be good.

  • Temporal Mastery - A great card and yet I don't want it in my hand. So the real question is how many and in place of what...

  • Wolfir Silverheart - Will have to test. Best reason to have him is as a drop after huntmaster as people usually remove the huntmaster leaving a 2/2 wolf behind.

  • Zealous Conscripts - Pretty self explanatory. Grab the enemies blocker and hopefully swing for the win. Will be better if im forced to use unsummon after rotation. (If I use it at all...)

Landbase:

Current mana problems have been solved somewhat. Doesn't have a ridiculous manabase for playing something like Strangleroot Geist but it doesn't get screwed much. Will get even better when shock-lands come out as this deck really doesn't care about its life.
