Gnaw to the Bone is a beast —Dec. 13, 2017
Gnaw to the Bone is a beast because you can cast it twice. Because it is easy to get 8-12 creatures fast in the graveyard, two castings of Gnaw to the Bone can give you around 40 lifes (2 casting x 2 lifes x 10 creatures). Even if your discard a Gnaw to the Bone with a Satyr Wayfinder, you still can cast it once.
With that much life, my matches versus Stomp and Elves went great. Seriously, it feels unfair to them!! Against Red Deck Win (Burn), I need to pilot this deck better, but I think it is a fair matchup. Against Control, this deck needs to be piloted well - for example, you need to wait they are tapped out to play your combo.
Fade Away is very good versus all matchup with creatures. I played vs a Elves who had 5 creature in play and 3 tapped out lands. By casting Fade Away, he or she had to sacrifice 5 permanents. This kind of play is mostly insurmountable for an aggro deck. Moreover, if Fade Away makes you sacrifice your own creature, it is not a problem, because you need them in your graveyard anyway.
