Hiya, Tappedout.net!

Since I have your undivided attention at the moment, I would like to let you know a few things about this deck. This deck is my attempt to put something together that will apply pressure very quickly and have an attribute that most Sligh-style decks don't have: mid-to-late game presence with Lupine Prototype. I can't promise that the deck is competitive, but it does have new ideas that explore the design space WoTC has provided for this Standard season.

That being said, if you are looking for a legit Red Aggro Deck, please check out SaltyBird's deck, And they said red was dead (Atarka Red). It's an update of the Atarka Red archetype. SaltyBird has taken it to FNM and came in 1st! Please give the deck an upvote to gain it some exposure, it's the real deal.

Now, back to our originally scheduled deck presentation! Continue on to read about my delusion that Lupine Prototype is playable!


Begin original description:

I've been too busy playing Naya Burn in Modern to pay much attention to Standard beyond knowing that GW tokens, Bant Company and Wx Humans have pretty much been the entire meta.


Ignoring all that, here's a Red Deck Wins offering for Eldritch Moon!


Here's the plan:


Empty your hand ASAP and get your Lupine Prototype online. Everything in the deck can be cast for 2 mana or less, if everything breaks right!

Madness out Fiery Temper for with one of the various Madness enablers: Lightning Axe, Furyblade Vampire, Ravenous Bloodseeker and Insolent Neonate! Madness out Vampires with Falkenrath Gorger on the field!

Skin Invasion   up an Insolent Neonate for maximum value!


This picture represents Burn in Standard.

Both Collective Defiance and Exquisite Firecraft would be collectively exquisite to play, but I'm going for all-in, low-cost, balls-to-the-wall red aggro.
