What is the best answer to Kor Firewalker?

Modern forum

Posted on May 5, 2015, 11:19 a.m. by Borzi

I am splashing white in my burn deck but I am debating as to what I want to side in against Kor Firewalker. I think that a good ol' path to exile could get the job done, but I also like the idea of playing glare of heresy to get rid of a surprise leyline. Anyone got some thoughts to contribute?

Pyrite Spellbomb is another one that sees some play. It is useful even if they don't draw their Kor Firewalker, and can draw you cards if they have a leyline out.

just pick up your cards and say "Good game" best way to get it off the table.

@lemmingllama Spellbomb seems awesome actually...never a completly dead card, burns while also targeting firewalker...I like it!@VampireArmy I don't run pyroclasm and don't intend on doing so, my deck isn't really on the controlling side of things@asasinater13 have tried that one before, worked 10/11 timesThanks for the feedback!

So.... 1/11 times they just stayed at the table after the game was over?

Some people just want to watch the Burn burn.

Honestly the best answer to Firewalker is Firewalker.

when i wreck a burn player with my firewalkers i will often nail it to the tabe along with a plaque that reads "here lies the tears of a burn player" thats usually the 1/11 time it doesnt come off the table.

I have played that mirror and I can confirm that this is a traditional custom for everyone who has resolved a Firewalker.

The obvious answer is to resolve multiple Sulfur Elementals!
