Hi, Stefouch!

Thx for upvote and all your suggestions mate!

Deck still in brewing stage, but I already tryed out Bedlam Reveler and he wasnt good enough to stay in =(

Ankh of Mishra is in tests right now :-)

Repercussion is here for now, but I dont sure its will stay, so no Blasphemous Act . I want to swap it later to Blazing Chant enchantment from Modern Horizons, its have pretty nice synergy with Tibalt first ability and overral with deck tech, and I hope MTG "Gods" give us some more good red cards. especially I cant wait to see Red Force spell >_<.

Hi, Laurentian!

Thx for your comment.

I prefer Tibalt cuz he is mean guy ;-P

About Sulfuric Vortex - our commander is already Vortex without side effects for us - Tibalt does stack with Basilisk Collar wich is our second chance to keep up through all burn effects.

I love your deck. +1

Suggestions:

• You should really find a spot for Bedlam Reveler and Ankh of Mishra .
• You play Repercussion but not Blasphemous Act ?? It's true you could die from it too, but at least you play fewer creatures and Glacial Chasm .

Yo MLGSavageBoy, you can make it work it won't be the greatest of decks, but with Zozu you can make it more of a group hate type of deck that punishes people. Cards like Stranglehold , Manabarbs , War's Toll , Ankh of Mishra . Oh and don't forget about Blood Moon as well! I can see it working adding in a sub theme of lifegain but yeah go for it!

The core seems solid, but I do see some pretty obvious upgrades.

• Lightning Strike (the card's power level simply isn't legacy playable) should be replaced with Lava Spike . It's a near-strict upgrade, as in a burn deck all you want to do is throw damage at the opponent's face anyways.

• Icy Manipulator , at four mana, is wayyyyy too slow. Take it out. Do the same with Fireball , which is similar. the rate is too slow. You need 4 mana to deal three damage. There are plenty of ways to deal three for 1 mana. Now we have 5 free slots.

• 24 lands is too much for a burn deck. That's midrange numbers. I would just run 18 lands, probably just 18 mountains. Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle comes in tapped, which really slows you down, and Rishadan Port doesn't make colored mana, which is a huge liability in a deck filled with one-mana spells. Take out six lands (now you'll have 18 lands and 11 free slots.)

• using the 11 free slots, there are two paths:

1: add another copy of chain lightning (another 1 mana deal 3 spell, what's not to like?), 4x Rift Bolt (another 3 damage for 1) 4x Price of Progress (if usually deals at least 4-6 damage), another 2 Fireblast s (if you have one copy in hand, your opponent's life is virtually reduced by 4, since once they reach 4 life you can just kill them with it). Now, you can also go down the Winter Orb s and Black Vise s for 4 Skewer the Critics and 2 Light Up the Stage . This build is probably the strongest.

2: if you want a build that's more fun, like my list, you can remove the 4 skewers for another Vise and 3 Ankh of Mishra s. At that point, you could stop, but if you wanna go all in on the artifact plan like I did, you could remove Light Up the Stage for 2 Mishra's Bauble s. Now you're playing so many artifacts that you can support Shrapnel Blast which is extremely powerful. You can go up to three copies of it for some Rift Bolt s, Lava spikes, or chain lightnings - you decide.

Other cards in white that deal damage to you are rare, but some colorless cards exist for the job, here all of the ones that come to mind:

The white part of the Odyssey utility threshold lands: Nomad Stadium

Grand Coliseum and City of Brass

Mana Vault and Mana Crypt are even better than usual here!

Staff of Nin xDD to deal damage to you!

Ankh of Mishra would be amazing!

Off of that staff one I though of Blasting Station ... there is some infinite combo there, right?

Jinxed Idol might not be so jinxed after all!

Ancient Tomb is amazing as well.

---

That is all I have for that... now for some finishers once you have the life/token engine going!

Well of Lost Dreams / Mentor of the Meek ? They would do a fair amount of work in terms of drawing.

Felidar Sovereign / Archangel of Thune - normal lifegain shenanigans.

Jazal Goldmane / Cathars' Crusade / Coat of Arms / Mirror Entity / Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite - normal token shenanigans.

Anointed Procession for more fun?

Divine Visitation too...

Ashnod's Altar / Phyrexian Altar would be good value

Slate of Ancestry on that note.

That's all I got... other than random anthem effects like Dictate of Heliod , but that would be too weak IMO.

Hoobynobber7395, Alesha, Who Smiles at Death 's ability can only be activated during the attacker's step, allowing the opponent a chance to block Master of Cruelties during the declare blockers step (or to respond with removal). If you absolutely must connect with a player (and again, barring removal), a Dauthi Embrace would do the trick.

spoonlordprime, if you want to get your opponents to hate you, try turn one Sol Ring and Ankh of Mishra .

I've built a couple Mogis, God of Slaughter Group-Slug decks. I hope you would check one out tell me what you think. Maybe you'll also see a few cards that can liven up your deck, like Heartless Hidetsugu or Spellshock .

What about introducing groupslug cards not related to drawing, such as Manabarbs or Ankh of Mishra ?
