Thank you zapyourtumor for all your advices

Please can you explain, why Sudden Spoiling and Hero's Downfall are not playable in Modern? I thought they are good cards... In my oppinion Sudden Spoiling is such a powerfull card, and its an Instant, so I can use it for both attack and defense

Once I had 4x Blightning in my deck, but I needed the place for other cards... Its a cool card, but yeah, you're right... with just 1 card like that unfortunately it doesnt fit well anymore in my deck. I will cut it

Yes i know, most deathtouch decks are BG, but I wanted to try something else when I started building the deck... ^^

Thanks again for all the tips, I'm deffinitiv gonna try some of your cards... Lets see

TheoryCrafter on Which Card Should Replace Pain …

5 months ago

I'm a sucker for Alternate win cards so my vote is with Mayael's Aria. However, I'd recommend replacing Pain Magnification with Blightning. It has the same mana cost and your opponent gets lifeloss and to discard.

3 mana is super slow for a discard effect, and what’s worse is that the opponent gets to choose what they’re discarding.

To make this even slower & clumsier, it does absolutely nothing when it’s played, and forces you to put in serious work to get any kind of payoff… you need to deal at least 2-lots of 3 damage just to still be significantly worse than Blightning (which, is still a pretty terrible card)

Does Crypt Rats not die to the initial 1 damage trigger? And yeah i actually had a full playset of Blightning in the original paper list but over time it just felt like it got edged out by other options, mainly i felt like the damage it provides wasnt very relevant as we arent typically pressuring the opponents life total. Also lol honestly idk why Evolving Wilds is still in the list ig im lazy w landbases XD but yeah it might be good as one of the capenna search lands for a little extra hp buffer vs aggro or burn

What is fun with Eternal Thirst is when you spend the mana one at a time. "Death by 1000 paper cuts" And the Crypt Rats grows bigger and bigger :D Now that i wiped the board, I will attack you with my 8/8...lifelink.

If you want more flexibility in mana, I suggest replacing the Evolving Wilds with Bloodfell Caves

Finally, have you considered Blightning? It's just a good card in general.

wallisface on burn

Burn generally wants to deal 20 damage as fast as possible. In that vein, cards like Dark Confidant are generally quite bad choices - as well as spending 2 mana that does no damage towards you opponent, it takes 2 full turns/triggers to actually give you any card advantage (the first draw is just replacing itself). Burn generally wants the game to be over by turn 4. It's too slow.

I would also suggest that Ensnaring Bridge is a bad option (burn decks don't want games to go long and drawing this probably buys the opponent at least 1 extra turn to stabilize and turn the game against you. 3 mana is also a LOT for a burn deck).

I'm not sure what your budget is, but the typical optimal burn deck just runs playsets of Monastery Swiftspear, Eidolon of the Great Revel, and Goblin Guide as their creature-base. In any case, 12 creatures seems to be the correct number.

I would also suggest ditching Blightning in place of a spell that costs 1-2 mana instead. 3 mana is a LOT for a burn deck, which often doesn't actually want the game to go long enough to draw that 3rd land.

Thunder Helix

Instant

Tap target creature. Untap another target creature.

Draw a card.


See what this card is to Lightning Helix, then create something that relates similarly to Blightning.

Really cool deck, doesn’t look like there’s much room but I feel like Blightning and Fury really fit here
