City on Fire
Enchantment
Convoke (You may tap your creatures as you cast this spell. Each creature you tap while casting this spell pays for or one mana of that creature's colour.)
If a source you control would deal damage to a permanent or player, it deals triple that damage instead.

Ib Halfheart, Goblin Sac-tician [PRIMER]
1 week ago
Latest iteration of the deck has been running very well, with a 40+% winrate in my playgroups the last 2 months or so.
Removing the Blood Moon effects has really only been positive. A lot of the success of the deck (at least the way I like to play it) is to be the smallest threat at the table, and then taking over everything the next turn or two. Any time an opponent questions attacking you because of your boardstate, but also knowing how explosive Ib can be, is a win in my book.
My favorite thing about the deck continues to improve, which is the play patterns and wincons feel new every time. That feels great to play and play against.
City on Fire has been a powerhouse every single time I land it. There is so much incidental damage in the deck I will likely make tweaks for more damage uppers/doublers.
The amount of searching and shuffling is getting tiresome, so I will probably streamline the landbase a bit here soon.
Of all the recent editions, only Sunspine Lynx has underperformed. It being a 4 drop isn't necessarily a problem, but being a non-Goblin has been more impactful than expected.
Repercussion also allowed me to turn a 2nd place finish into a forced table-wide draw from all of us dying at the same time. Not winning but not losing is a win IMO!

Nice deck (+1), if you're looking to cast City on Fire, you can try Irencrag Feat. It is similar to Geosurge, but doesn't limit the type of spell you can play with it. It does limit the number, but if the next spell triples all damage, it might be worth it. Gratuitous Violence
is a slightly cheaper alternative if you don't want to use convoke, though it only doubles damage rather than triple.
Outside of damage, Count on Luck might be a pretty good fit here since it's cheap, increases devotion by quite a bit, and adds some card advantage. Hope this helps =)

Neotrup on card:Calamity, Galloping Inferno copying enchantment/artifact …

Calamity, Galloping Inferno will make copies of the cards exactly as they're printed, so animation effects won't be copies. However, since the copies will still have the original mana value, Bello, Bard of the Brambles's ability will apply to them making them enter as creatures. Since they are entering as creatures there's nothing keeping them from entering attacking. If you did not control Bello when Calamity's ability resolved you could not choose to make copies of City on Fire because you must choose a creature that saddled it, and City on Fire would be a noncreature enchantment that saddled it. If City on Fire were animated by a different effect like One with the Stars you would still be able to chose it, but the tokens would enter tapped and not attacking (since they wouldn't be creatures in that scenario).
TL;DR - Yes, the copies will enter tapped and attacking due to the animation effect being a static ability that will apply to the tokens rather than a 1-shot effect only effecting specific permanents.
Mave on card:Calamity, Galloping Inferno copying enchantment/artifact …

I control Bello, Bard of the Brambles which turns all my enchantments/Artifacts with mana value 4 or greater into indestrubtible 4/4s with haste. I saddle Calamity, Galloping Inferno with e.g. City on Fire. I'm certain I get two token copies of City on Fire but will they enter tapped and attacking (as long as I still control Bello, Bard of the Brambles when they enter? My guess is yes but I want to know the rules in case my playgroup wants to know why it works.

Noice! City on Fire or Furnace of Rath for extra damage? Maybe Captive Flame?
