Skred

Skred deals damage to target creature equal to the number of snow permanents you control.
SpammyV on Dual lands vs. basics

Basically, you can choose lands that maximize the efficiency of other cards in your deck.
The Ravnica bounce lands (Boros Garrison et al) can be good when you're using Faithless Looting or similar effects since it puts a card into your hand.
If you're maximizing Skred you want snow basics and the Kaldheim snow duals.
The Bridges from Modern Horizon 2 help you maximize Galvanic Blast and Deadly Dispute.
Control decks may want the gain lands to offset aggro.
Also don't forget Ash Barrens and even Evolving Wilds if you're putting Brainstorm into your deck.

I already have Gideon's Sacrifice. Pariah is mana intensive, but probably a good sideboard card.
I don't think I'll upkeep enough basic lands for Skred to be really that great. I would have to wait until at least turn 3 for it to even do a good amount of damage comparable to burn cards of 1 mana.

Any advice? (Burn)
8 months ago
Curve is way too high for a burn deck. Perhaps take a look at burn in other formats like modern/legacy/pauper you want to stay as low to the ground as possible and use cards like Lightning Bolt to apply pressure and give you that last bit of reach. Also, maybe take a look at some Skred decks it might be the style of play you're actually looking for.

Hm, I’ll have to think about that zapyourtumor. I was thinking Skred would be on par or better than Lightning Bolt, with 12 potential snow permanents to fuel it, but you raise a valid point. Although the suite of counter- and burn spells are really only here to stave off threats until we can get some coin flips happening...which we’re guaranteed to win. Between Fiery Gambit, Molten Birth and Goblin Traprunner we’ll have limitless opportunities to burn targets.

With Steam Vents, I don't think Skred is worth running here. Also, removing Skred would let you run more duals/fetch for shocks more often, which would let you run Counterspell instead of Mana Leak.

I'll try it out when I get the snow land, though I'm not sure how good it is. I was tried out cheap burn like Roast and Lightning Axe from an earlier suggestion, but found that it made Nahiri's Wrath much weaker and therefore harder to one-shot an opponent. I think Skred might end up the same way, but there's enough damage potential here for me to give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestion Icbrgr =).

Maybe switching to Snow-Covered Mountains and pair with Skred?
