Spitebellows

Creature — Elemental

When Spitebellows leaves the battlefield, it deals 6 damage to target creature.

Evoke (You may cast this spell for its evoke cost. If you do, it's sacrificed when it enters the battlefield.)

  1. Play one Ziatora's Proving Ground for fetching.
  2. Play one surveil land for fetching, such as Commercial District.
  3. Your deck is 3 colors and plans to play both Ball Lightning and Groundbreaker on curve, which requires absolutely flawless mana base. I am aware that Blood Moon and Path to Exile exist, but this deck may be the one in which you don't want to play basic lands at all. Playing just dual lands is not enough - consider your opening hand is Blackcleave Cliffs, Swamp, Thornspire Verge and Blooming Marsh. You have 4 lands and yet can't play your elementals. Increase number of Cavern of Souls, play some lands such as City of Brass and Fire-Lit Thicket. Reflecting Poolfoil works well with those "any color" lands.
  4. Fling costs 2 mana. Go with Callous Sell-Sword, which costs only one mana and may be played as a creature. Your plan is to fling after combat anyway. Village Rites also exists.
  5. Damnation is too slow for Modern. Try some combination of Toxic Deluge and Brotherhood's End. Another problem is that it's reactive card - it may be better worth to play some proactive card such as Bloodbraid Elf. If you won't play 4 mana spells, you can decrease the number of lands.
  6. One Spitebellows may be fun inclusion.
  7. In the end, your deck is a burn deck. Go with full playset of Lightning Bolt and go down to two Fatal Push.

AMAZING! I love this deck. I have been working on a deck in a similar vein, but instead of Ball Lightning, I have Spitebellows. Could be strictly worse, but it's a pet card of mine. Have you played with this deck? What are its weaknesses, and is it pretty consistent?

I haven't had a chance to put mine through its paces yet, so any advice you could give would help.

Great deck. Would love to have a mirror match someday.

I attack with a Thunderkin Awakener. In my graveyard I have another Thunderkin Awakener and a Spitebellows. Can I use my attacking TA to pull out the other TA, then use my second TA to pull out the Spitebellows and attack with all three creatures?

The ability to return a creature from my graveyard to my hand is mediocre at best, so what would be the most effective way to take advantage of this commander's ability?

Cards with evoke abilities like Spitebellows aren't terrible.

And Spitebellows

Also some other cool creatures you could consider adding are Ashenmoor Liege , Scampering Scorcher , and Spitebellows . It's unfortunate that they can't be unearthed though but I feel like adding one of those could be funny.

3> Ahhh I've been wanting to play with Obosh, the Preypiercer and Angrath's Marauders - glad you found a spot for them. While you're at it, you could also consider other "damage doublers" such as Wound Reflection and Fiendish Duo. I've thought about a Vial-Smasher deck with a White partner just to add Gisela, Blade of Goldnight.

3> I see you enjoy big monsters and X-spells here. Oh to be young again... but seriously, this seems like a good deck to play them in as you would be rewarded. Instants are your friend, as you can Smash Vials on everyone's turn! No Comet Storm?

3> I would be worried about Vial-Smasher getting nuked from orbit as soon as your turn passes and it's no longer indestructible. You'll find Heroic Intervention and Slippery Bogbonder will help with targeted Exile removal. You already have Destroy and Sacrifice covered I see.

3> I see some cost-reduced and commander-free spells in there, but you have a limited suite. While doing research for my thoughts on Vial-Smasher, I found the following might be helpful - list is just copy/paste, so it will include some White and/or Blue cards:

Emzed on Kresh Into Me Baby (help needed)

Kresh can be built with much more synergy in mind if you like. Take a look at cards like Rollick of Abandon, Chandra's Ignition, Spitebellows, Fleshbag Marauder or Temur Battle Rage to make him more powerful. I'd probably run cards like Lightning Greaves to protect him, and Garruk's Uprising or Rancor to provide trample.
I don't like playing color-intensive cards like Necropotence, Pestilence, Pyrohemia and War Elemental with the amount of mana fixing you have, and Nissa's Pilgrimage or Scorched Ruins don't help you with red or black mana at all. This deck could use a Chromatic Lantern though.
Since you're hardly drawing lots of cards, Reliquary Tower does way more harm to your mana than it's worth. I'd definitely replace that. Maybe colored utility lands like Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep or Castle Garenbrig could fill that spot.
Finally, your deck might even be better off with a different commander altogether. Prossh, Skyraider of Kher or Korvold, Fae-Cursed King maybe?
