Instant (3)


Hollow One taken into a different direction. Izzet Charm gives you ways to protect yourself and disrupt your opponents gameplan, something seriously lacking in the B/R version and is never a dead card as you can always use its looting effect. Bazaar Trademage is a powerful turn 2 Unearth target as it gives you a way, with one card to discard 3 cards without the randomness of Burning Inquiry and Goblin Lore

You can also turn 2 kill if you draw the perfect sequence of cards by putting 2 Hollow One into play on turn 1 and unearthing 2 Lightning Skelemental on turn 2 to swing in for 20.

Trademage blocks an arclight which is more then Flamewake Phoenix can say. Seasoned Pyromancer does alot of work in the grindy games.

Lightning Axe was a meta call because I play against a lot of eldrazi and thing in the ice decks where lightning bolt is a pretty dead card.

Plague Engineer is great against humans, a matchup that can be pretty difficult depending on how quickly they start to flood the board against you.

Fulminator Mage has been a great addition and I much prefer it over Liliana of the Veil in current meta

I've found that graveyard hate really only slows me down by a turn or so but doesn't stop your gameplan because you can still cast most of your threats with ease.
