Removing Pretty for Performance —Dec. 21, 2022

It's been a minute since I've updated this deck, huh? Well, I've removed a number of cards that simply weren't doing well. They might be fancy, but they don't work. Let's go over it.

Removed

Dockside Extortionist - I know, I know. It's a good card. If you're going fast. This deck goes for the long game, and Dockside just didn't perform well here.

Purphoros, God of the Forge - Another fancy card I removed. We go tall, not wide. If we're going wide, everyone is already dead.

Goblin Lore - I'm removing the random discard. It just hurts.

Reforge the Soul and Wheel of Misfortune - Wheels can help my opponent. I only need to discard specific cards anyway, not my whole hand.

Endless Atlas - I never ended up using it. It's good, but I guess it didn't fit my playstyle. I'm no Josh Lee Kwai.

Mind Stone - My least favorite mana rock.

Tibalt's Trickery - This card ended up being a dead card so often. Plus, it's a nonbo with Fires of Invention.

Worldgorger Dragon - It was in the deck to serve as boardwipe protection. It's a glass cannon, though, so I never used it.

Added

Blast-Furnace Hellkite - This card seems interesting. The doublestrike is super nice, but here's the real kicker. I can sacrifice my artifact tokens from Feldon to cast it! AND THAT'S AT INSTANT SPEED. It's like having another Fiery Emancipation in the deck but it can be a combat trick.

Balor - Now here's a fun card! Too bad you can't target yourself with it (the draw and discard, btw), but you'll get a lot of bang for your buck.

Cityscape Leveler - I'm a fan of a second Meteor Golem that can double as a wincon.

Seasoned Pyromancer and Bitter Reunion - This is much better discard.

Wurmcoil Engine - This keeps coming in and out of the deck. I forgot how good it was. Lifegain, deathtouch, and it leaves tokens behind!

Battlemage's Bracers - This is a great card. Another haste enabler, too. I might have too many cards related to my commander's ability, so I may take out Lithoform Engine soon since it's the worst one. It always gets targeted.

Cursed Mirror - Now that's a mana rock! I love it.

Deflecting Swat - My commander gets targeted too much. This helps with that.

Love Feldon! One of the best cards of all time, design-wise. Definitely an all-time favorite of mine. Your deck was definitely an inspiration in me building my own deck. Every time I visit this page I find something new that's super useful. Like, how have I never thought of adding Sandstone Oracle or Ancient Stone Idol??

Question. Here's my issue, how do I deal with decks like Negan that love to control creatures and keep commanders off the board. Killing it doesnt stop because they can easily blink or play it again. The other is Gix. The value, the mana ramp, the life gain, and everything in that mono black is just soooooo overwhelmingly powerful.
