"Major" Updates? —Jan. 2, 2023
Made a few tweaks here and there, mostly adding things like Umezawa's Jitte for utility, Shadowspear for similar reasons, as well as Drach'Nyen+Sword of Hearth and Home for additional shenanigans to pull.
Considering dropping something like Throne of Geth for more interaction, or just a pure boardwipe like Damnation or something just to have a token boardwipe effect in here, while it and energy chamber have their uses here, they're a bit slower overall than the general tempo, they can put in work in long games, but i want to experiment with more "Rushdown" type tactics and less slow-burn.
Plate is OK to really solid, technically cheaper than the swords and gives WUG Protection here, so it'll block a lot of effects. It just can't be gimmicked the way Hero's blade can
Shadowspear and Reaver are 2 i've also considered, and bloodforged isn't as good as any of the others because it lacks a toughness bump
Of the 4, Shadowspear is one i actually plan to add, probably over heartpiercer bow or something, but it's easily a giant threat (and i need to find my copies of it in my collection)
Mostly, for tweaks to this, they either want to be effiecient (3-ish CMC TOTAL) or bombs (5+ CMC Total)
Shadowspear does a lot for a "3" CMC (1 cast, 2 equip) - so does cleaver at 6 (2R Cast, 3 equip) which are easy to hit, plate though is weird, as you can't equip it turn 2 without pulling Amber since it's a 3-equip cost - (T1 Land, ring, plate - T2 Land, Flamewar, Amber, Equip plate)
It basically puts it in the same boat as the swords where it's not AS good until turn 3+

Cool deck! Would the following equipment suit ol' Flamewar as well?
