Welcome to the Hog Roast!

On tonight's menu we will be serving pig, and lots of it. This deck is a basic Young Pyromancer token deck, using spells to control the field while building your army of 1/1 elementals.

Use Purphoros, God of the Forge along with the Young Pyromancer to really dish out some easy damage. Molten Birth especially helps beef up the God's damage and helps fill your field with creatures.

But on to the main dish, swine! Use Curse of the Swine either defensively or offensively, whichever the occasion calls for.

There is the obvious of playing Curse of the Swine defensively, turning the mightiest of Gods and heroes into pigs. From there you can either bounce them into oblivion with a Cyclonic Rift, or you can blow them all up with a Ratchet Bomb ! Don't hesitate to cast the spell on only a few creatures early game, you'll have plenty of burn to roast a hog,

Playing Curse of the Swine offensively is even more fun! You can use it on yourself to change all of your 1/1 elementals into 2/2 pigs. The minor upgrade is not what can be deadly, though. With Purphoros, God of the Forge on the field each transformation triggers. You can also use Teleportal to send the piggies over to the troft.

Tips or suggestions for this deck are greatly appreciated, hope you enjoy the Hog Roast!
