Kagu-Tsuchi is the kami of fire in Japanese mythology.
Punishing Fires (Jund) centered version of NicFit. This is the one NicFit version to fully incorporate Liliana of the Veil.
All the cards currently in the deck generate some form of card advantage. This is also the reason for the absence of Abrupt Decay. Because NicFit always relied on Sensei's Divining Top, we could get away with spot removal. Now, i had to reconsider the build and figured that the deck has to perform better in topdeck modes. 2 versions that are pretty good at that are the new Scapewish and the very focused Academy Rector version. But i really want to make the Jund version work, so after some reworking the new version is here. Currently, the list has removed SBD to make place for newcomers Regisaur Alpha and Carnage Tyrant. Alpha brings an additional 3/3 trample token and gives it haste. It can also give Tyrant haste. Tyrant on his hand has Trample, Hexproof and cannot be countered. This provides some form of inevitability this deck was lacking. Also i found that Thrun, the Last Troll has been performing very well. A lot of decks cannot handle the card and it is also some form of inevitability. Volrath's Stronghold is absent for the first time in my list and made place for Kessig Wolf Run to complement Thrun. Also i found Stronghold to be "dead" in a lot of scenario's AND since SDT doesn't exist anymore all abundant mana can be sinked into pumping creatures. Lategame this also makes Veteran Explorer more dangerous, plus trample means we can attack thru True-Name Nemesis or trample the protecting creatures for opposing Walkers. Speaking of Walkers, i have just added a second copy of Chandra, the Mind Sculptor. This card is a house, in combination with PFire things go out of hand quickly. This multi purpose planeswalker also provides an alternative angle to win games (meaning outside of combat).
Why 7 basics, where 2 are Mountains? This version runs maindeck Chandra, Torch of Defiance. To land it out of an Veteran Explorer trigger, you need 2 Mountains. This aside of Nissa, Vital Force that requires a basic Forest to remain in the deck. To succesfully ensure flipping Nissa when she is played, always try to keep the third basic Forest in the deck. The 7 basics also ensures that every creature in the deck can be fetched using Green Sun's Zenith of basics alone making this deck Wasteland proof. Be advised, PFire NicFit is super fun and MEGA GRINDY!
