Looked at it. Many VERY good ideas. Sadly, the pyromancer loves the RED cards. And by pyromancer, I mean me...

Hi AzraelTheSlain - just getting ideas for my discard deck. Liking very much. Cheers
See? I knew there was a simple answer! This deck is #1 on my "must build" list. Thank you very much
RE: Mana curve - ignore the "6", Gempalm gets cycled NOT played
I'm a n00b so if my question seems dumb...well, it is! Why Evolving Wilds & Terramorphic Expanse? These are cards I avoid. I just don't like "discard this to get what you really want". How about cards like Fungal Reach, Gruul Turf, Moog Hollows or Pinecrest Ridge? They list between $.25 & $1.0 & they provide either green or red (albeit with possible penalties). LOVE the deck, btw. I like any deck with the word "Budget" in the title.
Passed on Seat of the Synod for the islands as the Spire x4 has affinity for Islands. But it was seriously considered. I'll be sure to go over the other artifacts you mention. Thank you for the help...
Thanks. I'll be the first to admit that it would play sooo much smoother if we just dumped the white. But if I did THAT it would be "Snakes on a NOT-plain" - Sorry, I'll keep the theme & the bad pun. I used to compete in non-MtG tournys that rewarded "weird-but-effective" as well as good. While I was never good, I did manage the other fairly often.
Ahh, someone made the Zappa connection. Well played, good sir! Anyway, the goblins think it's THEIR deck, but it's actually Fluffy's deck & she'll be "Gobbling up the Goblins". Another bad pun, I'm afraid. I hit someone with 28 damage by feeding Fluffy 7 goblins with 2 Shenanigans in play. I became enamored of Pyromancer thru the xbox: Tap to attack, play a 1 mana goblin, untap, lather/rinse/repeat. I grill a lot, so perhaps I see myself as the pyromancer. Only a psychologist would know for sure... Thanks for comment & the score.
Quite right. I should have specified: That's NOT a real sideboard. If I had my "druthers", I'd put the 4 Enforcers in place of, say, 2 land, 1 silver & 1 omega myr. But it is HER deck & it does win more than lose so...
The Dark Rituals x3 were there for Wits End x2. Since I took those out, I swapped Gibbering Kami x3 for the Rituals. Just love the flying / soulshift effects The deck LOST in the holiday weekend "Last deck standing" contest to the Blue Artifact deck (W1: L2) but I feel much better about its chances...
I will sing your praises loud & long! Making EVERY change you suggested (incl. less land in other decks). I may not have ALL the cards, but I know where to buy them. Except for Kira, your changes aren't hard on the wallet. No too worried about mana curve because of the Sunken Ruins & Dark Rituals. I usually avoid onesie/twosie cards in a deck. Assuming a game goes 8 rounds (our usual), then I'm seeing 25% of the deck, so I'd need 3 or 4 to have a good chance of drawing what I need/want.
Hey thanks, that's awesome! I'll have to rethink my mana totals in our other decks. Any other help would be great
Swamp?
RotFLMAO!!! I love this deck!
Awesome concept - thanks for introducing it to me! Maybe I can do SOMETHING with the 4000 junkers & clunkers I just bought...
Well, you can't have 6 Lightning Bolt - limit is 4.
