You should take Nissa Revane out, because unless you fill your deck with more elves, she's a pretty useless planeswalker to you, at the very best the deadliest she will be is to get you 1 nissa's chosen and you'd only gain 2 life each turn after, but that's all she would do.

Birds of paradise might be a good idea to throw in.

You should look into Echoing Truth =]

I like spirit decks =] You should definitely take cackling counterpart out of your sideboard and main deck it. It works amazingly in my spirit deck, either that or just replace it all around for phantasmal image. In fact I highly recommend Phantasmal Image, it's very versatile. Cool deck

Talrands Invocation is something that can maybe be replaced =p

Yea you really can't go wrong with lightning bolt and other burn cards in a red deck. I think just about every red deck I own runs a playset of lightning bolt.

That's been the trend of suggestions for this deck. Yea i do feel my mana base is the biggest problem right now, I've been trying to fix that, I'm looking for some duel lands for it =p

This is true, but with rancor in here as well it'll be making the opponent sweat a little bit i was thinking, a 3/3 doublestrike is annoying, but a 5/3 trample doublestrike is devastating you know? I might just be partial to assault strobe, I absolutely love that sorcery, It has won countless games for me

Very interesting deck, I like it... The first couple turns look like a race of creatures coming out.. It looks really aggressive. If I could recommend something, Assault strobe is a very aggressive card and very cheap, I bet it would mesh well with this deck =]


If you have time I'm trying to improve my Creature Snag Mill deck, if you could give me any opinions on it I'd appreciate it =]

Seething songs would be beneficial, along with adding 2 more dark rits, it'll get those big costing dragons out much faster

Yea I don't really get why the green is in here other than for mana ramp, but you could just make this mono black and have dark rituals.

You should switch patrician out for something better, there are better vampires for 2 drops even than that

I really dislike Dreadwaters, I don't think it's very effective. If you happen to have the card you should get glimpse the unthinkable, otherwise drop dreadwaters and add mind sculp =p

I do want mind funeral and glimpse the unthinkable in here more than I'd want tramatize tho, 2 and 3 mana is just such a bigger advantage than the 5 drop

Thanks :) im glad you like it, and i like to keep it with what I have in it at the moment, it helps me builf and improve, but i will tell you what i will plan on getting it to. Probably take out stolen goods, spelltwine, raven guildmaster, and a silent departure... add in 2 mindshriekers ( ill have that updated as soon as i get to my computer, im on my phone) , 1 jaces phantasm, and 1 guiltfeeder... this is all maybe tho for it, im still unsure what to switch in and out so i appreciate the opinions and feedback. Amd obviously my entire mana base will change when i get my duel lands... i wanna try to fit in mind funeral and dark rituals bit idk if that will happen or not... thanks for all this feedback

I wanna keep all my returns if at all possible, maybe spelltwine (a 6 drop is kinda high for this deck), maybeee raven guild master, haha that'll kill me tho, i love that card so much, although ive never gotten to use his ability once, he always gets removed the turn two after i play him... hmmm

Thats an exellent thought, i have 2 mindshriekers too...hmmm i might do that, what should i take out? I would say the shriekgeists but they are actually very effective in this deck, way more than i expected

Yep, I completely agree, my mana base needs fixed with lands like that, those are next on my list to get and add to this deck. This is my actual deck so I just don't own those yet or I would have updated this already, thanks for the suggestion tho... Any other suggestions or thoughts at least?

you should add some mana spells like seething song (to help hit your big spells quicker) and geosurge (to get out your artifacts really fast)... spells like that... Maybe take out myr enforcer for another indestructible... And honestly lightning bolt might help for early on creature removal =p

seething song is just nice because i see it for this deck at least as a turn 3 fire servant or guttersnipe and 2 burns ya know?

But ya i can see how they dont work everytime, i built my deck more around those kinda cards so i see what your saying, but to me they are just too useful in a burn deck

if you want speed and damage:
Seething Song
Pyretic Ritual
Rite of Flame
Kiln Fiend


Those are all cards you should look into especially with guttersnipe out those cards all work perfectly together...

I have a very very very fast red deck that incorporates all of these together, and I even have a turn 1 win combo with it, tho generally it's normally turn 3 when I'd take the win, Check it out if you need any ideas for this deck, it might help ya out...

Hellrider would be a really cool addition to this deck, mixing its ability with raid bombardment. This is really cool, I wanna get ahold of some raid bombardments try now to my own idea out with this... Really good build

Angels grace is nice for a big time staller...And I agree with echoing truth, I have it in my isochron deck and it's devastating...Mines not modern tho so I also have counterspell in it which is even scarier.

Serra Ascendant seems a but off for this deck, because your lifegain would only consist of him (a 1/1) and if you pull your wurmcoil... I think there is a better creature for his spot, like transcendent master or something =p
