Unblockable Nivix/Kiln Fast

by ColonThree on 22 September 2015

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (18 cards)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Creatures that you make unblockable while being buffed into the heavens, this with a slight exception to Monastery Swiftspear which is more of a solid 1 drop creature who still has synergy with the deck. You generally don't gain much buffing only that creature alone.

Temple of Epiphany is also a card used mostly for the sake of solid first turn play, preparing to make sure you can get that 3rd turn win going.

Dispel is put into the deck for those pesky moments that happen all to often where you buff your creature, make it unblockable and then it is destroyed, bounced or removed in some other way. Damn instants. Mizzium Skin has the same use.

Skullcrack useful vs them preventing your damage or lifegain etc. You hit really hard, but if it's prevented you barely got any cards left to buff with due to lack of carddraw. Same with lifegain, if they somehow gain enough life to endure the hits that would be quite bothersome.

Sideboard is things I consider or have considered, there's no actual 15 card sideboard decided yet.

How to Play

The deck hasn't been fully tested yet, but this is how it goes so far.

Monastery Swiftspear/Temple of Epiphany first turn.
Preferably Kiln Fiend second turn.

Turn three:
If Kiln Fiend is out - Ask yourself, can I oneshot this turn? If you got double strike and 2 additional casts available most likely go for it.

If no Kiln Fiend is out - Either play Nivix or Kiln Fiend if possible. Having to wait even further is risky.

In general I always attempt to save my cards for a oneshot, not wasting them if it'll only do slight damage.
You only really need Artful Dodge and Assault Strobe with Kiln Fiend out to do 20 damage, with the same play possible with Nivix Cyclops ofcourse.
