if there was a dislike button, i'd click it just because of the name. -.-

so, -1 doom blade, -1 disfigure, +2 inquisition of kozilek.

and in the sideboard, -1 sorin, -2 massacre wurm, +2 doom blade + 1 duress.

i took out the massacre wurm, because I honestly can't see me favoring him over gravetitan or wurmcoil, and replacing anything else will only heighten the curve.

now i have options for 4 inquisition, and i'd only want 3 duress mained anyway, so now 3 are in the sideboard.

look good? (:

I know I can't make room for 4 inquis. but how does -1 disfigure -1 doom blade sound?

also, after thought last night, i can't see where sorin will actually do me much good.
so then I'd have some sideboard room, as well.

suggestions?

.... I dont know if you guys know just how amazing royal assassin is.
as they tap to attack, before the assign blockers step, you tap royal assassin to kill their attacker. now their attack is no more, lol.

the removal of 1 doom blade and 1 go for the throat could help, though. maybe, we'll see.
but my main reason for this comment was to clarify how truly amazing the assassin is. he's a wall that can't take battle damage. (:

if i werent still in highschool, living under my parents roof, and had the cash, I most certainly would.

ahhhh, I see.
I've only been playing since summer, lol. so i guess I'm still relatively new to the game.

but I know to never empty my hand, lol. and sideboarding i usually dont have a problem with.

but once again, thanks for the advice. (:

It's all about metagame, i feel.

if i were going to nationals or such, i'd deff. swap the bombs to the side and main the duress'.
but where aggro is so huge here, they're a necessity.

thanks man, im glad somebody out there has confidence in me, lol.

but i gotta say, the guys I play with seem to be masters of the sort.
im scared of some of the decks they run, but with your suggestions, i think this new deck I have going can really take the cake.

thanks a lot, man. (:

but what do you mean by over extend?

depends on whats on the field and what's in my hand.
if i have an answer in my hand, i dont pop the bomb.
if i have a post-bomb play, blow the bomb.
if i havent neither answer, but am about to get my ass whooped, blow the bomb.

black is about sacrifices. and sure, ill lose a nighthawk and assassin, but who cares if I'm saving myself from getting blasted through.
usually though, the sacrament can take care of that.

but where boros and goblins are so huge in my metagame, i find that 2 bombs maindecked is a good idea.

never really thought about it that way, lol. nice. (:

but again, how do you feel mine can stand up to that reputation?
you seem to know your stuff, and as a magic player I want to do the best i can to win my local fnm ;P

hahaha so can ratchet bomb. ; )
duress however, cant remove walls. ;P

i miss u/b, lol. they made for good games.

but you say a main goal to beat with this deck is caw-go and mbc, do you really think mbc will be a top tier deck?
and if so, how do you feel my deck will be able to match up with the other MBCs?

i used to run a fairly solid u/b control deck.
but it got raped by boros and goblins in standard. :P

makes sense.

yours and mine?

and to the comment above, luminarch is so beastly. i really think it should be main decked.
you're controlling the board, like you said, and drop it turn 2, it should go off fairly quick.

just an idea. it was used against me today, and i kind of regreted sweeping his board, lol.

but consume the meek is like suicide for me. the only creatures i have that arent +3 are grave titans and wurmcoils,

i own a set of them, but in this deck it will only do more damage than relief.

anytimee. i love luminarch, lol

You know, bonehoard wouldnt be all that bad in this deck...
seeing how it IS an intense removal deck, the creature count in graveyards could stack up fairly quickly.

opinions?

i stillll suggest luminarch. lol

anytime man, let me know how they work out for you (:
