Ah true i didn't think of it as a response to removal. Cheers.

Sooooo easy to remove. 2/2 almost any burn spell can remove that. I'd put them in this deck if you want to see them on the board for one turn and resolve their ability maybe once before they hastily make their way to the graveyard.
I see you've made a big change to this deck. Glaring spotlight... also a card i would not main deck. Think about boros charms instead, they give you protection over your tokens as well as burn. the double strike will barely be useful to you but the other two are nice.
So easy to counter hand control like this. You just smash cards out as fast as you can and get your starting hand on the board. This would feel so much nicer if it splashed a bit of red. all of your damage is late game. You're gonna get seriously punished late game. I would also consider a better choice for a one drop. Isn't there a one drop rat that makes an opponent discard when it dies? That way you can take early aggro easier and destroy their hand faster.
Less plains more swamps. You have a higher mana base for swamps, all your one drops are black and you have a crypt ghast. Definitely more swamps.
Skullcrack is definitely a sideboard card. I would never main deck that. Also there's a new card in dragon's maze that is just a straight up better version of dynamic charge. (R) give a creature +1/+0 and first strike and you can overload it to do it to everything (1) (R). It'll save more of your creatures. I think it's called 'weapon surge' or something.Also you have a higher red mana base so you might want more red than white. And your mana curve just makes a massive leap from 2 to five. Feels like you need something for the in between and maybe a higher mana base in general (22) because it just seems like it's going to be really difficult to ever cast your blaze commandos.Consider some 3 drops or 4 drops. You could always have a couple of spark troopers as well and just treat them like a burn spell rather than a creature, because they pretty much are. Spark troopers are really nice aggressive cards that keep you going and just smash face, love em'.
No problem man :) x
May i ask why mortus striders? it seems like it would totally ruin the flow of the deck.
Looks slow though. Any deck with a decent amount evasion or direct damage would rinse this deck. Any good sideboard could deal with this. Psychic strike might be good with this if you're looking to hold people off and control the game, and more of that 'mill until you hit a land' stuff. Just seems like walls are kind of easy to deal with. Maybe a few good walls and more control would be nice. It would hold of any big burn spells, or something like aurelia's fury.
just a minor issue, you need more forests than islands and at the moment it's even. Also, duel lands would be nice. Otherwise, cool deck. +1
What are you flinging? All of your cards are 3 power or below. It would be far more consistent to just have searing spears, and you wouldn't have to sacrifice anything. Even if you did it on something with madcap skills, it still means you're sacrificing a creature AND a useful enchantment that already give you evasion for one off damage. I can see it being useful on the very odd occasion. Have you tested this deck out? I'd be interested to know if fling comes into useful that often. Fling's pretty good with things like zealous conscripts, if you want to keep it in. It's fun to steal their creature, attack with it and then fling it at their face. Although you'd need a hefty mana base for that.
God i would hate to play against this deck... talk about the longest game of magic ever, it seems like it'd take forever for your win condition to ever kick in. Also, riot control needs to be a sideboard card, if you're facing a not very creature heavy deck that card becomes just a very expensive fog. Also, you might as well have one more rhox faithmender and one less boon reflection. I'd also try and trim this down to 60, otherwise it's gonna be pretty weird and inconsistent. Cheaper to buy as well, if you are considering buying this.
Have you thought about war leaders helix in this deck, or Bump in the night?
