The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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

So, Gitaxian probe got banned. Wizards thought they finally killed storm. Well guess what? Storm is back, in a totally new form! Enjoy!

How to Play

So, it's a normal storm decks, but with purphoros and stuff. Bring out cloud key or heartless summoning, then purphoros and storm out turn 5 ideally. Or just kill them with purphoros.

Deck discussion for Modern Creaturestorm

Biggest problem I see is the mana requirement of your creatures. Cloud Key and Heartless Summoning only reduces the generic mana, meaning you still have to pay for the coloured mana.

Grinning Ignus is a deceptively bad card for this. Bouncing it to its own ability costs you {R} and even with Heartless Summoning and / or Cloud Key, you have to spend another {R} to recast it. It's ability only supplies one {R} for all your troubles, meaning you have to have an outside source for the second {R}.

Now, Heartless Summoning and / or Krark-Clan Ironworks with Myr Retriever is a good creature based Storm loop. Workshop Assistant could be added to this, but it requires either 2 Heartless Summoning or 1 Heartless Summoning + 1 Krark-Clan Ironworks to supply the loop.

Simplyfy it!

heartless summoning, grinning ignus, grapeshot and the rest is filler.
(thin out with manamorphose , faithless looting, street wraith and other)

protect it with pact of negation or silence.

I love the idea, seems like it can stall a great deal too, with Æther Adept and Dream Stalker.

I'd for sure cut some cards tough, Grapeshot perhaps, or much more likely Past in Flames

Ever think about using something like Cascade or Ripple?

cascade would be best to get heartless summoning, but how do we get to grinning ignus?
