Blistering Fury

by L00fah on 15 April 2013

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

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

My budget, modern red/blue that capitalizes on sorcery/instant usage. It's had pretty good plays so far and wins 9/10 games with relative ease... Though, to be fair, the people I play with are more casual than I am.

Looking for ideas to improve it and add to sideboard on a budget.

How to Play

I tried to build it so no matter what creatures you had on the field, you could always guarantee synergy between them and your sorceries/instants.
Blistercoil Weird and Incursion Specialist, as the main attackers, are beefed up by all of them (notably Trumpet Blast).

Deck discussion for Blistering Fury

Hopefully now I can get some help with this thing.

Also: does Electromancer's ability work with the Overload costs?

Yes it does, as you "cast" the spell for its overload cost.

Nice day btw mate, I would drop the Runewings and the Incursion Specialists for another copy of Guttersnipe, Electromancer and Blistercoil weird, and add in two copies of Talrand, Sky Summoner.

@Buzz-gsc: I can't reply directly to you, so hopefully you see this.

I considered adding Talrand, Sky Summoner. I only thought of it last night, so it's funny you bring him up. I also thought about adding Cackling Counterpart and Rewind, too. Though, I'm having a harder time justifying either of them.
Cackling Counterpart could be used to supplement either of my main hitters, Guttersnipe, or Electromancer; and it has the added bonuses of triggering the sourcery/instant abilities and removing pesky Legendaries. Thoughts on that?

Rewind, however, seems... I don't know. It looks useful, a counter with the ability to untap lands? Awesome. Though this thing never has mana management issues.

As I'll be casting spells often, I figured Incursion Specialist's +2/+0 and unblockable made him a viable option for this deck. When combined with Trumpet Blast, it makes him an unblockable 5-dealer.

I have indeed seen the comment - mtgvault's got some new notification system.

Rewind is most definitely underplayed in standard and fills a 4 mana slot nicely, along with talrand.
The burn deck I am currently planning works slightly differently with fewer creatures and more control than aggro, so I see your point in keeping the specialist in there :)

Yeah I just noticed the new notification system. Amazing what technology can do these days! (Because I haven't been on Facebook or Myspace for the past 10 years or anything...)

I think I'll go ahead and add those cards in somehow. A lot of my decks tend to use more creatures than spells to manage threats. Most of the people I play with use huge creatures or a large amount of them in their decks, so it makes it tough to compete when all I have is a single guy out there that I need to deal damage. :p

Thanks for the feedback, though! Lemme know when your deck is done, I'll take a look at it. :)
