I see you added Koth. Does it work out for you? About the Fire Savant. He (5CC) seems a bit unreliable for a deck that runes 19 mana. Have you thought about switching Rush of Blood out for Temur Battle Rage? They have the same effect you desire, or am I overlooking something?Credits to this build, it must be said.

How about Koth of the Hammer (if the budget allows it) and Hammer of Purphoros? The collar doesn't seem needed at all. Turning your land into creatures seems a like a big benefit.
Maybe Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, to get more mana for Nylea's activated ability?
You can't counter Slaughter Games. ;)So you should add some extra win conditions. I also think your mana base is a bit screwed. Why do you even play black? Just for the tutors? Thats not worth it, really.
Yeah. I agree. I tested it a bit and it is great.
How does the Inaction Injuntion work out? I've considered that card. I really don't like the sorcery speed, but the extra card does make up alot.N.B. Strange, MTGvault lists Inaction Injunction as a instant, but it is an instant for sure. They need to fix that. ;)
Pff. Keep those capitals at a minimum. That makes a post easier to read.I do like the detention sphere, but im conserned about the amount of enchantment removal. Playtesting will find that out though.
Of course. It is very fun to play! :)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see Brave the Elements targetting anything. Besides that protection does not protect you against boardwipes. So that's why I don't see a place for Brave the Elements.Ps. Protection from X means: Damage that would be dealt to this object by a source of quality X is prevented. This object can't be equipped or enchanted by a permanent of quality X. This object can't be blocked by creatures of quality X. This object can't be targeted by spells or abilities of quality X.
Problem with this deck this the massive amount of graveyard hate. Almost every deck will have some graveyard hate sideboarded. This will simply ruin your combo and deck. I like the idea, but sadly i think it is not going to work.
Btw. Why is Brave the Elements in your sideboard? Isn't God's Willing better for this deck. And you mainboarded that already.
Hmm. Wear // Tear is even cheaper. Yes, you can't use the Wear, but the Tear only costs (W). Might even be a better options since two mana for 3 life is not worth it. Have you thought about mainboarding Swan Song. I bet your buffed up, unblockable Fabled Hero will get a lot of removal on his ass. Swan Song might be the right answer. Hah. I see you just removed it from your sideboard. I;m not sure how to fit this in though.
I like the idea of this deck! Mainboard looks pretty strong.You might put some extra enchantment destruction in your sideboard. Ray of Dissolution for example. I think you won't be able to handle the enchantment heavy decks by just the detention sphere. That card will get destroyed/exiled more often now since everyone is expecting enchantments and therefor sideboarding more (or even mainboarding) enchantment destruction.You might get rid of the Soldier of the Pantheon. I think your sideboard can do without it.
This one looks sweet. One question: why are there only 3 Flash cards, woudn't 4 make more sense?
Well what I meant with 'Hard to beat' was that they didn't win the game for my opponents. They could only use it as a defense force. Which isn't too good against a deck that always has more creatures then you have. Maybe i'd rather use 3 mana for a lightning mauler and a cackler. Or have the option to burn one of their creatures before I attack. There's even been games the Reckoner didn't even get the chance to block due the Firefist Striker.But as I said. I'll give it a try with 2 (since I only got two atm).
Nice! I like this deck already. Since I do own most of the cards I might try to build it. It looks really funny. :)
Agreed on the Bolas, Thoughtflare can be handy when you can discard a Mystic Retrieval (if you have only 3 mana left).Bolas should get in for a Wurm I guess?
Yeah. I've been thinking about the Reckoners. I might put them in, but then I need to add a bit more mana I guess. Which cards should I remove? Firefist Strikers and Legion Loyalists?I've been playing against those Reckoners many times. Most of the times I didnt find them that hard to beat though. Maybe that's why i decided not to use 'm.
Thanks! I'm still finding ways to make this deck a little bit more competitive against aggro (without screwing the budget up).
I would cut on the Enchant Creatures. Especially the skeletal grimace (and maybe also the endless scream). Just put a few more creatures in it.
