I have gotten some flack about the 61st card and running only 20 lands. I have found that due to the nature of the deck 20 is enough. I have also been questioned on the lack of burning vengeance and once again think it slows the deck down. When I originally built this deck I had plans of using the burn as mostly control but found myself against a spirit deck and I was tapped out for two captains to hit the board. In that game I learned I can race with direct damage and I've been using it that way since.
