Deck Description

Blightning and Duress get rid of the opponent's hand while dealing damage with Liliana'a Caress. After their hand is gone, Hellfire Mongrel and other burn cards will pump Chandra's Spitfire for some big damage. If all else fails, use Lightning Reaver to finish them off.

PLEASE MAKE SUGGESTIONS AND RATE! I WANT TO USE THIS FOR FNM!

i've been on the fence about liliana vess. if i would add her, then i would take out bituminous blast. however, i would like the opponent to discard as early as possible, while they still have cards in their hand. also, bituminous blast cascades into anything, except lightning reaver. ill test the deck both ways

First off, I really like the synergy between all of your cards, so I don't want to do much to mess it up. If you're going with the theme of discard, there is Guul Draz Specter, but I personally like your choice of lightning reaver better for a damage dealing finisher.

The only changes I would actually make involve your lands. A few Lavaclaw Reaches could help provide a game finisher if you have spare mana after wiping out their hand, or they could provide some defense/removal if you need it. Even though it produces colorless mana, I would also add in Tectonic Edge so you can destroy opponents' non-basic lands (in case you run into something like a Valakut deck with mana accel).

Finally, you could sideboard in some graveyard hate like Bojuka Bog or Relic of Progenitus in case you run into some graveyard recursion. Other than that, you've made a very solid deck :)

I play a very similar discard deck. The Blightning/Liliana's Caress combo is killer. One time in play I had 3 Caresses out., and played 1 Blightning which caused 15 damage. Hard for an opponent to come back from that! I do use Liliana Vess in my deck and her discard ability is very helpful, plus she is a good distraction for my opponent.

thank you everyone for the suggestions. i will try to use lavaclaw reaches if i can get them and i run thought hemorrhage in my sideboard for graveyard recursion. with regards to liliana vess, she actually is a very good distraction, but like i said, ill test the deck with liliana and bit blast and see which one i like better
