RDWThis I built for my son to play in the LGS standard tournament. I am concerned about not including
Flame Sweep or
Lava Coil. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Upgrades are listed in the maybe board. Currently
Light up the stage and
skewer the critics are out of stock at the LGS.
Sideboard Guide: (Designed to be printed for my son to use as a reference guide; he's 7)
Multi-Colored Fires:
Fry in,
Footlight Fiend out.
Fry to deal with
Teferi, Time Raveler Footlight out; no haste.
Torbran, Thane of Red Fell in,
Legion Warboss out. Torbran gets around Clarion, Legion doesn't
Blue/Green Ramp:
Scorching Dragonfire in,
Shock out
Claim the Firstborn in,
Footlight Fiend (1) and
Chandra's Spitfire (1) out; Claim to get Krasis,
Risen Reef, Leafkin, or Grazer to take put them off tempo.
Legion Warboss in, Torbran,Thane of Red Fell out; to go wide with Legion
Sacrifice: Red/Black
Torbran, Thane of Red Fell in,
Legion Warboss out; due the small powered creatures.
This deck may be well aligned against Sacrifice Decks. But, I've debated putting
Flame Sweep to deal with
Gutterbones,
Cauldron Familiar, and
Priest of Forgotten Gods and
Lava Coil Rankle and Spawn.
Control: (Usually Blue)
Legion Warboss in, Torbran,Thane of Red Fell out
Legion builds creatures without casting them, this helps against counterspells. Legion also gets under
Disdainful Stroke, unlike Torbran.
Fry and
Scorching Dragonfire in,
Shock,
Footlight Fiend, (1)
Scorch Spitter out.
Fry/Scorching deal with Planeswalkers and
Arclight Phoenix. Footlight and Spitter are too slow; no haste.
Adventure: Green/Black
Claim for Lovestruck Beast and Dragonfire for Rankle
Maybe bring
Flame Sweep into the board as an option for the Edgewall Inkeeper, and the 1/1 for Lovestruck Beast.
Torbran Out, Legion in. Goblin creation to deal with deathtouch creatures.
Adventure: Green/White
Tibalt in to combat lifegain and
Fry for Gideon.
Torbran Out, Legion in. Goblin creation to get wide to fight 1/1's
Footlight out, no haste, and (1) Chandra, (1) Spitfire, and (1) Spitter out.
Cavalcade Deck / Mirror
Out Race:
Torbran out for Legion b/c of CMC
Over Burn:
Torbran and Legion out for Dragonfire and (1) Claim
