Another thing you could add to the deck is havoc festival. Nothing says raw damage like Lose half your life AND you can't gain life. IT's a great way to control the table if you're staring down any Oloro, Ageless ascetic decks. Also you could add Torgaar, famine incarnate because no matter what a person's life total is their health will be reduced to 20 when he ETBs. What do you think of these suggestions?

Thanks Moto but I am using a companion that requires only spells with odd mana costs. So while those suggestions are good they are even mana costs and can't be used with the companion

[G. Moto]

Ok i understand that. So you'd probably wanna focus on 3, 5, 7 at the most CMC and X-spells. I gotcha.

I have a suggestion for you if you'd be willing to try it. Ravos, Soultender is an odd CMC partner that would allow you access to white in this deck making it mardu colors and also still remaining true to your odd cmc restriction. This way you can run cards such as the blessed sanctuary and tajic, legion's edge. This way you can throw the damage around and none of it comes back at you or your board state of creatures. I offer this as an idea if you'd like to attempt to take the deck in a different direction. If not then you could try adding volcanic vision, volcanic fallout and pestilent spirit. This way your burn spells are sure to remove creatures and they can carry double the work.

I actually like this idea. It would surprise my playgroups because of my playstyle of damn the consequences even if it does things to me as well. This idea of yours would surprise them because it would switch gears. I have some of these cards and would definately open things up in the other colors

[G. Moto]

I'm glad that my idea was able to inspire you. Also if you get blasphemous act down to one mana it becomes an odd cmc spell. That;s pretty dirty dealing 26 damage to each creature on the board and your board being untouched with tajic and even running pariah on another creature at the same time means that your life total becomes safe, the enchanted creature won't die and if the creature does die then Ravos will bring him right back later.

[robort]

Thanks again moto. Why I like your idea is when I use Heartless Hidetsugu and if I have Blessed Sanctuary on the field with any of my damage doubles. I will take no damage while my opponents either die or go to 1 life. Plenty of white sources that prevent damage as well such as Burrenton Forge-Tender, Auriok Replica, Glacial Chasm, Ethereal Haze, Personal Sanctuary, Prismatic Strands, Protective Sphere, Riot Control , Endure ,Safe Passage,and Pay No Heed.  So I think I will put in Ravos with a splash of white...

Then let that directed chaos commence then!!!

This deck looks...painful. Fire, death, and destruction everywhere! I have never, not even once, thought about using Obosh with Vial Smasher. Very interesting!
