Been out of the game for a while 3/13/2012 10:07:30 AM

I haven't played since the Kamigawa block. I was thinking about getting back into the game. Would the Deck I've created here hold up to abuse? I don't know much about the new cards, but hopefully I wouldn't have to tweak this too much.

Any suggestions?

I like the way Punishing Fire Buy and Grove of the Burnwillows Buy play off of each other. I may consider it, but I'm in no position to start dropping money on new cards. I'm looking to get into a few games and not get annihilated that its been so long since I have played. Most of my collection probably comes from Onslaught block and Mirrodin block with a good number of them coming from older sets. I might stand to use more discard elements as I can't seem to find my Control of the Court Buy cards.

I have updated the deck a bit, based on what I currently own and whatnot. Any other suggestions?

Quoting Talruum:I have updated the deck a bit, based on what I currently own and whatnot. Any other suggestions?

Sonic Seizure Buy random discard drawback may mess with your strategy, especially if you discard a card which should not be discarded like Wild Mongrel Buy. Maybe replace it with Lightning Bolt Buy or Violent Eruption Buy for better burning options.

Channel Buy is much better paired with a burn spell, not with creatures like Ivy Elemental Buy. Try using Demonfire Buy, Fireball Buy or Comet Storm Buy instead.

Lastly, put Browbeat Buy into the main deck because (as of this moment) it's your only source of cards to fuel your discard engines. There are other red draw spells like Faithless Looting Buy and Goblin Lore Buy, but they have discard drawbacks.
