MTG Salvation

Huge in a blaster deck full of buff and burn.

Do these work together?

If the opponent chooses to take the Vexing Devil damage, can the player play Desperate Gambit in response?

Insanity - :2mana::symb::symb:



World Enchantment

At the beginning of your upkeep, you may put a mania counter on Insanity.

At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player discards a card for each mania counter on Insanity.

Does anyone use Goblin Assault, Bitterblossom or Awakening Zone in Stax decks competitively? I've tried the first two and they were pretty fun, but I only play in a casual environment.

I would think Awakening Zone would be pretty nice. Extra mana if you need it, and the effect is optional, which might be nice if you were playing against Oath of Druids.

What does MUD mean, is it an acronym?

Can Lightning Bolt + Wild Ricochet + Wild Ricochet + Level 4 Echo Mage's ability = infinite copies?

I would do it with Shahrazad.

Wouldn't that total 17 with the GG?

The new Abyssal Persecutor from Worldwake would go great in this.

Anyone think Ankh of Mishra ever be used in aggressive Type 1 decks? It sure would make fetch lands costly.

If Hive Mind is in play, what happens if someone casts a spell with Split Second?

I have a Survival of the Fittest in play and a Squee, Goblin Nabob in my hand, tapped out at the end of turn. On my next turn after I untap, can I pitch Squee to Survival, and still trigger his upkeep ability so he immediately returns to my hand?

Obviously there will always be a place for proxies. Where is that place? I'm wondering what everyone thinks of proxies, and how much they are tolerated. I personally don't mind them that much, but it can be annoying if they don't have the card text on them, and they can be ugly. (I don't play in tournaments though.)

Anyway, what do you all think?

Say I'm at 1 life and have a Yawgmoth's Bargain on the table. Can I pay my last life for a card? How about if Angel's Grace is preventing me from dying, could I go to -6 life and draw 7 cards?

Do I get priority after my opponent casts a Planeswalker? Say he casts a Tezzeret the Seeker. Can I kill him with a Psionic Blast before he can use any abilities?

Hey, just looking for ideas on my new deck.
