While not card advantage, it can easily be card selection that sets up card advantage. Putting Bloodbraid Elf and something worthwhile on top of your library will only deny you a land draw for one turn. I just don't know what this could see play in, but it could be solid.
Although I will have a lot of fun trying to make a cute deck with Past in Flames, Mulch is the big news here, that card will be immensely popular, and not just for Standard...we have it for Modern now, too!
40 Cloudpost, 35 Glimmerpost, 35 Vesuva. I found that interesting. Turns out there were a few players who opted to run 2-3 Glimmers and/or 3 Vesuvas. We need to ban something to prevent the rise of 10-post, clearly.
I laugh at people paying more than 5$ for this card.
It's mythic and a legitimately exciting card. As such, regardless of whether it can be utilized in competitive play, it will go for a lot in pre-sale, and probably won't drop very far. Could very well stabilize in the $7-8 range.
Can't believe the hate for Liliana. No, she doesn't go in every deck, but that's a good thing. She can go in a wide variety of decks though, and has some very potent abilities.
My best friend from high school named his kid Jace, but he was never too bright.
For me, no. And my girlfriend has given me the ultimatum that I can either name our child, or I can be a super-strict hockey dad to him/her. Not sure which I'd pick, but I wouldn't give the kid a Magic name regardless, unless it was one that made sense for real life.
In all seriousness, it is a cool idea, and there's not a TON of hate for it in reality, but keep in mind that combos like this need another out if they do have the hate.
If Runed Halo becomes a popular sideboard card, then maybe Wipe Away or simple Repeal does too. See, both players have sideboards full of answers. I'd be more concerned with Gifts or a combo piece being countered, you're in real trouble at that point.
In the very limited testing I've done with this deck, I've found that I want Koth of the Hammer much, much more than Deus of Calamity or Demigod of Revenge. While those can be Path to Exiled or Dismembered with ease, Koth represents a repeatable threat that, if left unchecked, can end the game on its own. Against Zoo I may prefer to have Empty the Warrens, but against everything else I've come across (again, in about 5 matches of testing, not much), Koth is the best.
Yeah, saw that right after I posted. Hopes and dreams crushed.
Still digging the Think Twice reprint, though. Hopefully its a bit more playable this time around.

I don't know of any in particular, but if the mana isn't an issue, why not add the utility, as well as the ability to hit players in a pinch?
I don't play Dragonstorm, so I don't know if the lands make it difficult to access double red, but wouldn't Slagstorm be better here?
