I'm trying to find a pioneer deck for PT Phoenix and I'm wondering if UR Phoenix is good enough ?
It' similar to the same deck in modern... Yes there's no faithless looting but we have treasure cruise !
Here is my list, what do you guys think ?
Is someone here also playing this deck ?
I'm not sure about the quicken. I'm hesitating between this and wild slash (or shock if you don't want yo pay 20$ for a shock card)
Yes, wild slash / shock is good removal in general, can kill the bird turn 1.. but quicken keeps the chain going by drawing a card, and somethimes it will be relevant to cast a treasure cruise in instant ...
(I'm not sure how quicken interacts with teferi, time raveler, but if it works, it could be releveant)
I think I prefer thing in the ice...
If both are answered, young pyromancer will be better because you will still be able to get 1 or 2 tokens in response.
If both are not answered, Thing in the ice will wipe the board and is a really quick beating (in life points and in tempo/control of the board) !
Young Pyromancer is a bomb. I haven't played this deck with Thing in the ice yet but every time I was ready to set up for a Archlight play having three or six elementals coming onto the board, depending on how many young pyromacer were out also, just wins games. In my experience at least

young pyromancer seems safer with medium reward, and Thing in the ice seems riskier with higher rewards.
