has anyone tried young pyromancer with jeskai ascendency? I've been tinkering with this idea in a combo-focused deck and it seems like its worth trying.EDIT: for RTFC. I knew in the back of my mind it needed a re-read.

if you get stalled using Fast Zoo until turn 4, you should have mulligan'ed. The edge that Fast Zoo has over other decks is that the threats come very very fast, and pyroclasm cannot kill most of them. I think these kind of lists will be even better now that BB is a thing. all fae cannot trade with it well unless they decide to not block until a scion hits the board. Fast Zoo is very well positioned.
I sorta like this look actually, i just have to see how it will be going fastland --> nacatl, fetch foundry, attack for 3.
EDIT for clarification on 18 lands: 28 1-drops (26 can be cast off a stomping grounds) and 13 2-drops let me keep a lot of hands.
What about this then?
4 Arid Mesa
4 Verdant Catacombs
1 Plains
1 Forest
1 Mountain
3 Stomping Ground
1 Sacred Foundry
1 Temple Garden
1 Razorverge Thicket
1 Copperline Gorge
4 Wild Nacatl
4 Kird Ape
4 Goblin Guide
4 Flinthoof Boar
4 Tarmogoyf
4 Experiment One
4 Ghor-Clan Rampager
4 Vexing Devil
4 Arid Mesa
4 Verdant Catacombs
2 Scalding Tarn
1 Plains
1 Mountain
1 Forest
3 Stomping Ground
1 Sacred Foundry
1 Temple Garden
2 Path to Exile
4 Lightning Bolt
2 Rancor
1 Boros Charm
So Anger of the Gods is now a thing which is a bit scary so goblin guide is safe in the list for sure. One of the great things we HAD going for us was that nobody has a good sideboard versus aggro pre-unban. I have a question about this deck that I would appreciate answers from people who have played zoo before DRS got axed.
1. Does this deck want a basic plains? (I know its convenient, but without Loam Lion as part of the creatures, I dont feel like I want a basic plains in my opening hand ever.
Any opinions based on extensive play would be much appreciated.
RAWR!
go goblin guides over bte. bte is much slower and his mana cannot allow us to cast helix off it.
no BTE and added nacatl makes e1 a very consistent 3/3 turn 2 though. i'd hold off on dropping him yet unless a creature light version makes for a better zoo. I'm interested in seeing what helix can do for us though.
I get to add boros charm!!!! w00t.
you'd be playing loam lion over goblin guide. We'll have to see if the new metagame likes the extra toughness or haste more. if the format stays as slow, then haste is the better of the 2.
+4 Wild Nacatl
HELLLOOOOOOOO KITTY KAT!!!!
yay! I'm so happy this deck is getting the recognition it deserves. The hive mind / inkmoth nexus secondary win-cons really let this deck win outta nowhere!
I cannot express how much I detest this manabase. 18 lands is fine but thats not the issue. 4 MD searing blaze costs RR to cast. Runs 3 MD forests with only 1 MD mountain, and ALL the fetches find forests only. Must have had a very lucky selection of opponents because this deck just folds hard to burn. There are only 2 copperline gorges in the list because the creator added a 3rd forest to play around his SB Blood Moon better (blood moon hurts landfall because you can no longer fetch with fetchlands, and running 18 is already so low as is…)
I am not a fan of this list at all.
-4 pillar of flame
-1 wooly thoctar
-4 bte
-lands
+4 tribal flames
+2 snapcaster
+3 geist of st. win
+ different lands
you are playing domain zoo without domain. might as well help your deck out with triple splash instead of your current double. your list looks much more domain than any kind of deck here.
