Remember the Fallen is another we could use. Since we can pick either or both of taking back artifacts and creatures,why not take back two artifact creatures? Seems perfect to me as a SB for removal. I personally think Dispatch is a guaranteed 4-of MD, then siding it out when you're playing something without creatures. Due Respect is also a possibility, at making all creatures come into play tapped for a turn, plus card draw. SB against fellow aggro? Marrow Shards actually seems like a card we need to watch out for, especially since it can come out for just 2 life. Porcelain Legionnaire is just too perfect for us to pass up. You heard me talk about it before. You know we need it. War Report might not really be necessary to us, but we'd probably have a better chance for "LOL LIFE GAIN" than most other decks in the format.
Tezzeret's Gambit does give us the draw we need, but then that proliferate just sits there useless. I think it'd be better for W Infect, if we want to try making that work. I'd certainly like some help. Moltensteel Dragon is interesting, and may be an option if we want to have a big finish. A possible and 4 life for a 4/4 doesn't seem that nice to me, though. Ruthless Invasion does indeed seem like a nice thing to have, especially in conjunction with Unwinding Clock. And until I see someone come up with a practical application for it, I'm going to have a hard time loving Darksteel Relic. Yeah, it's free, indestructible, and easy Metalcraft, but it still seems like a useless card to me, something that could be replaced by something more useful. Even Ornithopter functions as a blocker.
I think we're basically going to have to rebuild our RW decks from the ground up once NPH hits. And I also agree that Hex Parasite is going to be a hot card when it comes out. Granted, we could just be hopeful and it won't turn out as good as we think, but I think it could bring some serious Jace-hate.
Edit: Before I forget: Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer. That is all.

I don't think it has a home right now, naturally, but I can't wait to see where it ends up. This seems like it could be really good.
Baw.
Enemy fetches are a different story, and there's plenty of potential on either side of that debate. We'll probably find out by mid-week next week whether they're there or not. Seems like something Wizards would want to tell us to get us foaming at the mouth.
Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster. I really like your list, SuperSeed, but I'm curious why you're running Lightning Strike over Magma Jet. From what I can see, there's really not much difference between 2 and 3 toughness right now (with the exception of Fleecemane Lion and Sidisi, Brood Tyrant), and the Scry 2 seems useful.
Said two comments after someone saying they found it in Newfoundland, Canada. I think you mean "another awesome North America only buy". I don't think many Canadians would appreciate being lumped in with us 'Muricans.
That's where I found the couple bundle packs my store had, yes.
I recall Medium being an option, and Large is obviously an option, as that's what I snapped a pic of, but I think the other other size option I might have seen was XL. I'm not 100% certain of it, but I'm pretty sure the three packs I saw were all different sized.
Turn 1: Land, 1 CMC Sliver (or nothing)
Turn 2: Land, Manaweft Sliver
Turn 3: Land, Hivelord (or 2/3 cost other sliver)
Turn 4: Hivelord (if you didn't T3 him)
If you're on the play, you could have him out before a Verdict is even remotely a problem. Then you only have to care if your opponent is playing W or Curse of Piggies.
An interesting perspective. It's possible that they only included Liliana because she's the most iconic B planeswalker, which would also be why they used her original art in her mugshot.
