    Is it just me or does it seem like livewire lash should be a 4 of? Certainly seems better than sword for infect.

    Cool idea I'm just wondering what its advantage is over the more focused burning vengeance decks? Its faster to get out, and has more good spells to use for activation. Plus you can keep counters up because unlike the phyrexian cards, most aren't creatures. I just don't think that deck could survive without using enough phyrexian cards BEFORE extractor comes online to kill them when it does come online. By then you will only have 1-2 cards left to deal damage with unless you can get 2 extractors on by turn 5-6

    Hey i really like what you did here. Mind if i use this as a base to start from? Its my first constructed deck.
    The problem i see with your build is lack of any slagstorms maindeck. With no creatures to speak of can you really afford to have none maindeck? I would think tokens, RDW and tempered steel would all be too fast without some board sweepers, as you are really counting on winning games 2 and 3 with only 3 sweepers. Plus slagstorm can nug the opponent in the face if need be. I guess having not played it maybe im wrong about it being weak against really fast decks? Maybe some arc trails instead of brimstone volley? Tree definitely seems great in this deck against aggro buying you enough time to finish them or stabilize.
    One more thing... bramblecrush seems a bit risky because if you need it and can't get ahold of 2 of your 7 green sources its dead in your hand. I really think the 2 big problems for this deck are nihl spellbomb(obviously) and spellskite. What does bramblecrush really solve that grudge doesn't? O-ring? Any big creature should be leaked/dissipated.

    Hey guys. Never played constructed before but im just going to throat some ideas out there...

    Grim Affliction for sideboard or maindeck? -2 -2 and a poison counter/tumble magnet counter/etc for 3 mana is decent against aggro decks/hawks/stoneforge. Loses points against better removal but gets you an extra counter.

    Tezzerets gambit? proliferate and 2 cards for 4 mana, or 3 if you are in desperate need.

    Viral Drake? With sword of feast and famine you could get a ton of proliferations in your turn theoretically, and it stops hawks without pro blue sword, which seems good?

    I saw that deck with the throne of geths with Necropede and the poison myr. Are either of those worth using without throne of geth?
