    I love suffocating blast, I want more counter spells that hurt and more burn spells that draw you cards in UR
    • Fantusta | 26-Sep-2012 22:37
      My problem is that since it only targets creatures it's a dead draw so often.  There's gonna be tons of Izzet cards I'll want in RtR for this.

        There are definitely some good ones, I don't see crazy good things just yet but definitely good, I'm hoping gatecrash is going to be nutz for everyone

        I don't think cutting suffocating blast when you're maindecking blazing salvo is the right call. Blazing salvo, thunderbolt, flusterstorm, Curse of Pierced Heart, and breath of Darigaaz are going to be dead WAY more often then SuffBlast. I'd also cut the negates for mana leaks, negate in hand when your opponent plays his third creature is just bonkers annoying. Maybe rewind if you wanna go big.

        I'd also suggest you go trade your Bonfire for two snapcasters, they'll fit the deck better and in my opinion are likely to keep their value better.

          He speaks advice that I would follow, Especially about negates and bonfire. Plus... two more counter spells? They cover all basses.
