    Testing this deck online. Most of it holds post rotation. It's pretty fun and does okay against aggro, midrange and moderate control. Heavy control is a pretty tough match up. 
    Exava is surprisingly amazing. Hasting for 4 power with first strike has won a lot games. She is great to hold and haste attack after Master has done his work, and she can be played defensively as a 3/3 first strike. 


    I can't wait to move duress to the board and main deck thought seize. 


    Lo

      Yeah I just bought Exava playset because I think people will find out how good she is post rotation now that olivia and falkenrath will be gone.  Plus the combo with her and kalonian hydra just rocks.

        Good call.  I went down and completed my playset of Exava and Master of Cruelties last night.  Maybe they go up, maybe the don't.  The combo with the hyrdas seems pretty damn good.  It will be interesting to see if 3 color decks get play.  Burning Earth pretty much decimates them.

          That is a concern playing against red decks as nearly all of them will have burning earth in the side board.  Here's a good set of matches with the new JUND and the only thing keeping it back was Thragtusk which is rotating http://magic.tcgplayer.com/db/article.asp?ID=11369

            Yeah I saw that article.  I thought it was a cool deck, and it has a lot of the cards I dig.  My plan is to play a black deck, that's really it. Since all of the rediculous 2 for1 and 3 for 1 creatures, and flashback is gone, I want to try a more disrupitve/control deck.  Maybe even full discard!
