"Silver Pieces: Red Silver 2014"


"Silver Pieces: Red Silver 2014"

I always wanted to have a deck ready for every format.Sadly because land can be so expensive especially in Standard Tournament levels you could only have enough funds for some.

Here would be my Mono Red Silver Pieces 2013 if the format ever got off the ground:

22 X Mountains

4 X Rakdos Cackler
4 X Burning Tree Emissary
4 X Young Pyromancer
3 X Fanatic of Mogis
4 X Gutter Snipe
4 X Firefist Striker
___________________
23 Creatures

4 X Magma jet
4 X Skull Crack
4 X Ordeal of Purphoros
___________________
12 Spells


Like any red deck the whole purpose of the deck is to run any opponents to the ground with early attackers and well timed burned spells.

Magma Jet has always been a personally favorite of mine since I first saw it in the original Mirrodin set. It burns and lets you scry for crying out loud. what is not to love?

The deck is so packed with creatures that could attack early , even creatures like Young Pyromancer and gutter snipe that would take advantage of the times you would cast  Magma jet
or Skull Crack. One gives more tokens and the other the other just piles on more damage. 


Firefist Striker also makes an appearance here to take care of the tough blockers that your opponents have. The big and the tough cannot block. More woe is there is only one creature on the other side of the battlefield.

The triple Fanatic of Mogis is here for when defenses on the other end have already been set. In case of a stalemate in creatures , the Fanatic is the difference. All your creatures need to do is stand there and let the Fanatic count all of their mana cost and Burn...

The Silver format might be a dream for now but this deck is real and it's speed is real.Time to test it for yourself.
