Izzet Drake with Thud After a few Goblin Ramp testing, I forsook it. It's just too casual to win any game after Bronze rank. Instead, I netdecked Izzet Drakes from MTGOLDFISH lists.  With a pinch of innovation, besides moving Fight with Fire and Banefire into the new deck, I added Thud. Why use it? 1. Surprise Playing against Drake decks, your opponent always counts damage range when determining whether to hold a removal in hand or just cast a planeswalker/big threat main turn. For instance, you have a 7/4 Drake and the opponent's at 15 life, he or she may choose to cast a Carnage Tyrant main turn rather than holding Vraska's Contempt if the damage from Drake doesn't feel like lethal the next turn.  But if you draw a Thud, your hit range doubled and the opponent won't expect that to happen.  2. Low cost Let's say you have 5 lands on the battlefield, 6 spells in graveyard on turn 5. You cast Maximum Velocity on a drake in you han

This is my first try. Game Plan: 1. Ramp up mana and deals 10 damages in the early stage. 2. Kill with a Kickered Flight with Fire or Banefire. Ramp cards: Skirk Prospector Runaway Steam-Kin Finisher(?) Flight with Fire Banefire Video here: Version 2: Warchief is replaced by Warboss More videos will be added(need to play it against mainstream decks).

Followers, readers, friends, strangers! I am back! Besides deck building / MTGO trading, my blog will include more limited/competitive event topics from now on. I stream everyday: Twitch channel name Lotus_ring Streaming time 6:00 - 9:00 (PT) 14:00 - 17:00(UTC) First of the first of the first...... Some people believe MTGO is dying. It's not true, please. As long as it holds official events and the prizes are surging, it is very safe. What will happen to card prices? Keep dropping. They are controlled my Treasure Chest content, which is directly monitored by WOTC. So, they want cards to plummet, no one can do anything against it. Reasons behind their decision? I probably got a handle of it but won't tell here（It's related to the MTGO profit model）. What should players do? Enjoy the game! You can build more decks with cost lower than ever. The prizes is biggest in history. What's so bad? Next article is about my Dominaria draft adventures o
