Deck Description

Thought I'd start out with a deck like I used to make in the old Microprose: magic the gathering game.

How to Play

I avoided p9 stuff, although a mox or 2 couldn't hurt.
Basically the idea is just use the direct damage to clear the board and
then drop a ball lightning and buff the heck out of it and swing for the win...
and pray he doesn't have any instants to ruin your day,
although fork may help counter some of those.

Oh and I put lots of color hate for blue, black, white in the sideboard.

i like this deck a lot. i have only seen 93/94 red burn decks being comboed with blue so far, but i like the idea of green for this. especially the Ball Lightning + Berserk combo.

maybe switch out the Llanowar Elves for Birds of Paradise since they also give red mana (and are immune to the earthquakes, but that's mostly irrelevant because of the Hurricanes).

I was considering birds, either will work.
I randomly chose the elves because they had 1 more power.

what are your thoughts on Ghazban Ogre ?

well since Ball Lightning takes 3 red mana i think BoP would be the better choice.

ohhh, i was always wondering, what kind of deck could handle him. yeah i guess it would work! but what to take out? since u are running Mana Flare i wouldn't take out any of the sorceries.

btw, have u considered Wall of Fire instead of Stone Wall? to burn surplus mana from Mana Flare.

Swapped elves for birds, I put in the stone wall because the only thing that could kill it in combat back them was the colossus of sarda. where as the wall of fire is a lot more vulnerable, I had considered it though, also with the wall of stone I will be able to cast larger earthquakes without wiping out my defenses.

ps. I wonder if it's worth adding a firebreathing to two mostly to slap on the birds....?
