Deck Description

Inspired by Callmeishmel's deck:
http://www.mtgvault.com/callmeishmel/decks/molten-vortex/
this variation is designed to be a bit more *reliable* by adding in some draw cards to increase hand size and activate Molten Vortex a bit sooner

How to Play

Draw lots of lands, then discard them to damage your opponent through Molten Vortex. More lands = More damage!

Deck discussion for Vortex of Molten DOOM!

I think there are better options than divination and artificers epithany. you can run 35-40 lands, so I think you can literally run 5 colors. much better mana options too. the lands that gain life and the man lands all seem good

Yeah. I was just doing a quick search for standard draw cards and they seemed ok. Any ideas for replacements?

Add B mana & run Read the Bones in place of Epiphany? The scry aspect would (hopefully) give you better draws.

I had thought about it, but that means completely redoing the mana base and, well...... Effort. I'll look ay standard black draw and get back to you

interesting. lots of lands, and lots of draw. not sure how I feel about the trade off discard for draw cards. seems... counterintuitive. but I guess it helps you get rid of the non--land cards that you don't need. so... not bad. and days' undoing reshuffles them that would be an excellent card for imprinting on something like mirror. however that isn't standard.

overall, not sure. I would have to see it played out before I passed judgement on it either way. looks fun though. :)

I would run Anticipates rather than the Divinations, I know you could get more gas with the draw two but anticipate practically guarantees gas at instant speed with less mana to cast. Also Sphinx's Tutelage with all this draw going on wouldn't be a bad idea.

Just FYI, Divination is out of rotation. Other than that, great deck!

It was in when I made this deck. If you have a standard equivelant, please let me know

There is no standard equivalent, but there are several cards that could work:

Zephyr Scribe - lets you draw and discard fast

Treasure Cruise - lets you delve, and draw more

Palace Familiar - 2 mana, when it dies lets you draw a card

Mystic Meditation - can be good, depends

Never mind, you're already running treasure cruise, maybe increase to 4?
