well said.=)

which is exactly why extraction is so good, because people wouldn't want to make the "worst" decks, right? =P

well, as surewhynot once said, extraction is like mill on steroids. =) so there, i wait until my opponent decks out =)

is there a format restriction? may i suggest door of destinies?:D

so far, it's just by disabling the opponent, making him rage quit :D

another is by decking your opponent. :D

thanks a lot. i've been trying to make it more effective, but with limited cards, this is as far as i got =)

Though Drift of Phantasms are useful, i think it would make the deck slower.

Removed the Ravlands. =)

checking those cards now...

i was about to ask why arbor elf instead of llanowar elves, then i read the text on bayou and overgrown tomb =))

i actually just replaced my Surrakar Spellblade with that Noggle Bandit, would it be a better choice?

thank you for taking time to check my list. =)

hmm...how do i fix my mana? which non basic lands would you keep?

i agree with noggle bandit, 3cmc is too slow unless it's Wee Dragonauts. although i would disagree with delver of secrets. he really packs a punch at 3/2, since the deck has lotsa instants and sorcs. =)

i also agree with gelectrode, but i can't find the card yet, hence the sparkmage =))

which kinds of search cards would you recommend?

Now that is DIRTY.

can't decide between Noggle Bandit and Stormblood Berserker

i think it's going to be a challenge setting up, no? and why windbrisk heights? i don't think the hideaway feature is really going to help a lot.. =D

but that's just me XP

thanks, i was about to put in captain of the watch, but i suddenly realized that my goal was to beat the enemy to a pulp around midgame, since that's the peak of this deck. i think stalling any longer would deteriorate its performance, but i'll try to playtest it with captain of the watch. =)

Brave the Elements is absolutely one of the best cards out there, but it is WAY expensive on this side of the world =))

thank you! checking yours now. =D

I was going to go trigger-happy with card suggestions, but then i remembered this was supposed to be standard. =))

Have you tried using Brimstone Volley? XD

im at a loss as to what to swap for it.

i had thought of mixing it with other colors, especially blue and green, but i would rather have it as mono red :D

nice deck, and i couldnt add anything more as almost all my suggestions were given already, except probably sideboard either one of the "protection knights" to get a full set of each?

70th like, =))

i seriously like the setup, i had tried suggesting the same for my brother but he was more into black than blue, because he liked removal :))

i'd say it's a lot harder to obtain nowadays though :P

although, seriously, no Dragonspeaker Shaman?
