Deck Description

Ritual Gifts Storm

A mix of traditional UR Storm, and Ritual GIfts.

How to Play

You use Sleight of Hand, Serum Visions, and Peer through Depths to dig for whatever you need. Manamorphose can be used for digging also.

-Goblin Electromancer turns Manamorphose into an actual ritual, and it turns Pyretic Ritual, and Desperate Ritual into Dark Rituals.

-Pyromancer Ascension doubles all your spells and makes every card in the deck insane.

Basically just try to get one of those 2 going, and then chain a bunch of rituals and cantrips together into a lethal Grapeshot. Its pretty hard to win without one or the other on the field though.

Past in Flames allows you to play all your rituals, cantrips, and win conditions twice. Its a powerhouse of a storm engine.

Gifts Ungiven fills a few roles. You can play it at the end of your opponents turn as a set up spell, or you can play it mid combo as a storm engine. Playing Gifts with an active Pyromancer Ascension is just insane, and its pretty much impossible to fizzle after that.

If you have an Electromancer on the field and can cast Gifts with 3 mana left over, the pile [Ritual, Ritual, Manamorphose, Past in Flames] will win the game no matter what they give you.

Deck discussion for Modern RGS

Another enchantment you may want to look into is Pyromancer's Swath. With one out, each Grapesot does 3 damage instead of 1, thus requiring less cards to be cast for the storm :p

I have seen a few lists with Pyromancer's Swath. It seems pretty good. The only thing i don't like, is that it only does something after your already winning, and is a total brick otherwise. Its definitely a cool card though and worth testing out more!

I can say running Bolt alongside Grapeshot usually lets me win with less than 19 storm. After flinging a few bolts for 6 and running everything through with Past in Flames. Once your storming off its usually no problem sealing the deal.

Have a similar deck myself, your deck itself seems fine. I'd swap Shatterstorm out of the sideboard for Shattering Spree, with the amount of R you're generating, it's pretty much the same effect, plus you don't have to "waste" 3 mana if you only want to destroy one artifact.
