Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Use the Cloudstone Curio to recycle kobolds, using Mana echoes for basically infinite colorless mana. Mana acceleration should give this deck a turn 2 win potential and fairly consistent turn 5 wins. Any advice on making this a little faster even would be appreciated. Vintage Tournament deck.

Deck discussion for Kobold X Burn

2 Kabolds + Curio = Inf loop = Boosted Storm count, why not a Grapeshot? or just Furious Assault. And in vintage it's easy but expensive to speed a deck like this up, moxes, lotus, sol ring, those are your best bets. Hope this helps. Check this out, Turn 1 Lotus, Mox Ruby, Land, Sac lotus for Curio, Play kabold, play second, return first to hand, repeat, Tap land and Ruby for Grapeshot = first turn kill.

And just to say, I don't really see a need for the Cairns, do you even have black in here?

Can't afford a Lotus or a Mox, maybe if I win the lottery, but even then there's more important things to spend money on. I do have about 5 Sol Rings though, I might throw one in there. The Cairns are for the spend one to get two effect, the black is irrelevant. I didn't use Grapeshot because I've seen it before and wanted to do something different. I should be able to empty my hand pretty fast with this deck, so I figured a Demonfire that can't be countered would work just as well.

The problem is that the Cairn's needs to tap too so essentially you tap 2 lands to get 2 mana and the cairns can't change the colorless to red cuz it requires R/B to activate. The thing about Grapeshot is that, yes it is used a lot, but there is a reason. Disintegrate and Mana Echoes are heavily used too, but I do see your want to be unique and I respect that. You can't put in 3 sol rings and have it be legal, only one, but I totally understand your problem with the lotus and mox.

I basically just wanted to use SOMETHING from the new set in there, that's the real reason for the cairns. And it does give me the ability to sideboard in some black if I want.
