Deck Description

This deck is about taking control of a players monster, swinging with it, and the making a token copy of it so you can block next turn. What can get better than that?

This yet another deck built with one of my favorite red enchantments, dual casting.

How to Play

The one drop monsters are to keep tempo early game, until you have at least 3 mana. Next you want to be looking for opportunities to take big creatures. Hypersonic, can allow you to do this on your players turn, say if you wanted to chump block with their own stuff. (great for getting rid of the small things they don't attack with)

The traitorous blood combo, either with fling or cackling counterpart, beats out thragtusk, and in the case of fling, gives YOU the beast.

Side for burn in the case of agro, Archeamancer for siding out. Use boros charm in place of searing spear in most cases. Also combos with your steal if you happen to have eight mana.

Syncopate is nice curve ball, side that for the searing spears.

Flashing in a verdict, or a token copy of something at the end of turn has good prospects...
