Deck Description

My R/G Aggro deck made post-Gatecrash. Any advice or opinion is greatly appreciated. The decklist is essentially Saito's R/G aggro list. I just updated the sideboard for my local meta. I'm mostly just putting this here so I have a written copy to update as I make changes and to get opinions on any changes that should be made.

How to Play

Sideboard: Naturalize- for "Bant Enchantments" and and "Assemble the Legion" decks. Comes in over Pillar of Flame more often than not, because when it is needed, Pillar won't hit what's beating me. Legion Loyalist- is mainly for token decks, but the battalion for first strike is a boon against decks that play a lot of low toughness creatures (Mirror or RDW). It usually comes in 1:1 with Rakdos Cackler. Volcanic Strength- is for Mirrors but also shines against forms of RWU with a lot of blockers and most Mid-range decks that use red. (Naya and Jund) Skullcrack- helps against a lot of decks in my local meta. It helps against decks running Azhorious Charm, Centaur Healer, Sphinx's Revelation, Thragtusk, etc... It varies on what it comes in for, Searing Spear against Bant Enchantments and other decks that can gain life but doesn't play many blockers; and the weakest card in other match ups. Mizzium Mortars- proven to be very useful against a lot of midrange decks that run Huntmaster, Resto-Angel, and Loxodon Smiter. Casting the overload cost is a rare occurrence but definite possibility. Can come in for anything based on how much removal/speed I need.

Deck discussion for R/G Aggro

Awesome deck :) My only suggestion is to use Lightning Mauler somewhere in your 75. I'd say run it over Rakdos Cackler for more explosiveness. Fantastic aggro deck though, great job!

Your deck is completely the same as my deck.

In fact the only difference is in our sideboard. That said I obviously think this is a really good deck and glad to see great minds think alike.
