Deck Description

Control early creatures with instants like Lightning Bolts and Terminates. Then completely stop your opponents from playing their hand through the use of red land destroying cards. Finish them off with a killer combination of Megrim/Liliana's Caress and Blightning or Burning Caress. Cards like Poison the Well, Melt Terrain, and Roiling Terrain add insult to injury by dealing instant damage while depleting mana.

Deck discussion for Burning Caress

I think you might need to consider more discard cards in this deck for the amount of discard enchantments you are running; things that come to mind are Hymn to Tourach, Duress, and Burning Inquiry which would be an easy 6 damage for 1 mana. Also might consider some creatures, but i think you have enough removal for you not to have anything. Only other thing i can think of is maybe the rack; which would help when someone starts to top deck.

Thanks for the great input. I originally tried it with more discard cards and found that they were popping up more than the mana destroyers. Once I focused more on destroying land then they wound up discarding on their own at the end of turn. I do however like the burning inquiry addition and will try and sneak that into the deck.

I like burning inquiry, i'd add more. maybe add a lilianna vess or two for tutoring/extra discard.
