Deck Description

Well the deck sets up the combo of Bridge from Below and Dread Return for a Flame-kin Zealot on the second or third turn. It runs ample disruption and is fairly reliable winning on the 2nd-3rd turn turn about 85% of the time.

Basically you Bazaar of Baghdad to get either a Grave-Troll or a Stinkweed Imp (or both) into your graveyard and dredge to get your library and enough creatures into your graveyard to get the various return to play creatures into play (Ichorid and Nether Shadow).

Cephalid Sage is interesting but why waste a dread return on it?

The Sutured Ghoul/Dragon Breath combo is better than the Flame Kin Zealot version.

I would have to disagree with you EchaniDrgn the combo you speak of is more vulnerable to removal (graveyard, field, etc.), requires more cards (including some like Dragon Breath that are useless on their own), tends to take a turn longer to set-up, and makes the

deck into a complete glass cannon that can be brought down by a single well timed card. The Flame-Kin/Cephalid set-up is very hard to reliably disrupt in comparison.

Everyones entitled to there opinion and a twenty/twenty trampler on the third turn is cool but 17 3/3s with haste on the second turn is better!
