Deck Description

G/R aggro. Meant for multiplayer where there is more time to build. Meant to insta-kill someone once set up. My local group plays a lot of blue so hexproof is very important here.

How to Play

Put down a couple creatures as blockers. Equip one with a mageslayer and get it hexproof. Wait until the time is right. Pump the creature super high then attack. Loads of unblockable damage from mageslayer then a giant trampler to deal with.

Deck discussion for Mage Slayer - Gruul Mode

i dont think this will play the way you think it will... because of bloodrush's effect, the creature already has to be attacking for it to take effect. now since mage slayer states whenever this creature attacks(meaning the moment you tap and declare it as an attacker) it deals its damage. basically you cant bloodrush pump into a big mageslayer bonus

now if he bloodrushes while the ability is on the stack it will work (works the same as beastmaster)

Yes, looks like I would have to work through that issue with the local group as whether it would be allowed or not.
