Deck Description

The idea is lots of cheap instants (thinking of switching Lightning Strike out for Shock) to activate Nivix Cyclops, Guttersnipe, and Blistercoil Weird.

How to Play

Get out the creatures quickly, but save the instants as much as possible.

If you have a solid hand of instants, some beaters, and a triton out, hit the triton as much as possible to lock down enemy creatures. Which will give you two solid shots at attack before they untap. Even hitting the Triton with Spark Jolts can work very well.

Otherwise try to kill off as many blockers as possible with the instants then swing in with the Cyclops/Weirds.

Guttersnipe just makes the instant drops so much more satisfying.

Spellheart Chimera is there to help in late game situations. By that point you should have 5-8 instants in your graveyard and 6+ lands. Time to put that graveyard to use.
