Deck discussion for Stoutarm v7(hopeful dreams)

Rather than Path to Exile or Contemn or Swords, maybe run stuff like Act of Treason or Mark of Mutiny? May as fling the dude you're gonna kill rather than kill it and give them life or a land.

Illusionists's Bracers is good here, too. More than once I've copied a Serra Avatar fling with it.

The issue with using threaten effects over hard removal is that they require me to have stoutarm on the board and untapped, effectively cost 4 mana, and are mostly Sorcery speed. Exile is also far more powerful than simply sacrificing it, and giving them some life or a basic land is usually irrelevant. IMO, this pros outweigh the cons for 1 mana instant speed exile versus threaten and fling stuff.

One Serra Avatar fling is usually enough to win me the game, but I have several other creatures that Illusionists's Bracers would be good on, I'll consider it.
