Challenge of the Week

Ok here is a card I saw and immedeately wanted to use. It is one of my favorite color combos. It is only three converted mana, and just two colors. It features direct damage, which isn't my typical approach. It features discard, which I love. It's an instant.

Yup, it is Blightning!


















I love this card for so many reason, and yet I have never included it in any decklists. So I'm going to try to build a BR deck that focuses on the theme of blightning--damage and card advantage. Ok, here goes.

4x Mogg Fanatic
4x Thoughtseize
4x Raven's Crime
4x Lash Out
4x Incinerate
4x Manamorphose
4x Bitterblossom
3x Sygg, River Cutthroat
4x Blightning
3x Flame Javelin

4x Sulferous Springs
3x Graven Cairns
8x Swamps
7x Mountains



Adding blue for some puppeteer clique and vendilion clique makes good sense (make your opponent discard kitchen finks, sower of temptations, and murderous redcaps, then use them against them). Also, I'd like some grixis charm in there. Basically, take the focus off of burn and put it into control. Bring in the burn from the board, if necessary.

From conflux you can play with Nyxathid. If your opponent isn't holding many cards, it is a huge turn three creature.

Nyxathid 1BB
Creature - Horror
As Nyxathid comes into play, choose an opponent.
Nyxathid gets -1/-1 for each card in the chosen player's hand.
7/7

So there you go. I finally build my blightning deck. Anyone else?
