Five With Flores

Brian Kowal designed a new R/W homebrew creature deck that he used to win a recent Game in the Gulf “boat” Qualifier. His deck hybridizes Ranger of Eos selection with a Reveillark end game. It comes out fast and has a deceptive amount of power.

4 Mind Stone

4 Ajani Vengeant
4 Figure of Destiny
4 Kitchen Finks
4 Murderous Redcap

4 Mogg Fanatic
3 Siege-Gang Commander

1 Burrenton Forge-Tender
4 Knight of the White Orchid
4 Ranger of Eos
3 Reveillark

4 Battlefield Forge
3 Mountain
4 Plains
3 Reflecting Pool
4 Rugged Prairie
4 Windbrisk Heights

sb:
4 Gutteral Response
4 Vithian Stinger
3 Runed Halo
4 Wrath of God

Vithian Stinger seems a little loose to me, but I really like how the deck has played out so far.

If I were to change anything, I would add some spot removal — probably something along the lines of Lash Out or Condemn in the sideboard — because Brian told me not to play any spot removal in the main deck.

Irony of ironies, Brian won his Cruise Qualifier by swinging with a bunch of Siege-Gang Commander tokens, tripping Windbrisk Heights, and popping Wrath of God. For reals! Then he followed up with Ajani Vengeant to lock out the end game (opponent was Kithkin).

Anyway, give this one a whirl. It is interesting to play and quite different from basically everything else in Standard.

Here’s the video version:
