Five With Flores

I just wanted to make sure I got up the deck before tomorrow AM for those who are interested.

Not much commentary on this (need to get my beauty sleep), but I decided after the events of Sixteen Again on ChannelFireball.com that I needed to speed up my defensive speed.

Barely Boros lost [perhaps predictably] to beloved Naya Lightsaber, and the other Boros deck won it all.

That led me to believe that Act of Treason would not be the right tool for this tournament. There is relatively little worth aiming an Act of Treason at in the other Boros deck, and against Lightsaber, it’s probably worth it just to point a Plow rather than a Threaten at the big babe.

Plus, Sean McKeown offered me the use of his Baneslayer Angels for my sideboard.

Selling out much?

Yeah, but I plan to win tomorrow, and all the decks that did best in my testing had Baneslayer Angels.

This is the 75 I plan to sleeve up manana, provided I can find Lightning Bolts:

Barely Boros v. 1 point whatever

3 Ajani Vengeant

4 Burst Lightning
2 Earthquake
4 Goblin Guide
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Plated Geopede
4 Hellspark Elemental
4 Hell’s Thunder
4 Zektar Shrine Expedition

3 Path to Exile

4 Arid Mesa
7 Mountain
4 Naya Panorama
1 Plains
4 Scalding Tarn
4 Terramorphic Expanse

sb:
1 Ajani Vengeant
2 Earthquake
4 Goblin Ruinblaster
2 Volcanic Fallout
4 Baneslayer Angel
1 Path to Exile
1 Plains

Good luck tomorrow, unless you’re playing YT.

LOVE
MIKE
