heh, looks VERY similar to my ponza beats, so i'll just enumerate the
differences :]
- 4 shock + 4 stone rain
- 1 shinka + 1 nexus
- 4 mountain + 4 chrome mox

i found molten rains beeing too less of LD and playing with more burn in
their place resulted in way worse record... also - i have no mono-black
in my meta, so shinka wasn't needed...
this will be probably my deck to play at regionals...

Ahhhhh.. Almost looks like a mono-red Type 2 version of my friend's Type 1
B/R LD deck, and a current version of the Type 2 deck (for
Invasion/Odyssey/7E) that I'd built based on it. I'd been pondering running
something like this. What do you think of slipping Mirror Gallery in so you
can play with multiple Ankh-on-Legs and Kumanos at once?

That reminds me.. why did you not add Chrome Mox for mana acceleration? I
presume it's something you've tried.. How did you find it? The other card
going through my head is Trinisphere. If you have a way to drop it turn 1,
you've slowed your opponent down greatly right there. Desperate Ritual might
also be able to wiggle its way in too. Turn 1: Mountain, Chrome Mox, Ritual,
Trinisphere. Turn 2, Mountain, Zo-Zu. Turn 3, Eat his children

I have to agree with this. I don't see using only 4 LD in a deck. Also, I'm
running Sowing Salt in mine, but am definitely going more the LD route.

I like Shinka. Don't see much Horobi, but if it happens to be out when Kumano
is out, so much the better.

To further my LD, and in preparation for some sort of Arcbound Ravager
banning, I've sided out the Hana Kamis and am running the Akki Blizard herder
as well as that one-cost sorcery that causes each player to sac a permanent.
The combo of a stone/molten rain and then that card (sac'ing the herder, of
course) can be a killer in the early game.

Anyway, I'm running that and about 24 land. Stalking Stones (don't own any
blinkmoths) and a couple of that new land that becomes a spirit when it dies.

No sliths because I don't have any moxen

That's about mine, I'm looking to try it this weekend.

my deck tonight went 4-1-1 in the first six rounds and I went on to win
the top 8.

So far my deck's like this. 4 wins, 1 top-2 intentional spit, 1 top 4
and 1 top 8. Pretty impressive so far huh?

Hijack... Interested in a deck list of your friend's Type 1 B/R LD deck as
I am in the process of refining mine.

Cheers
