Omschrijving:

The deck is fast, powerful and as easy to play as it gets for a top tier deck. The deck has a wide variety of super-fast draws that can leave an opponent back on his heels flailing to recover. Whether it is a second turn Wild Mongrel enchanted on turn three with Elephant Guide or a lowly Llanowar Elves powering up a turn-two Call of the Herd token followed by another on the next; this deck poses questions that must be answered very quickly.

Most current versions of the deck have opted to put Phantom Centaurs into the deck, edging out the Skirk Marauder. What does the deck you are currently playing do about a turn three Phantom Centaur? Most decks have few answers and fewer turns than that to find them.

One of the things I find so interesting about this build is that for an aggressive beatdown deck it has tremendous card advantage built into it. Call of the Herd comes back for more as does the Firebolt. While Elephant Guide is not actually card advantage it does even out if your opponent deals with the enchanted creature as opposed to the traditional card disadvantage inherent to most creature enchantments. Every card in your graveyard helps to fuel your Grim Lavamancers. Violent Eruption pumps up your Wild Mongrel before it kills multiple creatures. The Phantom Centaur will often eat multiple creatures and spells before it finally goes to the graveyard and so on.
