Its one sided, which i imagine really helps burn race combo decks, especially Storm. Its really hard for Ur delver to remove as well as an enchantment. It seems really good, but probably not as good...

Damage not being prevented means you can attack into a TNN and deal with it. I don't know if that pushes it into playability, but its an interaction that will be fairly common. Sulfuric Vortex is a...

If PoP isn't doing 4+ damage consistently because of the metagame, it deserves to be in the sideboard.

+1

Good catch.

I think the raw efficiency of how Burn enables LutS is what really tips the scales. Getting a draw 2 for R that lets you play both cards over 2 turns is incredible, making it so that drawing lands...

Sure thing, just wanted to make sure you understood that it doesn't give you a free land drop. I made that mistake with Act on Impulse once. :tongue:

Even if you flip 2 lands, as long as you...

Just remember that playing the land is contingent on your 1 land a turn allowance; you don't get an extra land drop.

I've been wrong before, nothing new lol. I'll keep an open mind.

What is it replacing?

As a modern player you know that Bomat isn't even good enough for the modern burn deck, so why in the name of Chandra's left tit would you use it in Legacy? It's a more powerful format with an even...

You can posture all day long about this, it's not about trying new cards. If you mix shit and soap does it make the shit clean or the soap dirty? You need to ask yourself why you're mixing shit into...

Burn will always be 'that boring old list'. If you want to try some synergies that have risk but also potentially better damage output (black vise, shrapnel blast, thunderous wrath) and a way to set...

This x1000. I was attempting to be gentle, but my post earlier said essentially the same thing. If you are bored with the most efficient damage-producing cards in mono-red burn, pick up another deck....

Courier just doesn't do enough I don't think. You want a much better return for 1 mana spent. Even your suggestion of Spark Elemental is probably better, although Hellspark Elemental is arguably...

Depending on your expected meta-game, these are good cards to consider:

Exquisite Firecraft
Sulfuric Vortex
Searing Blaze
Forked Bolt

Dead//Gone is seeing maindeck play in Czech Pile lists. I would definitely use them alongside Stingscourger in the sideboard, probably a 2/2 split.

Ensnaring Bridge is still probably your best...

I really like maindeck Searing Blaze and sideboarded Searing Blood as a way to deal with creature-centric strategies. Ensnaring Bridge should be in your sideboard to take care of Sneak/Show and big...

You're going to have to really sell me on why either is better than Smash to Smithereens. By Force could be like Shattering Spree, but less efficient. Abrade is nice in how flexible it is, I would...

Definitely a rough matchup, and it seems that S&T is gaining in popularity again. I'd be boarding Bridges/Needles for sure, probably at least 2 of each.

If you're having trouble with S&T or Depths, wouldn't Ensnaring Bridge or Stingscourger be a little more productive? Blood Moon would be decent against Depths as well. Pithing Needle on Griselbrand...

Any reason why Tormod's Crypt wouldn't be a good option? On the draw against reanimator you can just lose (been there, done that) but if you're on the play or they don't have the t1, Crypt can be...

I think Stingscourger is a sub for Bridge, not Pyroblast. Pyroblast would take other slots like Surgical, Molten Vortex, etc. I can't remember, are you playing Sulfuric Vortex main? I would suggest...

Fair enough, but I don't think I've ever pointed a burn spell at Jace, like ever...and I already recognized that it has value against Show and Tell. I just don't think its enough against that...

Fair enough. In defense of Electrickery, it can be cast for only 1 mana and kill one elf, or if you have the mana it can be cast in response to a Heritage Druid activation and disrupt a Glimpse...

Not instant? No flyers?

No thank you. At that point, Pyroclasm is far superior.

@Ace: nice catch on Faerie Macabre, another really good option.
