Inspired by the holiday I just want to say what I am thankful for. I am thankful for non basic lands, spells with a converted mana cost 3 or less, and creatures with less then 3 toughness.

Who said we are fixing the matchup with bridge? It does help win games against reanimator and its also in the board for other MU's.
I mostly just bring bridges in against SnS, reanimator, lands, and merfolk. Alot of times they just can't beat a t3 or t4 bridge and typically they don't expect it.
Ok yes reanimator is our worst match up. That deck mostly slipped my mind because its numbers have been down. A quick look using Starcity's deck finder (yes I know there are other tourneys but at...
Right now I think that with the right board plan we can get to where we want to be against the field 'cept for omnitell. The only real way we beat them now is to race them and hope they have a slow...
@Ultrab77
Well the initial reason I switched was to try it for popping counterbalances and omniscience. Also doesn't hurt that a lot of the best sideboard hate against burn are enchantments(chill,...
Just got eliminated from Jelly Jam 2015 in the top 6. I have been playing the following list for a while now both in Jelly Jam and a few local tourneys. I took 3rd in a charity even this weekend and...
Nope never tried roast. The card you are roasting you should have other answers to (batterskull) or just flat be able to race. A 2 mana sorcery that doesn't kill delver and can't go upstairs isn't...
Of all the origins cards i think molten vortex is the closest to playable. I think if it sees play it will be out of the board. Congratz to all the burn players that have been top 8'ing recently....
I try to play around with other decks but always come home quickly. I just love being the bad guy...
@chatto
I personally love the searing effects. I currently run 3 blazes main and 3 bloods side. They are the best of both worlds. Instead of ignoring your opponents creatures to go upstairs just...
@TrevaBlues
I like your sideboard plan we have different choice for a few spots but they all answer the same decks. Good luck at the tourney.
Ok so what is everyone's sideboard plan for...
@Nina
I think your statement on fetchlands is correct. Yes foothills or tarns probably gives your opponents the most range of decks to consider when thinking "what deck is my opponent on?". It also...
@LOLWut
If you think the deathrite deck is good play it. No one is twisting your arm to not test it. The performances you've posted are either small tourneys or dated but if you can go do well at a...
@krimsonviper
I appreciate the criticism. I didn't go in detail about too many of the cards on the list because that isn't what I wanted to write about. Originally I didn't even have a list in the...
Hahaha is that how this works now? Disagreeing with you is misinforming new players? Both cards have their merit. Exiling 2 cards often isn't enough against dredge or storm. Both cards can fall short...
Yeah you just beat goyf decks naturally. I just bring crypt in against reanimator, tinfins, dredge, and past in flames storm. Yeah those decks CAN go off turn one but most times they don't. If they...
Well that sacred foundry was supposed to be an arid mesa. That slipped through editing. I think crypt is just better then faerie macabre. It has more applications in more match ups. I played both for...
After some conversation at the shop I play at I was asked to write an article about how I play burn. Check it out. http://bccomix.com/playing-the-game-with-legacy-burn-cameron-ramsay/
I switched from relic of progenitus to tormod's crypt. The cantrip off relic was nice but I like not losing tempo when using crypt. I've found that if I can keep up my normal pace that dumping the...
@burnwillows
It looks like your sideboard has little help for elves. Cage stops NO but in my limited testing I don't like e-bridge. I just board out the 2 vortex and a lava spike for my 3 searing...
@Burnwillows
Congratz on the top 16! Are you taking legacy burn to a big tourney or just locally. The MD 60 probably stays the same but board might change. Have you played legacy burn, or even just...
@burnwillows
I agree with chatto. Grim gives decent dmg output and utility without ever having to venture into combat. As for the vortex/blaze split, I think he is correct there as well. My local...
@scott
In your testing how often can your list t3 somebody? I know the deck isn't strictly built for the t3 kill but I feel like the threat of the t3 kill is very important. Mono red is already...
Thanks I_Hate_Counterspells. If the meta is anything like I saw at Indy I can't see a good reason to run swiftspear over lavamancer. Elves was EVERYWHERE. Lavaman is also good for controlling bugs...
