[DTW] Sligh

[alphastorm]

I did a search and didn't find sligh.

Here is my deck but it's from a long time ago. I recently added Hellspark elementals in place of mogg fanatic since they are no longer that great with M10 rules. Please help me make this 2010 Deck to watch.

4x Jackal Pup
4x Hellspark Elemental
4x Grim Lavamancer
4x Ball Lightning

4x Incinerate
4x Firebolt
4x Volcanic Hammer
4x Fireblast
2x Seal of Fire

4x Cursed Scroll

4x Wasteland
4x Barbarian Ring
14x Mountains

As much as I hate to say it, it's because Mono-red Sligh has been outclassed by a lot of other decks. Going straight for the dome with Burn on one spectrum, and Goyf Sligh/Zoo on the other end. There's really nothing that Mono-Red Sligh can do that other decks can't do better now.

So basically ball lightning is no longer played? It'd be hard to play two colors with ball lightning in it. What about goblin decks? Are they significantly better than sligh?

I still play Sligh! It's a bit of fun sometimes:

4 Goblin Guide
4 Spark Elemental
4 Hellspark Elemental
4 Keldon Marauders

4 Lightning Bolt
4 Fireblast
3 Incinerate (becomes Price of Progress if the meta is full of non-basics)

4 Chain Lightning
4 Lava Spike
4 Rift Bolt
3 Reckless Abandon

18 Mountain

Board:

3 Sulfuric Vortex
3 Price of Progress (becomes Pithing Needle if Price of Progress goes main)
3 Red Elemental Blast
3 Pyrostatic Pillar
3 Smash to Smithereens

Pretty consistent Turn 4 kills made possible by Reckless Abandon. Actual effect of card may not match representation made here.

Still, good for a blast occasionally! I will jump the [DTW] Sligh bandwagon though, go Sligh!

Kicks is right though, a very steep hill to climb to get there...
