No Brainstorm can't be right? Seems interesting.

Looks interesting.

[Megadeus]

Siege is actually pretty sweet. Nerfs burn and discard a bit along with being a nice enabler against other decks

[Esper3k]

It does look sweet but too bad at 3 mana and not doing anything until your draw step, it feels a little slow?

It is worth noting that the other mode is still good - turning all of your creatures and yourself into Frost Titans seems OK. Since it adds the additional cost you also have to pay more for Abrupt Decay, which is nice.

Hi guys,

my deck is more a Vengevine Midrangedeck as a "real" Madness.dec. I don't know if it's the right thread, but my deck isn't a "Tradewind Rider BirthingPod.dec".

Maybe you have some opinions for me. Here is my decklist, I'll call it "Survival-Revival".
Nethertheless:

// Lands
1 Snow-Covered Island
1 Snow-Covered Forest
4 Misty Rainforest
4 Wooded Foothills
2 Scalding Tarn
3 Tropical Island
1 Taiga
1 Snow-Covered Mountain

// Creatures
2 Dryad Arbor
4 Noble Hierarch

3 Izzet Staticaster
1 Nightshade Peddler
1 Scryb Ranger
1 Quirion Ranger

4 Fauna Shaman
4 Vengevine
1 Shrieking Drake

2 Vendilion Clique
1 Scavenging Ooze
1 Reclamation Sage

// Spells
4 Green Sun's Zenith
4 Brainstorm
4 Ponder
4 Force of Will
2 Stubborn Denial

// Sideboard
SB: 3 Pyroblast
SB: 2 Hydroblast
SB: 1 Stubborn Denial
SB: 1 Silumgar Sorcerer
SB: 1 Sower of Temptation
SB: 1 Trygon Predator
SB: 1 Genesis
SB: 1 Kitchen Finks
SB: 1 Sulfur Elemental
SB: 1 Cunning Sparkmage
SB: 1 Magus of the Moon
SB: 1 Faerie Macabre


Most maindeck cards are straightforward. My removal are 3 Izzet Staticaster who i can untap with Quirion Ranger and Scryb Ranger. Also a Nightshade Peddler can combo with him to kill Tarmogoyfs and Tasigur. Additionally Nightshade Peddler can be combattrick with an instant Dryad Abor. Don't forget to bounce Dryad Arbor by a Ranger to activate Fauna Shaman again;)

SB:
Cunning Sparkmage is my 4th pinger. I need a different one for D'n'T MU or especially for Phyrexian Revoker who name Izzet Staticaster and win the game.
On other site i've 2 Stubborn Denial as a hardcounter with Vengevine vs Terminus or something.


Do you have any thoughts about my list or wanna discuss to a vengevine.dec in legacy?

So far
Rabrab


EDIT:
MB: -3 Spell Pierce +2 Stubborn Denial (hardcounter for Terminus, StoP, etc) +1 Ponder (flexslot, but it should be blue)
SB: -1 Stubborn -1 Jace TMS +1 Pyroblast (hardcounter vs Snapcaster and CB) +1 Silumgar Sorcerer (searchable Counterspell, engine with Genesis by sacrificing herself)
