An excellent piece written by juzamjimjams on his current take on the Aggro Loam archetype. Worth a read for Loamers old and new.

Shame the other best part of barbarian ring wasn't mentioned, it's a secondary loamable kill walkers when your fires get surgicaled in games 2 and 3.

Solid. I like the approach. I always wanted a more aggressive curve with the deck since combo felt pretty terrible often.

Surgical is certainly one of the strengths of Barb Ring, thanks for the feedback! Definitely should be in there, guess I just missed it in the writing process.

An excellent piece

It stopped being excellent when this person chose to say "f*** them" about a subset of players. Terribly immature, low self-esteem people like this are exactly what make getting into or back into Magic so not worth the time and devotion. What's his problem?

As a Manaless Dredge player myself, I thought it was pretty humorous. Having people hate us as a boogieman is what sustains our life force. :D

My favorite is where people drop a DRS and look at you with that "I got you"-look and you just power straight through that for a T2/T3 kill.

That, and people dropping a Thalia with pretty much that same look on their face and you just proceed to dump 10+ power on the board w/ some Bridges as backup.

I love Manaless.
