Ruby Storm

[hadhod]

Hello guys. I see this adventure and i think seems good for a full "draw 2" list as below (it's just an example).


// 60 Maindeck
// 9 Artifact
4 Ruby Medallion
2 Helm of Awakening
3 Defense Grid

// 6 Creature
4 Birgi, God of Storytelling
2 Runaway Steam-Kin

// 8 Instant
4 Seething Song
4 Manamorphose

// 18 Land
4 Ancient Tomb
3 City of Traitors
4 Sandstone Needle
1 Dwarven Ruins
6 Mountain

// 19 Sorcery
8 Reckless Impulse
4 Wrenn's Resolve
4 Jeska's Will
3 Wish


// 15 Sideboard
// 2 Artifact
SB: 1 Helm of Awakening
SB: 1 Defense Grid

// 2 Creature
SB: 1 _____ Goblin
SB: 1 Urabrask

// 1 Instant
SB: 1 Chaos Warp

// 10 Sorcery
SB: 1 Past in Flames
SB: 1 Grapeshot
SB: 1 Act on Impulse
SB: 1 Bonus Round
SB: 4 Galvanic Relay
SB: 1 Empty the Warrens
SB: 1 Fiery Confluence



I think (for now, with 0 test, just theoretically) we can do a full combo deck with up to 12 free "draw" 2 in the deck. In fact, Birgi + Ruby cast free each draw 2 and i'm trying to improve this chance with this list. What do you think about this idea?

I work also for a more all-in list in g1:


// 60 Maindeck
// 11 Artifact
4 Ruby Medallion
3 Helm of Awakening
4 Lotus Petal

// 8 Creature
4 Birgi, God of Storytelling
3 _____ Goblin
1 Urabrask

// 8 Instant
4 Seething Song
4 Manamorphose

// 14 Land
4 Ancient Tomb
3 City of Traitors
4 Sandstone Needle
3 Mountain

// 19 Sorcery
8 Reckless Impulse
4 Wrenn's Resolve
4 Jeska's Will
3 Wish


// 15 Sideboard
// 6 Artifact
SB: 3 Defense Grid
SB: 3 Chalice of the Void

// 1 Creature
SB: 1 Urabrask

// 1 Enchantment
SB: 1 Aria of Flame

// 1 Instant
SB: 1 Chaos Warp

// 6 Sorcery
SB: 1 Past in Flames
SB: 1 Act on Impulse
SB: 1 Bonus Round
SB: 3 Galvanic Relay


Just one thing that will be in test: chalice, without drop at 1, seems good against stp/brainstorm from our opponent. Just in test.

after some test, i arrive at this list:


4 Ruby Medallion
4 Lotus Petal
2 Defense Grid
4 Birgi, God of Storytelling
3 _____ Goblin
1 Urabrask
4 Questing Druid // Seek the Beast
4 Seething Song
4 Manamorphose
4 Ancient Tomb
3 City of Traitors
4 Sandstone Needle
4 Mountain
4 Reckless Impulse
4 Wrenn's Resolve
4 Jeska's Will
3 Wish


// 15 Sideboard
SB: 2 Defense Grid
SB: 4 Chalice of the Void
SB: 4 Leyline of the Void
SB: 3 Chaos Warp
SB: 1 Past in Flames
SB: 1 Bonus Round


i set also the list of the sticker if you want test it

// 10 Stickers
SB: 1 Ancestral Hot Dog Minotaur
SB: 1 Eldrazi Guacamole Tightrope
SB: 1 Misunderstood Trapeze Elf
SB: 1 Narrow-Minded Baloney Fireworks
SB: 1 Phyrexian Midway Bamboozle
SB: 1 Playable Delusionary Hydra
SB: 1 Sticky Kavu Daredevil
SB: 1 Unassuming Gelatinous Serpent
SB: 1 Unglued Pea-Brained Dinosaur
SB: 1 Unsanctioned Ancient Juggler


I test for now against WR-Stompy basically (10 MU for now), and in first approach seems i have a good MU against prison decks. Chalice doesn't do nothing (except chalice at 3), Karn/bmoon same, The aggro way also becuse we are faster (more or less, 70% closing at T2).

I have also less test with 8-Cast and mono Brown combo (1 and 3 respectivelly): for sure, the MU changes and i think it's better doing all faster against combo and slower against the Mu with 8-fow. in fact, playing birgi in the horn side is the key for MU like 8-cast (if he doesn't go in aggro mode).

I want test against MonoW for stimate if 3 Chaos are good or not in SB (in particular for thalia + [card]Deafening Silence[/card].
