Drop should campaign for a second drop, maybe in another classic Carhartt colour! Doesn't have to be as limited edition, but this was super cool when it dropped and I wish I was able to buy one before they sold out! https://us.carhartt-wip.com/products/rocket-espresso-x-carhartt-wip-cypress-31 [image]

[image] Fires of Invention is the card that struck me as the most powerful card in Throne of Eldraine during the spoiler season. When it works you can be ahead by so much mana. But the difficult part about this card is deciding which other 56 cards to play. In this Standard format, I have almost exclusively been playing decks with Fires of Invention. Here are 5 things that you should consider when building a deck with Fires of Invention. [image] 1. Which colors to play The main versions of Fires of Invention that I have tried out so far are Jeskai and Temur. Jeskai lists usually play a lot of planeswalkers like Teferi and Narset and and is able to get value in the early game using them. I have found planeswalkers aren’t at their best in a Fires strategy because of the limited amount of spells you can play to protect them, but I think they are some of the better options out there for Fires.

Typically the appeal of cheap cards is that you can play them in the early turns, but if you’re not playing against a red deck then casting this early is asking for trouble. For this reason I suspect there won’t be a lot of maindeck Melees, but the card is a slam-dunk sideboard card. Unfortunately planeswalkers have a billion loyalty these days, enough to survive a Melee, which makes it a fair bit worse than Chandra’s Defeat, but utility is utility. When the hate cards are this efficient, you can bet they’ll definitely see play. 7: Embercleave [image] This one is a bit of a longer shot. I’m not entirely sure this will end up being good, but it is a lot of damage for potentially not that much mana. Double-strike and trample as a combat trick means your opponent is in for a world of hurt if you put this on, say, a...
