Welcome to Gaia! ::

well i'll be happy to come to you for help then, just as long as you don't put me down for it. realize that i don't know a lot and don't be surprised if i ask the same question a couple times because i forgot or ask a question that you might feel is slightly stupid but that i have no clue about. if you don't do this then there's nothing to worry about. as long we we are respectful to each other i will have no problem coming to you for help.

I would have to say either Fireblast or Lightning Bolt.

Lightning Bolt: It is, pound for pound, the most efficient burn spell ever devised. Lightning Bolt can kill 75% of the creatures in magic, at instant speed, nuff said.

Fireblast: It has long replaced Fireball as the ultimate red finisher, mainly due to it's alternate casting cost. Look at almost any red deck from when Visions was legal, and you'll see 2-4 fireblasts in almost every decklist. How many people have been at 8 life and heard "Double Fireblast, win, good game" over the years? lol.

Don't think so..you're just being faced with the truth!

that, and I named Lightning bolt as one of the 5 best cards in magic in that one post. Same reasons, of course. biggrin

I never run Lightning bolt maindeck when I play type 1. I just use Firebolt, against things like other Fish decks or Goblin Welder. Side in lightning bolts against Workshop and Metalworker.

I normally play Fish in type 1, but I sometimes play Bazaar Madness (mono-green version). all I need are some Bazaar of Baghdads, so I don't have to proxy them.

yeah, U/R fish. It's a deck that was built to combat Workshop and Stax. Lots of little creatures, light countermagic, pretty cheap to build.

Also, I've been working on a R/G Bazaar build, but I'm thinking that Skullclamp might be the better option. Perhaps both! biggrin

I love Firecat Blitz and I've been trying to base a very good deck around it. It's kinda hard, but it's not impossible! Anybody got any tips for me with Firecat Blitz?

For me the best burn spell, hmm its hard to think and choose one because as a red player using the "Sligh" strategy through the years... I,ve been using the burn usuallt in combination instead of being used alone. Maybe I have to name a few... Perhaps lightning bolt is pound for pound because of its cost and damage dealing ratio, the other is Hammer of Bogardan, for me its good since you can recurse it during the late game and its what I use because I've had a hard time finding cursed scrolls here in my area, Fireblast! Wow! When I first saw the card I fell in love with it in an instant! If I don't use two fire blasts to kill players, I either use the bolt fire blast combo or the umm oh yeah.. I almost forgot to mention a classic... Goblin Grenade. Hehehe. Incinerate is good too preventing critters from regenerating. Well I've stopped playing for a while and I'm thinking of coming back in the game. The players in my area are not playing with me anymore because of my Type 1 environment cards. And when I come back, of course I'm very predictable... I'll use RED again! rofl Hahaha. Pretty sure the players in my area are going to ready their COP red. sweatdrop
