Blakeizen's Grixis Superfriends

Dragons and fire and lightning, Oh my!

Hello spellslingers! Blakeizen here with the weekly Saturday morning build for you! Check out the game play on YouTube- Blakeizen's Grixis Superfriends. The video showcases the deck in action, with some game play commentary for those interested in picking it up! This deck loves to run into Mono-Red on the ladder. I built this toying with last weeks Boros Naya build. Today I present you: Grixisbros. My favorite color combination! Alot of people have enjoyed my Grixis Amass Control list, and you should check that one out as well if you haven't already!

Sarkhan the Masterless shows up for two weeks in a row from my builds. This card is quickly becoming one of my favorite thing to play, since he attacks from multiple angles. Most of the time this guy feels like you're paying 5 mana for TWO 4/4 fliers, and midgame with Narset, Parter of Veils and Chandra, Fire Artisan on board, he might just finish off your opponent. I like to apply more pressure to my opponent and force them to make hard decisions, and this guy really sells me on getting that done.

Narset, Parter of Veils does what she always does. Locking down our Izzet Phoenix friends from drawing critical mass amount of cards, and fishing for things we could use in the process. Since we're playing Sarkhan the Masterless, we can still make use of her when she's sitting on that last 1 Loyalty counter! Consider not using her ability immediately when you're up against Izzet Phoenix and make them have to commit more than just 1 burn spell to dealing with her, and you'll have a good time. 

Chandra, Fire Artisan is kind of like playing extra Narset, Parter of Veils fused with a Search for Azcanta // Azcanta, the Sunken Ruin, with a time bomb built in. She let's you find extra lands, or playable cards each turn. Make sure you use her +1 Ability before you play any of the cards in your hand for the turn, lands included. If you ever get to use the -7 Ultimate just go ahead and press F to pay respects. It's unlikely that your opponent comes back from this, and it also helps with our 4/4 Flier beat down plan. We're attacking from a variaty of angles. 

Oh by the way, we also run burn spells. These can finish an opponent off if need be, but they are extremely helpful for keeping the board clear leading into our planeswalker / flying boi package. Shock and Spell Pierce put a stop to most anything Mono-Red wants to do turns 1 through 3, and Spell Pierce will catch those Light Up the Stage / Experimental Frenzy / Chandra, Fire Artisan slams. This also helps a lot versus Teferi, Time Raveler who we all know and love, amongst other notable turn 3 plays like Nissa, Who Shakes the World and Domri, Anarch of Bolas. Shock does double duty here slowing down the Llanowar Elves gameplan. 

Cry of the Carnarium and Ritual of Soot are here for extra coverage for those times where wants to throw very many 1 and 2 drop creatures at you. We're looking at you, White Weenie decks. These can be easily swapped around, play with the numbers on these based on the decks you're running into. If you're running into more Gruul Aggro, -1 Cry of the Carnarium for +1 Ritual of Soot and -3 Lightning Strike for +3 Lava Coil.
