Hey guys. I have a u/w aggro homebrew I'm trying to make semi competitive in arena.
Right now my record against combo, B/x control, and sultai midrange is stellar. But I am getting rofl-stomped by anything playing a lot of burn spells. Mainly mono red and drakes.
So I was wondering, what are some cards in White and Blue that make red players groan? CMC not being an issue.
I've got a few spell pierce, baffling end, settle the wreckage, and one lyra dawnbringer, but I haven't had any luck with them. Either I don't draw enough spell pierces to save my dudes or myself, or I die before I can draw/cast my higher end stuff, like lyra. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your replies!
Generally, anything with Lifegain is Reds worst match-up.
Burn
Also how good is risk factor with Narset around?
Thank you
Burn
it's a solid list. Have you considered bringing rekindle back into the main board?
something like -1 Firebrand, +1 Rekindle
I'm Interested to know how it goes. Keep us posted!
