although chrome mox helps some, I have found that I don't want to remove anything in my hand but lands as everything else is essential to keep it going.
Of course you could remove it then wish for it.
I think the most usefull thing to wish for with burning wish is your removed insideous dreams to get back more of your draw/untap spells by discarding lands.
BTW, counters?
you only really need one to keep them from countering your kill
it seems to me though that the lotus version can't live without a lotus where the land enchant versions can survive the lose of one particular enchantment (not that anyone would cranial for wild growth or the like), the lotus version is vunerable to instant removal (aka, shatter) where there is no instant LD that targets basic lands (that I know of)
The heartbeat version suffers kind of the same fate but it can live without heartbeat of spring and just have an extreamly hard time.
I'll try them anyway.
oh yeah, and i'm thinking about running burning wish and one desire in the board to help make sure you get one.
hmm...you say reflection isn't needed, just so you know, sometimes it is the only thing keeping the deck going, btw, how many spells are standard before a desire cause mine gets 6+ before popping a desire, I have been able to get 10 before a desire before.
I have found that it is really fun if they have removed your wishes to deck them with trade secrets...its possible with the dreams and reclaims in the deck, its fun to watch them repeat secrets a few times and then moan when you recur them 15+ times (meanwhile your deck is sitting on empty).
I havn't tried the heartbeat route but I would think it would take more time to get off than others because you have to get 3+ lands in play to have enough mana to keep it up.
my version can go off t3 (have not managed a t2 win yet, still working on that) the dreams/reclaims help alot though.
but, seeing as I have almost nothing else to do I should be able to keep it up.
that I will do, as well as plan what to do.
you say australia is suffering?
i'll join that then...*salutes*
good-day!
I also agree that mox is bad for the deck because you have to get rid of a card you would otherwise need.
this is the version i'm going to goldfish a little later.
