Volibear should be G/R  red is the color of lightning.   I like that this guy is taking teh time to make these but he has an obsession with U and B…. Plus Volibear doesn’t have a taunt. 
RRG,T: Deal 2 damage to target creature.  If that creature is still in play it fights target creature you control.  

Done

Alistar

the regenerate shouldn’t be a tap.

he should have W: Remove alistar and target opposing creature from combat. 

All he needs is a flicker effect and he’d be perfect.

B/U mill deck that can still potentially hit hard. 2x Artful Dodge2x Belltower Sphinx3x Blind Zealot1x Dimir Cutpurse2x Doom Blade2x Drowned Catacomb1x Frozen AEther1x Increasing Confusion2x Invisible Stalker11x Island3x Jace's Erasure4x Mindcrank1x Neurok Invisimancer2x Niblis of the Breath1x Soul Seizer8x Swamp2x Tandem Lookout3x Thought Scour2x Tormented Soul4x Trepanation Blade2x Unsummon2x Wall of Frost

interesting.  since this is modern, I am going to change it up just a bit.   I like the fact that you are not relying on one win condition because with mill you can’t count on it.  

-2 Niblis of Breath

+2 Undead Alchemist  

His ability triggers off any mill not just zombie mill.  so your trepanation blades, erasures, and thought scours will be that much more beneficial.  

-4 mind crank

Mindcrank

+4 Mind funeral

Mind Funeral

you already have a slew of 2 drops in the deck, (or multiple 1 drops)

This card will at minimum make them lose 4 lands….but honestly who top decks for lands in a row…yeah exactly.  

I would also try to add some draw into this deck, most likely taking out the walls and a trep blade for something like remand or telling time.  

Keep submitting!

Kayle has been my champ as of late.  I stumbled on this, and while i personally use her Judgement skin; I love her all the same.

On a scale of 1 to a billion

how ready are you for mirrodin and the titans to rotate?

What's your thoughts/opinions on the new duel deck that was leaked recently of Izzet vs. Golgari? Do you think Niv-Mizzet will be the foil along with the new guy Lich Lord Jarrod? And if so do you think it will be the Niv-Mizzet we all know, or a newer version of him? And what do you think Niv-Mizzet(if it is new) and Jarrod will do for abilities cmc power/toughness etc.

Well I think it comes as a great headway into the Return to Ravnica.  Typically in a duel deck we have seen in the past cards from a future expansion and that card is a common.  

I believe that Niv will be the izzet rare in his original version.

I believe that the Gorgons will be the Golgari rare, even though they did technically story wise die.

I could see the previews for the next block being something like:

Mizzets’s broodling (a smaller dragon which will feature one of the block mechanics.)

And maybe something like Jarrod’s Kudzu, which has reach and also a block mechanic.

They like to keep the decks as even as possible so the preview won’t be an untested bomb. 

None the less i think they will be exciting decks!

Keep the discussion topics coming!

Gisela: General or addition to a Bryon Stoutarm deck?

Great question!

Gisela, Blade of Goldnight

She is a force, no doubt.  When she hits the field she will be tough to kill and tough to be on the opposite side of.  The problem with her is that mana cost.  if she dies once she goes from 7 to 9 mana. So I would personally add her to the Stoutarm smashers but not give her the QB position.

plus if she is in the grave as opposed to the side. you can res her back easier with those types of effects.
