I think I finally crafted this to fend off the quick attack of many decks in this format, plus have the balance to last late game. The SB is a tad off because I just put pyroclasms MD over lightning bolts. So 3 fallouts in SB may be iffy. Thought Hemorrhage is to draw out ranger of eos vs boros bushwacker, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it should be replaced by ajani vengeant. The Captured Sunlight may be what does it for this deck. Turn 4 I gain 4 life, which should be enough to last for a bit, plus if you look at 1-3 drops it is all removal (incl blightning more or less). It performs much better than Ajani in the MD

p.s. I miss WoG, DoJ just doesn't do what it should all the time

Fair enough...but I did have it SBed in vs me with someone playing Jund. A bit unorthodox, but if it happens it causes headaches

Actually it can't kill Cudgel Troll as well. Sure, it doesn't appear on any Tier deck at the moment, but just give him time (or a new deck to appear in) for people to notice that only a Terminate or Path to Exile can end his havoc (two Disfigures do not count!). Mr. Green

You should use Jund Charm or Volcanic Fallout instead of pyroclasm incase your Bituminous Blast cascades into it when its your opponents turn. Plus Jund Charm has more options than Pyroclasm.

Cascade doesn't care if the spell is an instant, sorcery, or creature. It may be cast if it is flipped up. And anyways, Pyroclasm is good because it is much much easier to cast than those other two...only 1R, as opposed to 1RR or BRG. When playing vs vampires or boros bushwacker it is very nice to clear the board turn two rather than turn 3 or 4.
