I would add a full set of Moxen plus Black Lotus and Sol Ring.

Dumb nigger wanting to add t1 "bling" to the deck although the deck is ext thinking he is soo fucking funny, no hope for that race... About the deck i would cut elves of deep shadow and add 2 more cabal therapies, I also realy dont like chrome mox in that deck doesnt seem its worth the -1 card advantage. Also isnt eternal witness a rock staple?

if im not mistaken that was one of the winning decks on the ptq last week md.So no comment is a perfect deck in the aggro way.Of course the sideboard is optimal because extirpate is good but not as good as u might think tormods crypt or something like that might solve the decks problem better

Ignorance and bigotry aside: I would say cut the mox. Doesn’t really fit in the deck to well imo. More cabal therapies sounds decent, smother should be considered, I also really like 4 flows main. The are be backbone of the deck and make some decks just scoop if played on 2nd turn. I really just don’t see why people don’t play 4 main.

toguppy: Also its pretty hard to get a moxen to produce red, considering the only red card in the deck is Flow.

like jheezy said, elfs are much better then mox in the deck. They can produce a color other then the color it cost to cast them and they are expendable creatures for therapies. It seems like the same argument could be raised about the effectiveness of adding more therapies at the cost of elves.

Plus if you wanna do the math, your chances increase to play 2nd turn flow by adding a 4th flow in place of a mox.

"And money is definatly NOT and issue!"

Maybe not, but your English sure is. Why not take some of the endless money you seem to have and spend a little on an English tutor? At least that way, you won't look so stupid when you write.

This from assault rifle Pigglyjuff! ^^ j/p

The deck..post revision. Not bad, but seriously, -mox, +Elf of DS +land

I've tested 3 diff builds of flow rock, and I've tested them a shitload. Mox is barely ever worth it without a turn 1 bob, and even that requires a bit of luck or proper mana fixings in hand.

Never give up card advantage in aggro without a very good reason, such as skipping your 2CC slot in MGA.

Edit: I see five Destructive Flow by the way.
