Modern MtG — Izzet Phoenixes vs. Obliterator Devotion
Channel: T1GlistenerElf
Date: 2020-10-08

This is how I pilot a deck that I've never played before: slowly and methodically, trying my best to see the logic in the lines in the strategy. I apologize for taking some time, but I hope that you enjoy watching the gerbil wheels turn. If nothing else, you get to see me draw all of the basic lands in existence. Islands and Mountains galore!

I don't have the decklist for the Izzet Phoenix deck, but I do have one for the Obliterator Devotion deck that I let James borrow:
Creatures (20)
4 Fulminator Mage
4 Gatekeeper of Malakir
4 Gray Merchant of Asphodel
4 Pack Rat
4 Phyrexian Obliterator
Enchantment (1)
1 Phyrexian Arena
Instants (4)
4 Fatal Push
Planeswalkers (5)
4 Liliana, the Last Hope
1 Liliana of the Veil
Sorceries (8)
4 Inquisition of Kozilek
4 Thoughtseize
Lands (22)
22 Snow-Covered Swamp (which should be 16 and one of each black fetchland plus a Witch's Cottage and a Leechridden Swamp)
Sideboard (15)
1 Bitterblossom
1 Damnation
2 Flaying Tendrils
4 Gifted Aetherborn
4 Liliana's Triumph
1 Nihil Spellbomb
2 Vampire Hexmage (now replaced with Nighthawk Scavenger)
