Hellraiser getting back Fable is kind of interesting. Since it’s a token, when it exiles itself for the third chapter, it can’t return (and even if it didn’t exile itself, tokens can’t transform anyway.)

I'm not sure what I'm missing but I don't see why the Fable Hellraiser brings back would be a token? Hellraiser just says "exile then cast".

I like the use of of the self sac lands! I missed that when I made my izzet deck version. I prefer Bitter Reunion over Thrill of Possibility because I think the possibility to give haste can be really strong. You can use it to copy the Hellraiser immediately after Fable flips and works well into planeswalkers and more controlling strategies.

Love Bitter Reunion, close call on which is better here since the extra card and instant speed are both relevant.

I am a newb, so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I advocate for playing decks that _you_ like to play. This deck is certainly strong enough to get Ws in the ranked queue My personal take is that the sweepers and burn alone position it pretty well since soldiers, tokens, and poison decks with either Rotpriest or go-wide strategies are popular in the meta. Add to that a pretty powerful end game and lots of big flyers and I think you should be able to have fun and be competitive. The fact that the Salvo answers Mondrak and Sheoldred is interesting too

@Xgya2000 Жыл бұрын
Probably not. The archetype is totally different. Hellraiser is meant for reanimator strategies. Most of the game-winning hits from Hellraiser (portal, sagas) are considered too slow for Izzet Phoenix to play, Arclight decks don't want clunky expensive cards just to keep as discard fodder. The most expensive non-creature card in Izzet Phoenix is Expressive Iteration (2 mana). Even Fable is considered too slow.
