Description of deck by Frank Karsten
@ www.wizards.com
(quoted):
I have featured this deck before, but that has
been so long ago that I figured showing a more recent Aggro Loam list
would be nice, especially now that the deck is rising in popularity.
Aggro Loam still abuses the amazing synergy between Life from the Loam
and cycling lands. The deck runs 3 Life from the Loam and 3 Burning Wish
to get access to the deck-defining sorcery. Aggro Loam also has an aggro
element with Terravore and friends. The fast creatures can deal a lot of
damage quickly, at which point the Seismic Assault can finish it. The
best matchups are Rock variants and Boros Deck Wins, and the worst
matchup is Scepter/Chant, as the deck has no out to Orim's Chant
imprinted on Isochron Scepter before board.
I have also seen versions with Wall of Roots, Vinelasher
Kudzu, and Devastating Dreams maindeck instead of Werebear, Wild Mongrel,
and Firebolt. According to the_bestdude, who gave me the above list, that
version is not as good versus combo decks and control decks, although it
may be good in a metagame full of aggro decks. He found Devastating Dreams
risky and situational – better suited as a Burning Wish target. |
