Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
Flowstone Slide best plays with creatures that
have a high toughness. White creatures have a high toughness. A set was
recently released with fun Red/White cards to toss in. As much as I
don't want to continue to build Red/White decks control or combo decks
(seems like every fourth deck I build these days is Red/White control),
I have to go where the cards take me. How can I say no?
In order to play the Slide, I need lots of mana… And that's where the
Signets and Dynamos come in. Since I have to play a lot of mana anyways,
I figured that I should take advantage of the opportunity run some other
X spells, including the ubiquitous Fireball and the newly-printed
Brightflame.
“Doesn't Brightflame suck?” you ask.
It probably does, but I want to find out for sure. This is a perfect
time to experiment with a card that could be quite powerful or could be
utter chaff. It's a deck with both colors in large amounts and a
significant amount of artifact mana to boot. There is no better time, so
try out your Brightflames today!
In the attackers' corner, we have Wildfire Emissary – and the new
Emissary in the form of Sunhome Enforcer. Keep your eye on Enforcer,
because I've started putting him in a lot of my decklists. Each of these
creatures features a nice wide butt to survive small Floods, while also
having pumpable front ends as well.
In the defenders' corner, we have Tormented Angel and Kami of Old Stone.
Both are cheap and have high defenses. The Angel gives us a nice aerial
defense, like a SAM Battery. After casting a Slide, both become
significant threats for the turn and can swing for a nice bit of damage.
I have my ever-standard Scroll Rack to give the deck a way of sifting
through cards. Lastly, I tossed in a full set of Lightning Helixes in
order to give us some cheap removal options for the early game.
Ironically, now that I'm done, I suddenly lit upon a nice mono-Red way
of using the Slide with high defense creatures. Take a look at Ydwen
Efreet – that'd be great in a deck like this! It's a strong possibility
for future builds of a mono-Red nature.
