Yeah, DJ, amazing deck.

Turn 4, Titanic Growth on my lone Kiln Fiend, Double Shock on my own Kiln Fiend. 14/2 turn 4. lol

Why wouldn't you shock their face? Am I missing something?

Not sure if this has been mentioned here before, but this seems like a pretty dirty trick a Gruul deck could pull.

1) Attack with all.
2) Immediately cast Fog.
3) Pause the game, then unpause and pause again, acting confused like you misclicked.
4) Opponent lets all your creatures through as there's no point wasting time blocking.
5) You Skullcrack them in the face.
6) Damage is no longer prevented, all your creatures smack them in the face and kill them!

Very convoluted, but on the small chance you run both, this may be worth doing. I can't see anyone seeing it coming.

Deck: Smash Through
...
I've been wanting a deck that was essentially built around unblockable creatures and gave this endeavor to shadocran who came up with what looked like a pretty good start. after play testing a bit i decided to go strictly gruul for a bit more consistency and i have been enjoying it alot.

-The Premise is simple, buff your unblockables and swing in for huge hits.
-Cultivates are there for mana ramp for your bigger spells.
-Timberland Guides are perfect as a t2 or 3 drop to buff your wandering wolfs or Spire Tracers. Do not use them on your Howlgeists if you have the oppurtunity. you would only be hurting your use of his undying.
-Angers are there to stall the early game if they establish to big of a board against you and Ground Assaults Are there for late game creatures if you have established the board in your favor. Both can be used in conjunction with Inferno fist for Typical removal until you can get your howlgeists and pelakkas out. Most of the time the game is over before you need fatties though.
-Hunter's Prowess shines here with your unblockables and/or pelakkas. I have yet to have Wrecking ogre used as a body as his Bloodrush is mainly what he is here for and if hes on the table then you most likely losing or doing it wrong.

Thanks for checking it out. It has been a joy playing and any suggestions would be welcome.

I didn't initially understand 'bloodrush' and presumed it was an activatable ability after Wrecking Ogre landed, and one I had never used.

Anyway, after your comments I then figured out it can be cast directly from the hand as an enchantment during combat turn

That would make the card a million times stronger.



It's a instant I think. And can be played any time.

Golden is right, it works like an Instant, not an Enchantment. You cast it at instant speed on a critter to give it +3+3 and DS and the Wrecking Ogre goes to the GY from your hand.

You use it on your biggest unblocked creature after blockers have been declared

Exactly. That is the perfect strategy for it.

Glad I fully understand the card now, it's made both the Gruul decks I've been running even stronger.

To supplement: it is not an instant spell, it's an activated ability of a card in your hand, at instant speed. The difference is, like cycling, it cannot be counterspelled by Negate or Dissolve. And there are no effects in the game that can counter an ability outside of removing the target. This can make it very potent against blue holding back a counterspell.
