this Deck ive been working on for a couple days now. It's one of the first decks i've built before and I'm trying to build it on a low budget.

Artifacts
4x Mind Stone
2x Whispersilk Cloak
Creatures
4x Mulldrifter
3x Guile
3x Hostility
4x Flamekin Harbinger
Land
10x Mountain
10x Island
Planeswalkers
3x Chandra Nalaar
3x Jace Beleren
Spells
4x Boomerang
4x Broken Ambitions
4x Cancel
3x Flame Javelin
3x Incinerate
3x Magma Spray

I'm trying to base my creatures around getting out hostility then burning to get the tokens from it as well as guile to redirect spells for my own use. jace for card drawing and the mill when time comes and chandra for the burns.

any help would be great!

After further test playing with the previous build, I've found this a better option:


Artifacts
4x Mind Stone
Creatures
4x Mulldrifter
2x Guile
2x Hostility
4x Flamekin Harbinger
Land
12x Mountain
12x Island
Planeswalkers
3x Chandra Nalaar
3x Jace Beleren
Spells
3x Boomerang
3x Broken Ambitions
3x Cancel
3x Incinerate
3x Volcanic Fallout
3x Tarfire

I have considered adding some plumeveils for defense, and maybe some ponders to increase the play speed but not sure. I'm also striving without the flamekins currently due to inability to find them.

any and all advice would be wonderful.

that looks like a pretty solid build to me but i was wondering, when you use hostilites ability to prevent damage, is it mandatory (meaning you would basically have to destroy your own hostility to actually do damage) or can you choose to do damage?
message me back,

I think that it looks pretty solid but the card that would be really good in this deck is Twincast, It goes well with all the other spells and if you're opponant plays cruel utimatium you can either copy it or counter it with guile in play.
I would take out chandra and out her in sb, I'd also do the same with whisper silk cloak and put in 4 twincasts (You can also twin cast burn) Then put in 1 jace so that you have 4
I hope this helps
