i think you drop the terminate for another pact.

[Kavu_Player]

I would also drop the terminate, and add another pact... It looks pretty good otherwise.

[Skizzik]

This is what I'd use:

4 Recoil
4 Terminate
4 Shadowmage Infiltrator
4 Counterspell
4 Undermine
4 Fact or Fiction
4 Fire/Ice
4 Flametoungue Kavu
2 Urza's Rage
1 Yawgmoth's Agenda

1 Crosis, the Purgerer

7 Island
4 Salt Marsh
4 Sulfurous Springs
3 Swamp
3 Mountain
2 Shivan Reef
1 Crosis's Catacombs

[Lingofan]

I think 4 Shivan Reefs are necessary.

the deck needs more card drawing besides finkel/fof.
the pacts should stay ;)

[Kavu_Player]

good point renmaster... what else is there besides pact?

[Lingofan]

for card drawing ???

some good cards:

- opt
- sleight of hand
- standstill ??? nah.... :D

[barrintheflip]

how about prophetic bolt?

[Lingofan]

prophetic bolt was good in IBC.
it might however be too slow for type 2.....
I think Opt would be the best :)

[Kavu_Player]

OPT is good... p.bolt is too slow, I agree. what can we take out??? maybe for 2 terminate??? (that goes against what I said earlier...)

[barrintheflip]

then what about jilt or repulse. Jilt is good as double removal and repulse is a good cantrip

[Kavu_Player]

Jilt is good for Sideboard... but I am not sure about repulse... what do you guys think???

[barrintheflip]

well jilt is a two for one card advantage, and repulse replaces itself. That is also card advantage.

[Lingofan]

Repulse is definately better ;)

from the original deck take out recoils and terminate and add 4 opt :)

[barrintheflip]

okay then what about the pacts?
