no volts? wtf
I like fun, but competitive decks.  So I might not play what is optimal but they have normally been tested to have a 2/3 winrate.

Could not disagree more on the sideboard plan vs. wolf run .  When wolf run sees all your artifacts, they are gonna side in anchient grudge and naturalize, effetively neutering precursor golem .  Finally, is getting rid of all your win conditions (minus koth ) really all that good an idea for delver ?

What happened to the match-reports in the BoaB-series? I know, diffrent author and all that, but I realy liked to read the matchups and plays of the BoaB-decks. In the current form, it's just a deck in theory.

I don't really think that volts would work in this deck, as the deck is full mountains and more of a control deck then aggro.  So Slagstorm is basically strictly better then Volt Charge .

That could be but then my personal Big Red is a lot different than this one, to the point of Having Inferno Titans, Wurmcoils and over fun things.  Also I just like the added proliferate from the Volt Charge for my Koths, Magnets, Spheres, and Inkmoths.

To be fair, at that point, we're no longer BoaB.

As I've said in recent weeks, I'm happier with a janky deck that is actually budget. I think this one comes in around $50, which isn't bad at all. I would like to see some decks that use Innistrad block as the main pieces, because of rotation, and I think prices on AVR have settled enough to make that plausible. Same, I'd like to see the match reports again, JVL did a great job with them, but I think we've seen how many of the Wizards writers are over-taxed with other responsibilities.

This one looks like fun. Jacob, definitely have my thumbs up to expand and start working on it further for next time. Make some time to play and have a match report article.
