This is probably one of my favorite decks I have been toying around with, but I am having a bit of trouble vs the more aggressive RDW and Rakdos aggro decks even with 4x Huntmaster and 4x Thragtusk and also don't really know which role blue plays in the deck. Do I use syncopates and other counter magic, or more bounce oriented with cyclonic rifts, or go the tamiyo/jace planeswalker route. The decklist is a bit updated from this video (all the UW flash decks going around forced me to put in caverns and negates) but the core is still pretty much the same. Any advice is greatly appreciated! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S0TPK62NS4&list...

The problem with such a deck is that neither of the elements is particularly powerful by its self. For example, if you draw a peddler, it won't do much work without a staticaster, and if you draw a staticaster, it won't do much work without peddler. Given a lack of strong dig/tutoring in the format, such a deck isn't really a good idea unless you just want to screw around at FNM.

You can ask favors of me. I may or may not agree to your favor, depending on how big the favor is and how many catpoints you have.

You are devoting 8 card slots to cards that do very little on their own (unless you play against Zombies or something similar), without a way to fetch them out of your library.
Its also really fragile, with half the combo being a 1/1 creature.

Actually I have found that if I pair peddler with basically anything in the deck it becomes quite the powerhouse, even huntmaster tokens. Izzet Staticaster is VERY underrated right now. There are plenty of relevant targets in standard plus the card draw and control in this deck is all about stabilizing until either you get the combo or one of your finishers hits the board.

Haha this is a terrible idea. Quit whoring out your youtube channel on these forums, especially with **** decks like this.
Look man, that was unnecessary and rude. His deck is kinda subpar, but you should try to help him get better instead of being an ass.
