Ok, you've all probably heard of the fires deck, a deck that utilizes Fires of Yavimaya and mana excelaration to get out fast fatties with haste. Well, this deck runs somewhat the same way. Except for one minor detail. The Ęther Rift makes your opponent put a fettie into play, or loose 5 life. That accumulates over about 3 turns. Other than that, you should know why the stuff is in there. The howling mines are there to get more fatties in your hand. The mana base might be a little shaky, but I'll leave that up to you. You can replace any of the fatties that you don't have with fatties that you do. I just put what I have in because I think they're cool. Other than that, this deck plays like any other fires deck. Once you get the rift in play though, only play the creatures that accelarate your mana, or the ones with kickers.
