Like I said though, Spear in this deck would mainly be to either stop midrange/aggro from attacking you unless they want to lose a guy, or to occasionally be useful as a +1 for Stormbreath to dodge Mortars (or to make Reckoner more threatening). I'd at least try out one over a Heliod.
Maybe run that Ratchet Bomb MB over Helix (switch the two)?
Flare is okay, I don't like Phoenix in this deck though.
Thoughts on Hammer? 1-2 Last Breath for the monoU match? [edit] You may have 4 Chained, and Anger kills everything non-Master, but I like running at least one extra silver-bullet in the SB. Mono U is more popular in my area depending on the week though.
If you don't know how to lie, then how do you know when you're being lied to?
No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.
I dont know why you would ever run wretched bomb main deck? That card is just very bad except in all but the most narrow situations. IT DOESNT EVEN ANSWER PACKRAT FOR GODS SAKES.
I think the idea is that Ratchet Bomb usually just deals with 0 cmc tokens and with Ratchet Bomb it deals with them after 3 turns of being on the field
Drafted after work tonight. Went really deep. Favorite Theros deck I've drafted:

tbf i'd welcome a secondary market crash on the principle that I hate the high dollar entry point into certain formats
I get the points made against it that certain retailers couldn't survive if the secondary market crashed, and it's a valid point. But perhaps it's a good thing.
But seriously, I'm having a hard time understanding how the counterfeiters intended to make any money off their operation if they were selling the cards just slightly above cost (even if they were selling in bulk). If people are willing to pay $100 for one Polluted Delta, you don't turn around and sell them 1000 Polluted Deltas for $10. Not only is it leaving rent on the table, it's rushing the market towards a state where all you
can
do is sell at cost.
Smart counterfeiters (which they appeared to be before this incident) want the same thing Wizards wants: a healthy market from which to skim a steady stream of profits. Their participation would alleviate supply shocks caused by the fact that Wizards rarely supplies cards in quantities relative to their demand (good) and generally cut into profits elsewhere in the Magic world (bad, if you believe the sob story about tanking LGSs and starving R&D). I suspect in this case, they knew the jig was up and tried to dump their stock, either to squeeze the last few pennies out of the operation or just out of spite.

Um. Some people play in tournaments.
