Bombshells from the Sky



Block Constructed (Ravnica)



So it turns out that Ravnica block actually has all the cards needed to make a win via Bronze Bombshell possible - you get 3 Bronze Bombshells on the fields and donate them all via Sky Swallower to instantly kill your opponent for 21 damage. To increase the likelihood of this happening, we run 4x Mizzium Transreliquat to function as additional copies of it (or just to copy Izzet Signet in a pinch). If we can't get the magical 21 damage, we can still inflict 7-14 damage and use our burn cards to try and burn the opponent out while swinging with our Sky Swallower. Part of the benefit of running 4x Seal of Fire is that we can effectively 'bank' increments of 2 damage this way and throw it all at the opponent on turn 5-7 to push them into the kill range if we don't have enough Bronze Bombshells to do the job. In the event we somehow can't assemble the combo at all or get hit by something like Memoricide or Surgical Extraction, we can still play as a more traditional control deck that attempts to counter or remove all opposition until we can land a big creature to swing in and defeat our opponent.
