I would minimize the risk of Raptor hitting an undesirable card (such as searing blaze). I would replace all blazes for lightning helixes. Also, play with fire is not optimal, along with some sideboard cards. Consider cards such as roiling vortex, slickshot show-off, barbarian ring
Interesting thoughts. Start with the first comment why side out Goblin Guide against Tron? Searing Blaze can certainly be an awkard hit, but as can eidolon in a lot of circumstances. Play with Fire is certainly not ideal, but it served two roles in this build. Allowed us to lower the curve, and probably has the highest consistency/upside of remaining one mana spells. Burn has long suffered from being too clunky in a lot of draw glutted with two drops and or awkard 3's.
I think there have been a few lists that have tried, but most have settled on either traditional eidolon builds, shifted to the Boros Prowess or have Phlage in the mix .
When you knew what the opponent had in hand game 1, a thoughtseize and the only blocker they had was bowmaster. 100% should of started swinging at that point.
I do believe thought seize was a known card not from hand, but what was exiled from the pitched Grief mid game. There have been a few comments about the lines being bad in that game 1 so I will see if I can walk through a replay of that first game and explain my thoughts a bit more in depth. It was certainly a sloppy mess of a game.
Im just glad you won the game. I think the eidolon was left on your field a bit too long. There could have been a turn where you traded it in for bowmaster and drew a card to try a top deck a win. But was a weird game super abnormal play pattern not just your part.
In short game 1 was rough to bad. I have taken a look a few times at that game and if i can I am going to try to do a replay of it to breakdown my thoughts each turn cycle a bit better.
You should play 2 Phlage titan, the card is good. 6/6 body that lightning helix on attack. Yes is costs 4 but its huge. It seems really good to me anyways. Also i think Phlage and stifle could be a nice combo. Not sure if it works.
