Information

Modified version of Ramp2Win (Gauntlet Grinder) from MaxiXVI.

Changes

+4 Devotee of the Sands instead of Talir's Favored. More ramp, bigger body, and the shift will protect it for 3 turns.

+4 Lunar Magus instead of Javan, the Steel Crest. It gives you +1 card draw +4 life, and because of the 4 health it won't get torched, also it will help stabilize the board against aggro. What about Javans draw mechanic? I found it too slow and benefical only late game when I already had Grodov's Burden, which works better with the bigger units i added to the list anyways.

+4 Ixtol, Champion of Grodov instead of Copper Conduit The main reason why i LOVE this card is the power engine it provides. With Worldbearer Behemoth this 2 will suck out every power card from the deck in no time, leaving behind only the good stuff.

+1 Worldbearer Behemoth -1 Desert Alchemist I just needed a 4th copy of this thicc boi.

+3 Time Sketch I had no game when i missed a turn because i had to play it depleted, so why not. It can be useful while you are waiting for a market card to get Grodov's Burden and you are flooded. Otherwise don't waste power for the amplify.

In the market i swapped Touvon, Skybreak Giant to Infinite Hourglass to hard counter the Chilling Touch and Feln Control decks.

Hi, I'm glad it worked! This deck looks really strong, you made some nice changes (and they are well explained). I especially like Devotee of the Sands and Infinite Hourglass, although I'm not sure with Lunar Magus - it's a good blocker, but I don't like the opponent drawing more cards. It's great to come up with your own version while having fun (and earning gold =p ).

Yes Lunar Magus can be a two edged sword but this deck is more valuable than any other deck the AI has, and because of this it's more beneficial for you to draw extra cards than your opponent. This card saved me many times by drawing an extra power card on the next turn so i could play Sandstorm or getting the 3rd influence to play Behemoth. Or having 2 magus out and healing back 8 health coming back to over 10 healt, so they could not face burn me to death while i already won on board.
Your point is valid, it can be problematic during bossfights when they go wih their tuned decks. But you can always cut them out for the last round, though i never did it and I only lost against Double Damage and maybe one time against a Charge deck.

Sounds better than I thought, not bad for Lunar Magus. Sudden Death Boss is sometimes impossible to beat (double damage Infernus in T1? You lose), so don't worry.
