Information

Overwhelm your opponent with buffed dudes. The charge units get much better with Strange Gladiator.
Very very fun to play. Extremely fast: can manage a gigantic board on turn 4 into a kill on turn 5.
FAQ:
Q: What happens if I get into a board stall situation and run out of cards?
A: You lose (unless the stars align and you get the perfect answer outta market or Demand Death).
Q: Why should I play it then?
A: Because most games are over before that scenario takes place.

I think market options could be much better but I don't know what card specifically to put there. Do you have ideas?
Comments are appreciated.

Edit: I used to run demand death as the top end but as fun as it was, it wasn't the best option and could end up a dead card.
I've subbed it for Thunder of Wings thanks to Stormborne's suggestion in the comments. I'll put the alternative options (some for main deck and some for market) in the sideboard. If you have more ideas I'd love to hear them.

Edit2: Removed the vanilla strangers and added some better stand alone cards.

Stormborne Eternal Version: 20.05.06
It’s becoming a situation where I see a deck posted by Watermelon and I have to try it. You make consistently fun, affordable and powerful brews man. Keep up the good work!
Watermelon Eternal Version: 20.05.06
Thank you :) I might try cutting demand death for a better option. Any ideas?
Stormborne Eternal Version: 20.05.06
I do find it to be the card I least want to draw or play in the deck... 😬 What is a good fire/Aggro deck without Thunder of Wings? Lol
Watermelon Eternal Version: 20.05.06
I agree. I really like the idea behind demand death and have tried to make it work so many times (failing miserably every time LOL) . I think thunder of wings is a solid option. Or maybe flash fire? Then you have to cut the time sigils and go for all 2 faction powers and fire sigils only (like the even xenan with Icaria)
Stormborne Eternal Version: 20.05.06
Yeah, that could work! A gut punch if they manage to remove your units or set a blockade up. Maybe two Flash Fire, and 2 Caleb’s Persuaders? There’s also the option to swap the merchant for salvo and Touch of Force..
Watermelon Eternal Version: 20.05.06
touch of force in the main seems a bit clunky to me, but the persuader seems great. Salvo market is interesting cause the deck could use the cheap removal but I also like the 2/3 charger. I'll add them to the sideboard.

Hi ! In my Praxis / Gauntlet markets I use to enjoy cards such as : Grodov's Burden, Striking Snake Formation, Gnash, Desert Prince, Purify, Calderan Gunsmith or Arcanum Monitor... All more or less useful in case of board stall, kinda.
Watermelon Eternal Version: 20.05.06
Thank you <3 I think most of these are more suited for a midrange kind of deck but purify and the gunsmith seem interesting
