Hey everyone, I am looking for some mono red decks ideas around brecket 2 or 3. Just as a prompt, if you have some deck that plays heavy into "tormenting voice" efects I'm looking to play that lately.

Normally I tend to play the grindy game, but lately I am looking for something a tad faster for "the last game of the night".

Thank you!

Jaya Ballard itches my hipster scratch, will definitely take a look. Imodane is turbo kill on sight, isn't it? How have you managed that?

If anything, I encourage it. Keep in mind you don't play Imodane until you're about to win. So, kill on sight means instant speed removal. Which, at bracket 3+, your opponents ought to have. During the rule zero discussion, I remind everyone why she's kill on sight. If the pod's not comprehending or just not ready to play at that level, I put her away & play something else.

One my favorite games of all time was the one where all 3 opponents actually listened and each of them held up on a single target removal spell. We went around the table for 3 turns in a row with me doing 'the thing', only for one of them to stop me.

Sadly, there's far too many games where I win, then have to explain the math two more times.
