This primer is an update from the 2016 one and will still go over the following: With solid matchups against a lot of popular decks, Burn is a fantastic choice for those who are getting into legacy and can't afford the expensive cards in other lists, and a choice that you shouldn't be ashamed to take to a large tournament either. Not only that, but it is fun to play - Legacy Burn more so than Modern Burn, which more people are familiar with. While often looked down upon as a less competitive, budget first deck, Burn has a very long history of being a solid proactive choice, and some new releases have allowed Burn to make a resurgence and become competitive again. With dual lands, other reserved list cards, and even some non-reserved cards going for upwards of $100 (though hopefully Eternal Masters can change that), a Legacy deck can cost a huge amount, not to mention the supply problems caused by the reserved list.īut what if there was a Legacy deck that is competitive, fun, easy to learn, and best of all requires no dual lands or insanely expensive cards? I'd like to tell you that there is indeed a deck like that - mono red Burn. One of the biggest barriers to entry in Legacy is the high price of so many decks.

I go into sideboarding more on my website and hope to upload videos with quality games of my winning and losing to each of these match ups so people can see how games play out. You can find the original 2016 post here: Most of the changes were the matchup and deck details.

A lot of the intro will be the same with some added history.

I think it needed some update since it been 2 years old and sensei’s divining top was banned since this warping the meta. Shout out to u/ u/MySafeWordIsReddit who first made this primer.
