I'm currently in a situation where I can't decide what is wrong and what is right. I like Firestorm, but I don't side it in very often, just for the matchups where it offers a large swing. Landing more than 1 land isn't consistent, especially when you consider that cards like Thalia & Wasteland exist. I don't like CF, 2 mana + CF in the grave for only a -2/-2 is too conditional for me. I've used it plenty of times after I bring back Icky's the first time - Firestorm is a board wipe, I lose my bridges, but we still get zombies. (Example) Elves & Infect often depend on certain cards to go stupid, so a well timed Firestorm is where I aim to be on t2 or 3. I'm just not often using Firestorm to kill more than one creature, so I'm a little lost.I use Firestorm depending on game state. Just trying to get a better feel for the strengths and weaknesses we are building on. Would you agree that Firestorm is better for clearing multiple creatures, but Crippling Fatigue is better for killing individual problem creatures (such as containment priest)? Is it down to metagame, or is Firestorm just miles ahead overall such that it's just wrong to be going with CF over Firestorm? Don't get me wrong: I'm using 4x Firestorm. I am probably too aggressive and not patient enough in sideboard games. So, you are not using LEDs or Breakthroughs until later so you can keep Firestorm in hand and clear the elves? Huh. Yeah, it would definitely be a swap with Firestorm as the removal option. Was your Firestorm countered? Whatever, you already threw in the bin dredgers and stuff. I don't like this kind of approach towards the deck makes more sense playing Manaless (together with the blue Shoal, since pitched to Narco stops RiP / Priest and pitched to GP stops Cage / Relic / DRS). " We need it right away, we need to be able to pay for it, and it has to be the right kind of to actually do anything". Your statement on Firestorm applies to Force of Will too. (It also gets mileage out of my pesky Narcomoebas, which really, really want me to hold them-much to my dismay.) The window for it is narrower than for the other cards, but we don't have to throw mana at it, and it stops everything but Leyline. This is almost certainly a product of confirmation bias, but I've been happiest just bringing in Force of Will for LED. We need it right away, we need to be able to pay for it, and it has to be the right kind of removal to actually do anything. My opinion might not be too popular, but I don't much like Firestorm or other removal generally.
