Deck Primer / Description
Named for its key piece, Runaway Steam-Kin, this is a fast-paced deck that can absolutely RUN AWAY with the game. Hahaha, see what I did there? :p
If you don't have Light Up the Stage, an alternative card advantage engine is The Flame of Keld. Another option is Risk Factor.
Feel free to tailor the deck to your personal preference by adding or removing cards of your choice, based on what your opponents bring against you. Below is a list of other cards that you may want to consider; however, some of them may push the deck's price to over $50 USD:
Abrade
Ash Zealot
Bonecrusher Giant
Chandra, Fire Artisan
Chandra's Pyrohelix
Chandra's Spitfire
Electrostatic Field
Ember Hauler
Embercleave
Experimental Frenzy
Fervent Champion
Fiery Cannonade
Fight with Fire
Flame Sweep
Fry
Ghitu Lavarunner
Glorybringer
Goblin Cratermaker
Guttersnipe
Impetuous Sunchaser
Incendiary Flow
Legion Loyalist
Rimrock Knight
Scorch Spitter
Sweltering Suns
Torbran, Thane of Red Fell
Wizard's Lightning
When making your selections, make sure you don't totally fill the deck with cards that cost 3 mana or more. Although it's tempting to have a deck that's stacked with big, imposing threats, you leave yourself in a vulnerable position if you don't manage to present a threat in your early turns. You get the most benefit from Runaway Steamkin if you're able to cast multiple spells in a turn, which is why the sample deck list contains a lot of 1- and 2-mana creatures.
