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!

I'll go ahead & propose [[Jaya Ballard, Task Mage]]. Her abilities do not directly connect to [[Tormenting Voice]], but because they all require you to discard a card, the deck I built ends up with a lot of card draw for a Mono Red deck. Link below, might help you find similar cards you like.

As a second option, have you looked at [[Immodane, the Pyrohammer]]? Much faster deck for when you want a quicker game. Just remove the [[Blood Moon]] if you want to run in bracket 3.

    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.
