Strategy
Birgi, God of Storytelling // Harnfel, Horn of Bounty leads a deck built from the cards players most often run with it, pointing repeated damage at players. The list holds 13 ramp pieces, 9 pieces of targeted interaction, 2 board wipes and 9 sources of card draw, at an average mana value of 2.12.
Early: Use the early turns on mana. Grinning Ignus and the rest of the 13 ramp pieces are what let the deck cast Birgi, God of Storytelling // Harnfel, Horn of Bounty on curve and keep casting after it.
Mid: Once the commander is down, the deck wants to be doing two things at once: advancing its own board and answering everyone else's. Grapeshot is the first answer you will usually reach for, and Vindictive Flamestoker keeps the hand full while you do it.
Late: Hold Ashling, Flame Dancer for the turn the table gets ahead of you - with 2 in the deck you can afford to use one early and still have an answer later. At 2.12 average mana value the top end is cheap, so expect to deploy several spells a turn.
Win conditions: Wins by pointing damage at players until they run out of life.
