Glad you are able to make your content! Stay safe! I have a question, is there a reason to play Shadow Rift over Distortion Strike? I feel like Distortion Strike is strictly better?
btw the order of casting Relic's Roar/Embiggen do matter. If you cast Embiggen first and let it resolve, you won't hit lethal after casting RR. Relic's Roar needs to resolve first before casting Embiggen.
Lovely video, infect is my favourite archetype. If i could just nit-pick a little, infect is more of a combo deck, not a tempo deck. It can be, but against decks with little removal. In a couple of instances you played your creatures without the mana to protect them, while waiting a turn would have changed nothing. Just my 2 cents :)

When I heard about the fires over there, I thought to myself "dang, I hope Deluxe is okay," and I'm happy to see that's the case.
Golly what a channel
Glad y'all are safe from the fires.
Great, love it! I reeeeeally like to run Seal Of Strength in infect since is like a "turn one pump" but don't know if works well in the Simic version.
seal is great card as it is sort-of uncounterable once set out...but a 3/3 boost isn't much these days :)

as an agro card- you are correct, but MTG is messy...and casting shadow on an opponents critter grants us a card at instant speed.
@ Makes sense! Thanks for the video and for your response!

swear I did it the other night, thought the same, and it still worked, but yes - I see it your way, better to be safe and correct playing relic FIRST!

Only did that with multiple critters in hand...playing them in order of importance to eat avail.removal.
@PAUPERGANDA thank you for answering. Legitimate way to play it, nothing wrong with it. Just an input :)
hydroblast would be a good sideboard card
the ap.blessings do the job, and double duty as evasion as well :)
Why are we running artifact lands as opposed to basics?
you can gain 4 life with N.Claim games 2/3 - main reason - you can relic your own artifact if you only have an infect guy out and an edict hits.
@ Oh that’s right. I had only thought about doing this with the petal, but that’s genius.
