While the red-white Boros deck has received the most attention as new aggro deck du jour, Almerick Li of Australia proved on Magic Game Day 2009 that good ole' Mountain can still get the job done. A bevy of burn spells like Lightning Bolt and Burst Lightning were backed up by aggressive creatures in the form of Goblin Guide and Hellspark Elemental. The strategy just goes to show while new sets come and go, sometimes you just can't beat a good burn spell.
