[KHM] Burning-Rune Demon
-
It's a Rune Scared Demon for 1 less mana but instead of a tutor it's a mini fact or fiction. I wonder if there are situations where instead of just getting timewalk I could set up some graveyard shenanigans that would pay off better with this thing.
Being 1 easier to cast is a thing too, but it feels very corner case considering you are not hard casting it in oath 99% of the time.
-
I think Rune Scar is better because you just get Time Walk.
With this guy your Time Walk costs 5 mana, assuming you get Will + Walk.
Though I suppose if you get Noxious Revival + Walk it’s exactly the same as Rune Scar with -1 net card
-
Could we do a burning oath idea where it gets something like past in flames and walk to set up the combo with the second run?
-
You could play this as your only creature and get past in flames and lotus, then (hopefully) mill a lot and cast your graveyard.

Recent oath lists playing rune-scarred demon like this one have mostly been using it to set up a kill using underworld breach. Getting two pieces of the combo seems pretty good and can be fairly resilient letting you make a pile from breach, lotus, brain freeze or sevinne's reclamation depending on what you need/what you milled over with oath.
