Abrupt Decay --> Wight of the Reliquary : fits into graveyard-theme, synergizes with cards like Bloodghast, Sticher's Supplier etc

Colour balancing: each colour has 54 cards, except green and black have 53 because they have two more hybrid cards: Deathrite Shaman, Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis
One more black cut needed, one more colourless cut needed

Watchlist:
Rift Bolt -->
Kytheon, Hero of Akros
Fiery Temper

this blog post includes explanation and exact swaps for changes from last two updates

General:
Searing Blaze --> Broadside Bombardiers : less dumb burn, more synergy, more power
Three Steps Ahead --> Forensic Gadgeteer
Cut Down --> Barrowgoyf : including new Lhurgoyfs
Hellrider --> Pyrogoyf : better FTK, more interaction, more exciting
Burst Lightning --> Gut, True Soul Zealot : less dumb burn, more synergy
Steel Seraph --> Ocelot Pride
Sail into the West --> Nadu, Winged Wisdom
Lose Focus --> Flash
Miscalculation --> Smirking Spelljacker
Terastodon --> Woodfall Primus : due to Flash inclusion

Graveyard and Madness Theme:
Generous Ent --> Golgari Grave-Troll
Invigorate --> Basking Rootwalla
Glacial Chasm --> Bazaar of Baghdad : Lands was finally powerful enough, so no Glacial Chasm needed
Death-Greeter's Champion --> Anje's Ravager
Legion Warboss --> Squee, Goblin Nabob] : Legion's Warboss is just a worse Goblin Rabblemaster, one of these effects is enough. Note: maybe Squee should be counted colourless?
Soul-Scar Mage --> Blazing Rootwalla
Concealing Curtain --> Stitcher's Supplier
The Scarab God --> Psychic Frog
Sentinel of the Nameless City --> Vengevine : Sentinel wasn't powerful enough
Phyrexian Fleshgorger --> Master of Death
Pick your Poison --> Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis
Vedalken Shackles --> Kitsa, Otterball Elite
Containment Construct --> will balance colours in next post
Scrapwork Mutt --> will balance colours in next post

Questions:
-- add discard theme with Squee, Goblin Nabob and Master of Death as return card effect, Basking Rootwalla, Blazing Rootwalla, Anje's Ravager as Madness Effects and Psychic Frog, Scrapwork Mutt?
-- add graveyard theme around Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis and Detective's Phoenix and Vengevine with Stitcher's Supplier and Satyr Wayfinder. Both themes go together quite well (think Survival of the Fittest chaning Vengevine to Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis to Basking Rootwalla). Also add Shifting Woodland as a Pseudo-Instant-Reanimator Spell?
-- remove five Shocklands for Mirage Fetchlands (Flood Plain Cycle)? Or remove five Surveillands?
-- random cards to consider: Preacher of the Schism, Malcolm, Alluring Scoundrel, Duelist of the Mind.
