Face-melting Aggro-Storm! (Modern MTG Deck)

Capable of wrecking face on turn 1-2, this deck showcases Storm Entity with Empty the Warrens for an aggro-storm win! Both pretty much want the same thing, which is lots of spells! Since they're both red, a mono red storm deck is the perfect fit!

Simian Spirit Guide offers extra turn 1 explosiveness, and we use our life total as a resource with our off-color cantrips Gitaxian Probe and Street Wraith. If you have an excess of Manamorphose, you don't even need to lose the life with Probe if you'd rather not (but I always do!).

The best start goes something like this: T1- play Goblin Guide. T2- play a bunch of rituals and cantrips alongside some Burning-Tree Emissary and end with a large hasty Storm Entity or 10 goblin tokens with Empty the Warrens. Swing with your hasty guys. T3- If they're not already dead, kick a Goblin Bushwhacker and make them dead with your remaining tokens or storm a little more and finish them with Bolts.

This is one of the most fun decks I've ever seen, and once I saw a similar list I had to build it irl and tinker with the numbers some myself. While it's not likely going to win any GP's anytime soon, I highly recommend taking it to modern night and surprising everyone there with a new(er) take on storm!

Edit

Magmatic Insight may help with opening hands that are land-heavy (3+), or help when I'm using rituals just to increase storm count for a Storm Entity.
