It's a rather simple strategy:

The deck runs a lot of instants and sorceries that provide multiple tokens. Except for Spawning Breath, they all have a creature/mana ratio of 1 c/m. Use Isochron Scepter to copy them...

Young Pyromancer adds another token whenever you cast one of those instants, so your overall c/m ratio wil be somewhere around 1,5 c/m.

Doomed Traveler is easily underestimated. It has the highest c/m ratio in the deck, no other card reaches 2 c/m by itself.

Increasing Devotion has become a special card to me. Sure, it costs 5 mana, and has 1 c/m like the rest. But the token/card ratio is incredible. That's 5 tokens with a single card! And I'm not even counting flashback in. Let's imagine that with both Purphoros, God of the Forge and Goblin Bombardment out. That's 10 purpho-burn and another 5 from sac-burn, for a total of 15 damage!

Possible play:

T1 Plains , Enlightened Tutor
T2 Mountain, Goblin Bombardment
T3 Plains , Timely Reinforcements (your opponent should have a creature out by now)
T4 Mountain, Purphoros, God of the Forge
T5 Plains , Increasing Devotion for 15 damage

Advice and suggestions welcome.

Update: I've built a UWr variation of this deck. If you like this, you will probably also like the new one.
