I created this deck with the initial idea of building a simpler deck to my previous ones. Something for someone brand new to magic. Unfortunately, it's not quite at simple as I had hoped. But despite that, I think it's a solid deck. (It should be noted that I'm still in the process of building this deck myself so I've yet to play test.

Another inspiration came from another shitty deck I built around Impact Tremors. The idea being that every card in your deck should give two benefits. The first being what the card itself does and the second is for it to be part of a combo, or to deal damage via cards like Impact Tremors or Purphoros, God of the Forge. Every spell will put creatures into play, refill your hand to put more creatures into play, deal damage or ramp you. The only exceptions being Blood Moon, Leyline of Punishment and Stranglehold. These help to slow down your opponent from gaining ground against you. Blood Moon being the most crippling against most other decks out there.

But this deck is more than just a deck about thoughtless burn. On no, it has my personal touch. I can't stay away from a combo or two to close out when all hope is lost.

Combos-

Splinter Twin + Zealous Conscripts = Infinite Zealous Conscripts.

Malignus + Dictate of the Twin Gods = a Fun, one turn combo that hits for lethal no matter what their life total is. You have that one friend who plays Oloro? Not a problem. and Flash on Dictate, the icing on the cake.

Heartless Hidetsugu + Dictate of the Twin Gods = Same as above.

From here, everything is highly synergistic. Loads of creatures, refill your hand. Got lands? No problem Molten Vortex for the very early, or aggressive, game or Seismic Assault for the slightly midder ranged game. Pentavus to deal as much damage as you have mana. Firecat Blitz to go full Kamakazi to close out a game. Young Pyromancer to make every instant or sorcery more fun and Norin the Wary to do it slightly less frequently, but once on every turn. Basically, fun deck does fun things.

tl;dr: Light the fire and watch how quickly it burns. Remember: Everything is flammable if you try hard enough.
