The intention of this deck is to use Koth and Garruk together to maximize mana ramping for a massive burn spell finish via Fireball or Red Sun's Zenith.

The deck's intention is also to take into consideration the Zendikar Block rotation. As such, very little ramp cards are implemented at this point.

Praetor's Counsel (and maybe Elixir of Immortality) are used to keep the burn cards cycling through the library or the player's hand.

Volt Charge and Throne of Geth help with the proliferate engine for the planeswalkers. Contagion Clasp is currently in the Maybeboard.

Wurmcoil Engine (and maybe Steel Hellkite) also provide support as colorless 6 drops for mid game.

Since this is a prototype deck, the following decklist is not a set-in-stone inclusive list and will be modified as the M12 card list becomes available.

Any suggestions to improve this deck and make it faster would be appreciated. Thanks.
