Personally I would put the Lightning Bolts back in, in place of Flame Slash. Lightning Bolt is the best card in meta. Rite of Consumption in my limited experience playing with this deck, seems pretty useless. I would stick 2 of those Terminates in there probably instead. In general just trying to get a little more control maybe. The main weakness of this deck is your own life loss. Control will eat this combo and a good enough aggro deck will too if it deals some early T1 or 2 damage. Huge fan of the concept and the combo though. Built one myself.

MadDogLai I think you've just been unlucky then.

Kjartan maybe. I lose really hard against affinity deck. I added Vexing Devil and thinking of Bloodsoaked Champion to improve my chances.

But really fun deck to play

Fetch lands and more dual lands but then your deck price will go way up.

MadDogLai - Well, this is not really a teir 1 deck, and it's not really crazy consistant by nature, unlike affinity.

Kolaghan's Command and two more Simian Spirit Guide could help on both problems.

Shatterstorm will also be a playable sideboard option, especially along the playset of spirit guide.

As I scrolled through these comments I saw something about turn 3 win with Master of Cruelties not being possible. This is actually totally possible but very unlikely: T1 Generator Servant off Simian Spirit Guide. T2 Generator Servant. T3 Sac both Generator Servants play Master of Cruelties leaving up 1 untapped land. After damage Simian Spirit Guide exiles for Fling. This would require you to be on the draw and to draw every one of the required cards in your opening hand and the 3 draws you have. Lol

You can't play 4 copies of Terminate in the side if you have 2 copies in the main board.

but cool deck

Just a suggestion, why not play Temur Battle Rage instead of Assault Strobe?

Perhaps Thud or Rite of Consuption? This deck also reminds me of Tainted Sigil
