Drakuseth Feat, Balefire Feat, Drakusurge,

Doesn't matter what it's called, it's a great deck.

Cast Geosurge or Irencrag Feat into a Drakuseth, Maw of Flames or Balefire Dragon as fast as possible, usually by turn 3 or 2, but t1 is possible and happens kinda often. If you need to, you can even just ramp normally, but that’s a bit slower.

Simian Spirit Guide, Chancellor of the Tangle and Gemstone Caverns really help speed things up. Lots of the time you can let your opponent go first just to get caverns down quickly.

Dryad Arbor is there to be fetched off of Wooded Foothills to be sacrificed to Infernal Plunge

Birds of Paradise, Arbor Elf and Magus of the Vineyard fill that same role. magus if better ramp, but kind of risky.

Pentad Prism is pretty good.

Vessel of Volatility by itself gets a big ritual by turn three.

Dragonlord Atarka is there just for a tiny bit of consistency.
