This deck is all about racing the opponent's life to zero as fast as possible. It may have been just a dumb luck, but it has been very successful so far:)
It relies on constant attrition of low cmc creatures like unleashed Rakdos Cackler, hateful Ash Zealot, and hyper fast Burning-Tree Emissary.
Mix that with affordable bloodrush of
Rubblebelt Maaka
and
Pyrewild Shaman
, which can additionally be cheaply recycled or played as creature when in need.
Chandra's Phoenix shines in this deck. It swings for 2+ almost every turn and just begs for creature removal, but Chandra, Pyromaster and the couple of instants included in the deck just return it to hand, for free.
Ogre Battledriver is not very essential in this deck, but I like to know it's there for matches that would go on for too long. It also turns early creatures into mid-range creatures.
I included
Flames of the Firebrand
only because Searing Spear is rotating out, but turns out it's much better to pay one mana more and remove 1-2 targets more. It's also very handy for fishing out Chandra's Phoenix.
Act of Treason is my favourite finisher. It's usually on turn 4-5 when the opponent drops something 6/6 big. Sorry mate, you just killed yourself:)
