Firedancer is cool, but IMO not powerful enough for Modern burn; he costs 2 mana, doesn't do guaranteed damage, and dies to everything. Also, he's competing with the awesomely powerful Eidolon for a two-drop slot, and one enchantment creature in the list is plenty in a format with the likes of Tarmogoyf.
Anyway ESTABAUSS, I would certainly recommend Path to Exile in the side to answer opponents' Firewalkers and Wurmcoil Engines. It does not do damage but it answers some very problematic cards like those. I would not run more than two. Hemorrhage is more for if you wanted to stick to mono-red, but if you're in white you should take full advantage of it.

StoneKiller33: ComradeJim270 addressed all of my concerns with the card. It just not potent enough in modern, at least in my opinion.
ComradeJim270: I figured Path to Exile would be the better card in the board. My worries that path would not do damage, or sometimes not have a target, are counteracted by its lower mana cost and ability to answer more creatures. I still have not been able to test this deck out at my gamestore, but once I do I will have a better idea of what answers I need in the board. For now, I am going to keep Reality Hemorrhage in, but that is likely to change.

Have you thought about Choke for the control matchup?

Choke is not a good card in burn. It's actually better to have something countered than to spend 3 mana on something that does no damage.

MrCookenstein: I will not deny the power of Choke, but, once again, ComradeJim270 has addressed my concerns. In burn, the card does not further my game plan, and therefore does basically nothing.

I've done a lot of studying and practicing when it comes to burn in modern. The boros burn isn't as effective as naya burn now. The utility green gives you is too good to pass! With green you have Wild Nacatl which can just start becoming a 3/3 beater very fast, along with Atarka's Command which is a strictly better Skullcrack, lastly you have access to Destructive Revelry which is great in the sideboard against affinity. Also I've come to the conclusion that Reality Hemorrhage is a waste of space, it would just be better to run other Kor Firewalker than to attempt to use it. There is an insanely small chance you're ever going to use it since most burn decks will only run 2 Kor Firewalker anyways and you only run 2 Reality Hemorrhage in your side. If you want to see my naya burn deck you can go to my profile and it should appear on my wall, I would tag it to this but someone has the same name as it so I can't. Hopefully this helped you a lot!

Whoops my bad, you only run 1 Reality Hemorrhage in your sideboard.

Also I'd replace 1/2 mountains with fetches to have more landfall triggers and to better thin out your deck so you can get the cards you want.

In your sideboard depending on your meta you must have affinity hate. As of now you have none. Good cards to put in for that if you choose to stick with boros burn would be Stony Silence, Shattering Spree, and Smash to Smithereens. Also I wanted to let you know your creatures are perfect, that's exactly what you want.

I have done considerable testing with both Boros and Naya burn and have reached the same conclusion as you. As stated in my deck description, Naya "is what I want this build to eventually turn into. The most powerful burn option in my opinion." As of right now, I don't have enough money to finish out the build.
As for Reality Hemorrhage, you addressed most of your own concerns. I run the one-of for the utility against Etched Champion, as well as for the obvious Kor Firewalker.
I also have enough affinity hate, given the 4 Destructive Revelry's in the board. I chose that over any of the others you mentioned because it furthers my gameplan, (doing damage to the opponent) while given me more utility than a Smash to Smithereens or such. For all of these reasons, I believe it is worth the splash.

Yep looks good, and sorry I wasn't paying attention, I didn't notice you having the affinity hate. I'm glad we agree, your deck looks great +1 from me!

Satyr Firedancer is a great card to pick off low level creatures so Monastery Swiftspear can do some damage.
