I like the vexing... +1

Cool deck! Er... Hot, whatever.

It looks good as is, but I'm wondering if it would be worth it to you to run some artifacts simply for Shrapnel Blast . Maybe some artifact mana cards? Kind of a weird suggestion I know, but might be fun?

There's also fetchlands, but thats a huge investment as of late..

Still looks like a good deck! Just some thoughts.

PS I really like Vexing Devil , but for a deck like this, how does it compare to Lavamancer? Another random idea would be to splash some white and Proclamation of Rebirth your Devils and Guides....

Thanks for the comment!

Shrapnel Blast looks like it could be a very good burn card but I feel like I'd have to change the deck more just to accommodate it for the one card. I'm not to familiar with any artifacts that would help RDW but 5 damage for 2 mana is very appealing so suggestions welcome.

I play on MTGO so Fetches and Shocks aren't nearly as big as an investment as paper magic but still an investment for down the line which will help out current and future decks

I used to run Grim Lavamancer , which is why I have it in the maybe board, but I just didn't have a good experience with it. Vexing Devil hits hard on turn 1.

I have considered splashing white for Boros Charm . It's a good burn card being 2 for 4.

I don't really know too many mana artifacts, but there are a few on Gatherer.

Boros Charm is great indeed. I've had good luck with the Devil and Proc. But again, that's changing the game plan a bit.

Hope it keeps working out!

This seems legit, and extremely fast.

Only thing I would say is maybe a Guttersnipe ? I know it's a 3 drop but could pay off with all them instant and sorceries.

Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you like my deck!

I have never considered Guttersnipe , probably because he is a 3 drop, but his effect does sound good. I don't think I'd main board him but maybe in the sideboard bringing him in when games are slower like against control decks. He might be useful then to get some extra damage out of every spell and to still get damage in when being countered.
