For a Mono-Red deck without the staples of Boros Reckoner Stormbreath Dragon it looks pretty good. Certainly look into trading for Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx while up at FNM as well as the two previous cards mentioned. Try Firefist Striker instead of Frostburns so that Burning-Tree Emissary can cast something other than a burn spell. It also sets you up for attack the next turn. +1

Maybe a couple Weapon Surge for an aggro mirror and some extra damage.

Also if you're sideboarding Burning Earth , ditch the Temple of Malice mainboard for more Mountain . You don't want to hurt yourself for no reason.

Maybe add a couple of Mizzium Mortars as well to hit bigger targets.

As for your maybeboard I would only add Thunderous Might if you plan on running Archetype of Aggression . Hammer of Purphoros seems decent because you need more 3 drops to fix your curve and Thunder Brute seems way to slow for this kind of deck.

These would be my changes to the deck:

-4 Temple of Malice

-2 Shock

-1 Mogis, God of Slaughter

-2 Rakdos Shred-Freak

+2 Mountain

+2 Thunderous Might

+2 Hammer of Purphoros

+1 Purphoros, God of the Forge

+2 Archetype of Aggression

And as far as sideboard goes:

-2 Act of Treason

-2 Anger of the Gods

-2 Peak Eruption

-3 Electrickery

+3 Mizzium Mortars

+3 Weapon Surge

+2 Skullcrack

+1 Burning Earth
