From the top:
@Enigma64: I guess it's infect but only in the pump aspect.
@Leinahtan: Sheltering Word is used because its secondary effect is more useful.
@Ancient_Sentinal: Thanks, glad you liked it.
@Dr_Moosh: I've been meaning to do some playtesting on those.
@Rabid_Rabbit: I love the idea of Blistercoil Weird. Can't believe I didn't think of it. Thanks.
@veeonix: I'm just a student, so Goyf is well out of the question. I don't even have my Goblin Guides yet. I've tried both Burning-Tree Emissary and Manamorphose, but both felt clunky in the deck. Infect doesn't seem worth it as a side strategy. I'd rather have that space for actual side measures rather than a strategy this deck isn't tuned for.
@Mgrabusky: Kavu Predator gets a lot of undue criticism, though I can see why. I'll try testing some stuff once I'm out of AP testing season.

Is it due to your meta that it is mainboarded? It should really be sideboarded.

Maybe give blistercoil wierd a try in place of Kavu Predator.

You seriously don't want Grove of the Burnwillows, even though it works great with Kavu Predator? Not even a singleton?

What u reconmend for a budget idea of this without vexing devils and goblin guides ?
May 9, 2015 10:46 p.m.
Kavu Predator is coming out in the next batch of edits, its replacement just needs some testing. Plus Burnwillows is a $40 card that I don't need to add to an already solid mana base.
In terms of budget... it really depends. For Goblin Guide you could go for an above the curve 1 drop without haste (Maybe Zurgo Bellstriker). For Vexing Devil probably Blistercoil Weird would be the best substitute (That won't work for the new list though, which will include multiple Blistercoils).

you could add Kolaghan Stormsinger's. You can play him a few different ways, depending on your preferences. 1/1 Haste creature, or a 2/2 haste creature and give a beefy card haste. Can cause quite a few problems for your opponents if not dealt with. I've played a 4-of of this card in my green-red aggro deck, and he works very well when you add Double-Striking Dragons into the mix.

I don't think Kolaghan Stormsinger fits. As a 1/1 with haste and no other abilities it isn't great. As a 2/2 for 4, its second ability doesn't have any amazing targets in this deck.

I like the deck!! Somewhat similar to my R/G modern, check it out.

Yeah, Kiln Fiend is already in the next batch of edits.

I know you have this whole prowess type theme going, but I feel like Kitchen Finks would be a good creature for the later game because of the recursion. 3 in this decks means you can remove an extra 3 creatures and add an extra 3 pumps or anything else you might need with low cost. Plus you not only gain life, but he usually lures the Path out of an opponents hand. Might be worth testing. Cool deck though +1

Paradise Mantle? it's a great combo with Blistercoil Weird

Run Assault Strobe over Temur Battle Rage. Sure it's a sorcery, but it's one mana less, so then you can cast another pump spell.

Try taking out the kavu predator. It is definently a sideboard card. Add in another vexing devil, another goblin guide, and another charging badger. Definently makes the deck more consistent.
