Just threw this deck together for fun really, and it's turning out to kick a lot of my friend's decks around pretty good....so does it stand a chance in hell at FNM do you think?

No, I don't think it does. In a burn deck you always want to be faster than the other deck. In other words you're trying to do too much. drop the healing aspect and lower your average converted mana cost, it should be around 2. Burn decks should mainly have cards that cost 1 or 2 and some 3; never 4 or more, unless it's something like Bonfire of the Damned . With a burn deck you should also be running b/w 19 and 21 land. Also brimstone volley is terrible in the deck as you have have no creatures and you should be sending your burn spells at your opponent. As for the current state of standard, it's mostly creature based so I feel burn will have a rough time.
