Hey, I had an idea for a burn deck and would like to get your feedback: Godsire's Closet of Ancient Surge
Essentially, by turn 7-9, the player is dead, no questions asked. I can even get that number down to 6 if ramp works just right.

My issue with this deck is it does absolutely nothing until turn 3. Red deck would have murdered you before you can do anything. In fact most decks will murder you before you get to start doing stuff.

Ultimaodin has a point. You'll need something to protect you early game.
This comes in the form of removal (Lightning Bolt , Path to Exile ), blockers (Wall of Roots ), board sweepers (Pyroclasm , Wrath of God ) or some other form of disruption.
Some faster ramp might be a good idea too. Birds of Paradise is some of the best ramp you can get in the format, and the aforementioned Wall of Roots isn't too bad either. I'm concerned that you don't run very many ramp spells, and they aren't very cheap themselves.

Thanks for the feedback. I added more ramp via birds and sylvan. But I dont have that much room for early burn or removal. what do you think?

I'm not understanding how it's a burn deck.
