Post-Rotation Burn?

Dragons & Origins Rotate out, that means: no more kohlagans's command, no abbot, no more equisite firecraft. and so on, tons of staples rotate out.

Competitive Mono red burn is dead, the next best choice is red-black madness burn.

We still got the madness lightning bolts that are Fiery Temper and Alms of the Vein.

New chandra is an auto-include. And have you seen Catharic Reunion? 2 mana, discard 2, draw 3. A powerhouse for madness decks. Let's say you discard 2x fiery temper for 2 more mana, and you get 6 damage and 3 draws for 4 mana total, that's a huge-ass deal imho.

But what's next? We could really use some more red or black burnspells to round things up. Any ideas?

Well, the b/r splash Fevered Visions deck seems like a great place to start. Imagine something like this:

turn 2 Thermo-Alchemist

turn 3 Fevered Visions

turn 4 cathartic reunion madnessing Fiery Temper and Alms of the Vein. Pretty great, right?
