StYY on split second combo stack manipulation …

"Whenever you cast an instant" cards like Guttersnipe, Aria of Flame possibly untap engines like Thermo-Alchemist and Unruly Catapult with dmg doubling effects like Furnace of Rath would work well. Cards that copy the next spell like Chandra, Hope's Beacon Cursed Recording and the emblem from Rowan, Scholar of Sparks  ^Flip

Krark, the Thumbless adds an interesting interaction, you can trigger all of your "when you cast" triggers then have a 50/50 chance of getting the spell back to do it again, or you get a double spell.

CommanderNeyo yea, I have been playtesting it and I might need to include 4x copies of Aria of Flame. I thought I may have enough draw, but it was not enough and I may actually also include something like Archmage Emeritus.

Never thought of abusing Pentad Prism with proliferate, but that is genius!

If Aria of Flame is your wincon, wouldn't you want to have 4x of it, to make sure you have one? Especially because it will hurt if your opponent has counter magic, it would be hard to find the second copy...

I have not considered Mistveil Plains. A little graveyard-to-the-library recursion may be useful, particularly, as you mentioned, with Sunforger on our side of the battlefield. Maybe swapping this in for Needle Spires or Temple of Triumph is reasonable. Vandalblast's absence from the deck at this time can be explained by availability. When this deck was built, copies of Vandalblast were not plentiful. Now, after many instances of reprinting, it is much more feasible to include a copy of it here. As for Into the Core, I've always been a big fan of this card, and for the reasons you mentioned: Instant-speed artifact exile. Blightsteel Colossus is very, very popular in my playgroup, to the point of reconciling ways to answer it for when (not if) if hits the battlefield. Into the Core handles this problem well. Another card I love is Aria of Flame. I have championed this card since its debut in MH1. It is the second card I consider tutoring for after Aetherflux Reservoir. Its enchantment status gives it staying power on the battlefield, and if the Feather engine is revving optimally, then gifting our opponents with that extra life is never a problem. Give it a whirl!

Aria of Flame might be good!

ViscountVonSausageRoll is right. Cast Hidden Strings while Sprite Dragon is on the field and let it resolve, then use the Cipher keyword to encode it on Sprite Dragon and you'll get to cast a copy if it deals combat damage to a player. That free cast of Hidden Strings triggers Sprite Dragon's ability, Aria of Flame's effect, and Thermo-Alchemist's ability, which is everything I could ask for in this deck. For free? No way am I passing that up.

Aria of Flame, with your boss doubling the effect you cause major damage very fast

maybe Clout of the Dominus for defense

storm build prosper is very fun indeed :)

i have found Dragon's Rage Channeler Burning Prophet and Quicksmith Genius to be quite helpfull in my storm build. The quicksmith is probably even nicer in yours as you can take advantage of the discard.

some alternative finishers to concider Aria of Flame Sentinel Tower.

I'm gonna steal your idea of Pentad Prism, didn't have that one in my list yet!
