At last, a nearly-creatureless deck using partner commanders! This was one of the most challenging builds in a while...

Anyway, an almost entirely red burn deck, the focus is on big -spells, like Blaze , Bonfire of the Damned, or Starstorm. Even when dealing 2-3 damage, these spells work off of Ludevic for card draw, which is a huge advantage early-game.

Once mana-doubling artifacts, a la Gauntlet of Might, are in effect (tutored easily with blue and black spells), the real fun begins. The damage ramps exponentially when Vial Smasher effectively DOUBLES the damage every time you cast it, and to a random victim! It's pure, unavoidable burn damage gone wild, without becoming a chaos deck.

With enough scrying or Wheel effects, (via Mystic Speculation or Reforge the Soul), you can always hit Furnace of Rath or Dictate of the Twin Gods, turning every single turn into a lethal damage bomb against at least two players at once.

Even counters are ineffective, since Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   or Dralnu, Lich Lord are there to pick up the pieces.

And yes, I KNOW that Snapcaster is a good addition, but I base my decks on cards I already own, or could reasonably purchase. That is NOT in the price range; my apologies to perfectionists.
