Sideboard


This was a mono-red deck built around direct damage to win. I'm finding that the Kiln Fiend is the real heavy hitter in this deck.

The quick cost instants combined with the Kiln Fiend's ability can end your opponents game very quick. If the play draws out, the Fire Servant will be your best friend doubling all your damage spells. The Flamekin Harbinger allows you to search for an elemental (all the creatures are elemental) based on situational play. Stigma Lasher will end a Life Deck; Ingot Chewer can destroy an artifact for 1 early on, or you can grab a Kiln Fiend early or a Fire Servant later.

Chandra, the Firebrand's +1 and -2 abilities are all you really need from her, as she will plink or copy your spells.

Isochron Scepter will help keep cards in your hands by letting you cast your Lightning Bolt, Lightning Strike, Incinerate, Shock or even the Searing Blood or Smash to Smithereens.

Pyromancer's Goggles will double up your damage for a spell.

Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle is nice later on if the game drags and you draw into lands...

I love the artwork on these cards... Perfectly depicts the "Burn" for a burn deck.

Updates Add

Added 4 copies of Smash to Smithereens to the sideboard to deal with Artifact Heavy decks. Just swap out the Lightning Strike, etc...
