Second version of the deck! I found it a little more consistent as it relies a little less on the combo.

This is a (almost) dolless Stuffy Doll deck version. I always found Stuffy Doll too costy wich makes her deck kinda slow so I decided to try and come up with something a little quicker.

The main win conditions:

Boros Reckoner + (Insult / Injury) + Lightning Bolt for 6 combat damage and 12 burn damage on the same turn.

OR for the late game

Boros Reckoner + (Boros Reckoner or Stuffy Doll) + Insult / Injury + Lightning Bolt for 24 burn damage.

The first scenario can be achieved as soon as turn 4!Also to gain some life and do the same damage I have Lightning Helix.

My burn spells can also work as removals if needed. Just added Soul-Scar Mage to the list for testing, wich can possibly get rid of indestructible foes (also instant kill to persist foes) and can weaken those Tarmogoyf or similar creatures burn can't insta kill. For mass removal and also a little damage with Boros Reckoner i have a playset of Pyroclasm (wich can also do 4 damage to opponents creatures and 8 damage to opponent himself if casted along with Insult / Injury).

Path to Exile to deal with protection from red or stronger foes, could also be used to get a land sacrificing a Soul-Scar Mage in a pinch.

Defense Grid to guard agains removal, especially cheap ones (Path to Exile I'm looking at you!), and control decks with counterspells and similar. My game changes a bit too since I'll probably be dishing out my burn spells on my turn. But since this is kinda part burn and part combo I'll need those.

Faithless Looting and Magma Jet are just there to help me filter the cards I need for the win. Also Magma Jet with can also cause 8 damage to the opponent if needed using the same idea posted above. Also to help with card advantage and also more damage I have a set of Bedlam Reveler. Controlling the game with spells and also putting some on the graveyard with Faithless Looting I am usually able to put this guy on the table early in the game.

Sideboard:

Apostle's Blessing for extra protection, also during opponents turn if needed since it only costs 1 mana.Can also be used to block heavy beaters if needed.

Wear / Tear for general artifact and/or enchantment removal. It's a must since there are some Enchantments that will break my wincon (like Leyline of Sanctity for example). Also good agains aura decks to aim at those annoying Rancor.

Kor Firewalker to be used against other red decks, mainly naya burn which are really common in my meta.

Silence for decks that are too fast. Good agains auras/infect or decks that realy on the first few turns to have an upper hand... I can really disrupt those casting Silence on the first few turns since my deck will take a little longer to start doing stuff. Since it does not work well with Defense Grid I am accepting suggestions as to something better for this slot.

Wrath of God for more straithforward wipe against stronger creatures heavy decks Pyroclasm can't deal with (Zoo or Doran, etc).

Please like the deck if you.... liked the deck...And give me your thoughts, opinions and suggestions (mainboard and sideboard)! They are welcome!

EDIT

Made some changes to the deck today. As I played with this deck last week I found it was relying too much on the combo, and if countered in some way i found myself without cards pretty soon as I had no effects for card advantage. Also I had too few creatures. In searching for a good food I came up with Bedlam Reveler wich is kind of a perfect fit for the deck! I've been running a few tests and he really can put me back in the game if i find myself running out of cards... Now i have a little more atack/defence capabiliy also since he is a 3/4 (won't die by bolt) that can get stronger when i cast my brun spells!

Then I revisited the idea of using Nahiri's Wrath ! I removed it before since it was consuming my hand too fast, but i found it to fit really well with Bedlam Reveler! She will help with filling my graveyard with instants/sorceries and giving my cards value while cleaning out my opponents creatures and/or dishing out damage targeting mine. Also good the other way arrond because discarding a Bedlam Reveler for Nahiri's Wrath equals 8 more damage to targets!

I decided to put the Pyroclasm in the main deck and move the Silence to the sideboard, and I changed a little how many of each card. Running only a single copy of Blasphemous Act now.
