        Lands

18 x Mountain

2x Sunscorched Desert. Extra damage through lands.

2x Scavenger GroundsHits God Pharaohs Gift decks and scarab god and torrential gearhulk targets great utility land.

       Creatures

4 x Bomat Courier Gets in early and can potentially draw you several cards.

4 x Soul-Scar Mage Solid 1 drop with two abilities that synergize with the deck.

4 x Fanatical Firebrand
One drop with haste that can be flung late game or used as removal.

4 x Ahn-Crop Crasher Three drop with haste that gets through single blockers.

4 x Earthshaker Khenra Ability to remove blockers early is huge. Also has late game potential.

4 x Hazoret the Fervent This card wins games period and now with all the answers to it costing 4cmc it's even better.

2 x GlorybringerSolid finisher and repeatable removal on a evasive hard to kill body.

       Spells

4 x Shock Solid burn.

4 x Lightning Strike Solid burn.

2 x Abrade Utility removal against god pharaohs gift decks or against mirror match Aethersphere Harvester.

2 x Chandra, Torch of Defiance Bane of control decks difficult to deal with and can win games.

       Sideboard

2x Sweltering Suns Answer for token decks that will see a resurgence.

2 x Abrade Solid utility for god pharaohs gift.

2 x Chandra's Defeat For mirror match.

2 x Glorious End Trump card vs Approach and solid vs god pharaohs and merfolks.

2 x Chandra, Torch of Defiance Bane of control decks difficult to deal with and can win games.

2 x Rekindling Phoenix Testing this against control decks.

3 x Magma Spray Currently my meta is RDW heavy aswell as GR monsters, RB Aggro and I feel this is solid in this matchup.
