on a 100$ budget. you better stay mono-red and drop Goblin Guide and Eidolon of the Great Revel and replace them withHellspark Elemental and Spark Elemental.another good card is Ball Lightning.With this you can start and upgrade to Goblin Guide and Eidolon of the Great Revel.

I suggest looking at the budget burn list from tolarion community college:it's a year oldn but still good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DkN7wm2p8k

@Arknir_Draknovlooks good, but 24 land is way too much for burn. because everything you cast is 2 mana or less. and drawing 1 land too many can make the difference between win or loss. (that's why they play all that fetchland)most burn decks play 19-20 land.you can drop the 4 land for 4 Keldon Marauders or Magma Jet.

for sideboard options you can go for cards like Rending Volley (twin and merfolk), Leyline of Punishment (any lifegain), Smash to Smithereens (affinity), Volcanic Fallout (token strategies), Dragon's Claw (mirrormatch) and a lot of other cards as well.
