I'm currently building Mono Red Burn because its really inexpensive but this deck is the eventual end goal, something I could ostensibly take to a Grand Prix and do alright. Its still a work in progress and I'm new to Burn so comments and suggestions are more than welcome! :) Modern R/W Burn

maybe consider playing naya burn with Atarka's Command

I've played my RW list yesterday at a modern tournament with 36 people. Ended up 7th, really unlucky in the top 8 by getting stuck at 2 lands with 2 Blood Moon in hand against RG Valakut... But another RW build made it to the final so it's all good :)

I wouldn't go with Naya Burn, because you lose too much HP from your mana base. You also really increase your chances to get mana screwed. In the mirror, Boros is much better than Naya because of that.

The only real reason to run Naya would be Atarka's Command, but I find it kind of meh when running only 8 creatures in the form of Monastery Swiftspear and Goblin Guide. If you wanna deal 3 and prevent lifegain, just go with Skullcrack!
