Hey guys,I've somewhat recently been playing a lot with my pet deck,
The Tamanoa Package
Modern
SCORE: 1 | 20 VIEWS
and I've been wondering if there are any powerful burn spells that I am missing. I prefere spells that deal a lot of damage, thus I play spells like Roast and Searing Blood. Are there any fringe spells I am missing?

My bad that's bad wording I meant more fringe spells that don't see tons of play.

Skull crack is bad because it counters my own life gain, and I already play Flame Slash. Thanks for the suggestions!

Atarka's Command is good and is played in Modern Burn.

DarksteelBadger: The command is a amazing card, don't get me wrong, but this is just not the deck for it. The first draft of the deck had a full 4, then the second had 3, then 2, then none. I only have 1-3 creatures in play at a time, and I want all my spells to kill creatures so I can start the beats with my big creatures.

berryjon: I'm gonna pick up a copy just so I can put it in in casual games for the laughs.

You want to play Fiery Justice. I feel like it's worth the drawback. (It was Timeshifted in Time Spiral so its Modern legal.)

Also Destructive Revelry should be in your sideboard.
If you want crazy damage infliction I can also recommend Blasphemous Act especially in multi-player games. Shivan Meteor could also work, but it might be too clunky.

Check out Shard Volley. High risk, but high reward.

So... You are asking for spells like Flames of the Blood Hand?
Why would you only want niche spells?
