A fun deck, the first deck I've bought a paper copy of. I've put all of the POTENTIAL cards below, and why they'd be good or bad.

Abrade - Good, versatile removal. Good tempo, especially with our creatures. Clashing costs may be an issue. Maybe Lightning Strike would be better in a tempo deck. Lightning Strike - Probably a better version of Abrade for this deck. Deeproot Champion - A perfect tempo creature. Gets stronger every time we focus on controlling the board or burning face. Firebrand Archer - This deck will often burn your opponent out. Good power, perhaps on the weaker side on toughness. Not as much potential as the Deeproot. Struggle/Survive - Actually probably the ideal deck for this card. Probably a sideboard option above all else. Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Can remove a creature and then become a way to pump out more instants and sorceries or keep burning your opponent for damage. Soul-Scar Mage - Makes removal more versatile, whilst also being a good 1-drop that curves into 2-drops whilst sometimes making those 2-drops more valuable. Glorybringer - If you want to go more creature-heavy, Glorybringer is just an all-round good red card. However, it's too expensive and doesn't synergize with much else in the deck. Blossoming Defense - Really a very inconsequental card, I would consider running this deck is you run into a lot of removal. Gunna run it anyway. Life Goes on - Obvs for red aggro sideboard options. Vance's Blasting Cannons - Decent card draw late. Shock - Cheap damage, procs abilities. Shaper's Sanctuary - Protects your creatures, procs prowess and so on. All round good. Chandra's Defeat - For Ramunap Red decks. Glorious End - I play this deck for fun, and include my one copy of this card. Hungry Flames - Damages a creature, pushes face, at instant speed and our creatures curve well into it. Might be good. Tormenting Voice - Need to keep spells and creatures. With our cheap spells we can afford to filter.
