Clicked on the list because I wondered how you'd manage to do Taii as a phoenix tribal. Then I spoke out the name and audibly rolled my eyes. This earned you an upvote xD

Regarding any suggestions: You already have Boros Reckoner in here. How about also including Stuffy Doll, Brash Taunter and other similar effects?

freezerboy on Does card:General's Regalia and card:Jade …

This is a little complicated because I run Zirda, the Dawnwaker, but say I have a General's Regalia, Furnace of Rath and Jade Monolith in play with a bunch of mana free. Something I own deals damage to myself like tapping a Ancient Tomb, and I redirect it to one of my creatures like Boros Reckoner, can I then tap 1 each time the damage is redirected to keep exponentially increasing the damage till I shoot a player for lethal?

Ah, I love this! I always liked Boros Reckoner with Skred as a finisher. I miss those days. I'm glad they added the Modern Beyond Horizons format for decks like this.

Have you considered adding Ill-Tempered Loner  ^Flip to the deck? It is basically a second Boros Reckoner, but if it flips it doubles up on the damage-dealing of your sticks.

And the main reason you'd want your own creatures fighting each other is the Enrage mechanic and a few other fringe cases (i.e. Ranging Raptors/Boros Reckoner).

Nice deck! Have you considered adding a Boros Reckoner or two? It works extremely well with Blasphemous Act and Chain Reaction, as well as getting double-duty from Repercussion (by allowing you to direct any damage it takes back to the opponent's creature, which will still hit them).

I would also consider a couple Boros Charms, since they can either do damage or give your creatures indestructible (again, works well with Blasphemous Act and Chain Reaction for a one-sided board whipe).

It seems like you all just play Casual based on your format description, I haven't heard of any official format like that before. That is basically what my friends and I played when we got into Magic before switching over to Commander/EDH.

PhyrexianPraetor Thannks again for all the good card suggestions. I really appreciate it! I remember the black devotion decks well, good ol Gary! Gray Merchant of Asphodel and Phyrexian Obliterator, nasty stuff mate! The Shivan Devastator is indeed a pretty sick new card! I have a few but they are in my brother's Dragon deck with the Stormbreath Dragons and Thunderbreak Regents, but maybe I'll order another one or two for me! Boros Reckoner is a great card as well, I had them in the main board, and they have totally saved my skin in the past, I pushed them out to lower the curve a bit more, but I always keep them in the wings as a possibility. Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx is already in the deck, gotta have that in any devotion deck for sure! Robber of the Rich is also a great card that can provide value and remove possible threats from the opponents deck before they become a problem, I wish I had paper copies, I have him in my historic RDW on arena for certain, I'll look getting some physical copies. As for the War Elemental, Stigma Lasher, Harsh Mentor, and Vexing Shusher, I do not have any of those cards, but I'll put them into consideration! Cheers!
