Braid of Fire
Enchantment
Cumulative upkeep—Add . (At the beginning of your upkeep, put an age counter on this permanent, then sacrifice it unless you pay its upkeep cost for each age counter on it.)

Appreciate it, I like the Sphinx of the Second Sun idea, I might trade that for something. I have Bitterblossom in the maybe board, I might try swapping it in to see how it does. I think there's a good amount of self damaging upkeep triggers here so I don't know if Bitterblossom makes the cut. Braid of Fire seems nice if I have more instant speed spells/abilities I want to do on my turn, but I don't. Maybe if I put in Jhoira and the tenth doctor.

looks fun! You might want Sphinx of the Second Sun which can help give you some upkeep-redundency in games where you just can't get in for damage with Obeka for whatever reason. Although it's a hefty casting cost at 8 mana.
In the same vein as Star Whale is Deep-Sea Kraken, one of my fav Time Spiral cards. Although I'm not sure it's better than Star Whale. I just like seeing old cards getting powered-up and remade for new sets.
Bitterblossom could also be fun in this deck if you can get more connect with Obeka and get extra upkeeps.
Lastly, Braid of Fire could be good if you want to move to a more instant/sorcery heavy strategy.
you've got a great draft here!

Braid of Fire doesn't really do much for burn decks. It does gain momentum, but you're left with a pile of mana and nothing special to use it on. It also takes away the option of reactivity, which can be a concern in certain matchups. It's much more of a combo card than an aggro card.

Braid of Fire seems pointless:
-
It's one-less burn spell in hand
-
Burn only needs 2 mana to do everything it needs to, and so by the time you can cast this you already don't want/need more mana
-
it can only help you cast instant speed stuff, so not even universally helpful at ramping you.

Do y'all think Braid of Fire is useful? Seems slow, but gains momentum.

The issue with Braid of Fire is that it adds all of the red at the start of your upkeep. Which is then lost as soon as you move to the next phase. So unless you deeply care about casting any of your instants with it, none of which are mono-red, I don't think Braid will do too much for you.

Radiant Destiny feels underpowered for this deck- it's not like adding +1/+1 to the Avatars is gonna be a big swing.
Have you considered adding Braid of Fire for ever increasing quantities of mana?
