I have replaced Firebrand Archer with Coruscation Mage, since the mage is strictly better than is the archer (which is weird, since the mage is an otter and the archer is a human).

Profet93, oh sorry I wasn't very clear! I guess I forgot to mention that I am planning on cutting the statue for Mindslaver.

Yes, there was a Commander Masters eldrazi precon that came out about a few months ago, and the upcoming Modern Horizons III set will include a completely new version of Emmy.

You'd be surprised how hard it can be to get combat damage in with Hellkite. Oftentimes, there are answers whether it be removal or big blockers. Sometimes people don't have many artifacts out too, so Hellkite isn't very reliable all the time, but it still can be a strong option.

Snake umbra combos very well with Firebrand Archer-like cards in my deck by providing me with decent card advantage on top of the totem armor for protection, so it is pretty good in the deck.

To be clear about how this works: Just casting All Will Be One by itself won't start the combo. When you cast it, Firebrand Archer triggers, then when the Archer's trigger resolves, Ob Nixilis, Captive Kingpin will trigger, but when Ob Nixilis' trigger resolves AWBO is still a spell on the stack. It's not on the battlefield yet and can't trigger yet from your opponent losing life. You need to cast another noncreature spell once AWBO has actually resolved and is on the battlefield in order to get things rolling.

I cast AWBO with both Ob and Firebrand Archer on the battlefield and my buddy casts Wilt to destroy All Will Be One. Would casting Wilt stop the combo?

This looks ok, for the most part. I play-tested it a few times to see how it would run. Based on that, I think it needs some more lands or some more (cheap) mana rocks (or both). I had to mulligan quite often in order to get a good starting hand of cards. Also, the deck needs some more card-advantage resources. Maybe Mind's Eye or War Room could help out on this front.

Other additions worth considering would be Firebrand Archer, Harsh Mentor and definitely Chandra's Incinerator.

I took the deck to my local FNM two weeks in a row and had an overall record of 3 wins and 4 losses. Not bad for a budget deck!

Making the following changes:

Removing

Firebolt x 4 - Firebolt was solid but the flashback cost often felt too steep to be relevant.

Firebrand Archer x 4 - When Archer stayed on the board it was great. But, with only one toughness, it's quite frail.

Substituting

Skewer the Critics x 4 - I'm already going hard on spectacle enablers for Light Up the Stage, so why not give Skewer a shot? :)

Thermo-Alchemist x 4 - Better survivability and spectacle synergy than the Archer.
