Ah the ol' thrum thrum! I can see how that can be big.

3x38 is only 114 though, so wondering how you'd kill off a 3x40=120 typical pod table (usually with a lifegain player in there somewhere) in the same turn?

Could probably drop 2 lands to add 2 more Dragon's Approach or even better one of the spell doubling artifacts or Pyromancer's Gauntletthat you can tutor out like Spellweaver Helix, Mirari, Twinning Staff, Pyromancer's Goggles or a storm finisher like a Grapeshot or Galvanic Relay or Fiery Encore or Ignite Memories or something?

Or maybe Feldon of the Third Path to copy out Hoarding Dragon from the yard?

Actually, scratch The Flame of Keld, Pyromancer's Gauntlet They're a bit more restrictive and less useful in this deck.

Ziamyou on The Best Burn Deck Ever

I wouldnt call this a burn deck. A true burn deck would never have anywhere near 20 creatures. besides you really need Pyromancer's Gauntlet in there

ImaginitiveRascal Yea that would be the smart thing to do. But I like making gimmick decks, I have strong commanders with Kaalia, Selvala and Braids so I'm toning it down a bit.

I actually had Jaya, Venerated Firemage on this deck before, I just took her out bc I thought I had enough burn amping things with Pyromancer's Gauntlet and Torbran, Thane of Red Fell. I thought I needed more of other things in the deck. I might be wrong though, I'll definitely keep an eye out.

I think they were talking about the price of the card being a little steep not the mana costs to play or activate.

The best things about either Grim Lavamancer or Cursed Scroll is that they are repeatable and targetable burn. Either one basically lets you Shock at will with easy requirements to use them.

As already mentioned, it is unlikely that Razor Pendulum will change the outcome of any game you are playing and you have zero control over the damage the card provides. Replacing it with any form of repeatable and targetable burn is a better idea than that card. Especially if you go with the assorted Chandra planeswalkers or any card with an activated burn ability like the lavamancer or scroll.

There is a giant pool of cards better than the razor to help burn decks win games. Stuff like Double Vision, Pyromancer's Gauntlet, Staff of Nin, Thermo-Alchemist, Guttersnipe, Torbran, Thane of Red Fell, Tectonic Giant, and Firebrand Archer and many more. There are a lot of choices depending on the deck and format that are better options than that Razor Pendulum.

Because Signature Spellbook: Jace included Blue Elemental Blast, I believe that it is safe to presume that this set shall contain Red Elemental Blast, and I forgot to mention that the artifact in this set could potentially be Pyromancer's Gauntlet, as well.

Have you tried Pyromancer's Gauntlet ? It seems flavorful and relatively powerful.
