This looks pretty interesting to play as a budget deck. I can see that some of the Instants and Sorceries will be affected by rotation, but the creature base looks like it will last a while, and no issues on the manabase!

On the creature side of things, I can see that you are keeping a pretty low curve but have you thought about something like Skitterskin as a curve topper? Maybe as a 2 of? I can see how you are getting benefit from part of Conduit of Ruin but the first half of that card is having no effect for you, and is a 6CMC card.

At rotation, Spell Shrivel might be an idea to replace either Neutralizing Blast or Disdainful Stroke as it gives you more fuel for your Processors. Murderous Cut you could perhaps replace with Titan's Presence althought you may want to keep your Conduit of Ruin in for using that.

I have a couple more ideas if you want them, but there are a few to chew over. I will have to make sure we get a game in Standard soon!

Ok, it's a good start. For devoid, you're probably going to want a second color to splash into your deck. Black/Red is pretty good and can hit super hard out of nowhere while still giving you access to some great removal spells so your damage spells can be tossed at the person's face.Flayer Drone, Skitterskin, Transgress the Mind, Vile Aggregate, Swarm Surge, Dust Stalker, and Forerunner of Slaughter are a few examples of the cards you can put into a Black/Red beatdown deck.

If you already have Exquisite Firecraft, I'd say get another 3 copies of it and don't worry about the rest.

What about Skitterskin to keep up aggression since he can always just be regenerated or would you consider him to high in mana for this deck. Also you might want to consider Outnumber over touch. No it cant go to the face but if an opponent manages to get a big beater out against you this is alot more effective
