Hm, I’ll have to think about that zapyourtumor. I was thinking Skred would be on par or better than Lightning Bolt, with 12 potential snow permanents to fuel it, but you raise a valid point. Although the suite of counter- and burn spells are really only here to stave off threats until we can get some coin flips happening...which we’re guaranteed to win. Between Fiery Gambit, Molten Birth and Goblin Traprunner we’ll have limitless opportunities to burn targets.

With Steam Vents, I don't think Skred is worth running here. Also, removing Skred would let you run more duals/fetch for shocks more often, which would let you run Counterspell instead of Mana Leak.

I'll try it out when I get the snow land, though I'm not sure how good it is. I was tried out cheap burn like Roast and Lightning Axe from an earlier suggestion, but found that it made Nahiri's Wrath much weaker and therefore harder to one-shot an opponent. I think Skred might end up the same way, but there's enough damage potential here for me to give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestion Icbrgr =).

Maybe switching to Snow-Covered Mountains and pair with Skred?

While an objectively not great card, Skred would be a very flavorful inclusion given the deck's name.

Looks solid. Skred is another great choice as a more potent form of creature removal, just in case something with a higher toughness manages to find its way into play. Just replace your mountains with the snow-covered variety and you’re good to go.

The deck looks like an ultra-budget version of skred-red dragons. So, the upgrade path becomes fairly clear in that case:

• start replacing your existing damage spells with better versions, like Lightning Bolt , Skred , Anger of the Gods .

• make your mountains snow mountains (for Skred )

• aim to add Sarkhan, Fireblood for ramp & hand fixing, and Chandra, Torch of Defiance for value.

• your land destruction becomes Blood Moon

• aim to upgrade your dragons, and run around 6-9 dragon cards. Glorybringer is great in this deck
