Purphoros is a really strong choice for a commander. Personally I would take advantage of his ability by running more token generating cards. These would be my swaps:

Flame Spill -> Elemental Mastery
Expedition Map -> Mind Stone (Mind Stone gets Purphoros out faster)
Archwing Dragon -> Chancellor of the Forge
Red Elemental Blast -> Firecat Blitz
Drakuseth, Maw of Flames -> Neheb, the Eternal
Bombard -> Tempt with Vengeance
Dragon's Approach -> Thatcher Revolt
Moltne Influence -> Rally the Horde
Lambholt Raconteur -> Tilonalli's Summoner
Arclight Phoenix -> Warchief Giant
Greater Gargadon -> Norin the Wary
Fling -> Hordeling Outburst
Staggershock -> Mogg War Marshal
Captivating Crew -> Grinning Ignus
Bloodsworn Steward -> Torbran, Thane of Red Fell
Cleansing Screech -> Panharmonicon

I agree about Cavalcade, i had more cards for it, but slowly swapped away from those. Things like Goblinslide and Thatcher Revolt . Grim Initiate just seemed like a good 1 drop, and with first strike, it can get stronger in late game as well with Torbran. The Amass was just a random side effect, and it doesn't go with the theme, but it isn't bad.

So I saw your post and to "Splash" a color isn't really that hard. You just insert the cards of said color that you want to play, taking out the cards that you aren't going to play anymore, and voila, you just splashed a color. Basically, it is just making a modification to your deck, but you have to fix your mana base afterwards. For example, you could replace Thatcher Revolt with Collected Company and technically you just splashed Green, admittedly a very small amount.

I also forgot to mention Hardened Scales in the last comment. In this case, splashing Green can be pricy if you splash Collected Company or Noble Hierarch but Hardened Scales is quite budget friendly.

I did playtest with Alesha for a while, but found that she was a bit slow and not all that useful; I rarely end up putting creatures other than Valor and the Dearly Departed in my graveyard, because the excess discard is usually just lands, which I only need a few of anyway - there usually wasn't anything for her to return from the graveyard.

I also ran Thatcher Revolt in this deck for quite a while, but eventually took it out because it seemed like a bad deal - why pay one mana per token that I have to sacrifice at the end of the turn, when I can pay the same rate with Gather the Townsfolk for tokens that stay on the battlefield (plus the fact that Gather the Townsfolk works better with my curve)?

I do see where you're coming from vis-a-vis the removal, but in my meta Path is very much worthwhile (a few too many Phyrexian Obliterators crawling around, among other things).

Can I suggest Alesha, Who Smiles at Death as another way to synergise with cards that fill your graveyard, as well as recurring your creatures who died? Additionally, it works well with Avalanche Riders (from the sideboard) as a recurring land destruction strategy.

Thatcher Revolt is also a sneaky way to close out the game - you can consider it together with or instead of Gather the Townsfolk.

As for removal, I would personally go with more Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix than Path to Exile. The rationale is that they offer direct damage that would help you close the game out (since you are most likely the aggro deck). But of course I understand that Path hits everything and is a cleaner answer.

ay.lobo Then i think im going to try Quest for Pure Flame instead of Thatcher Revolt and see how it goes.

I wouldnt include Mana Echoes because i already have Neheb, the Eternal in my deck which has a similar effect but i consider neheb's effect better because it gives you specific red mana and if you are playing against 3 people just by casting him it gives you 6 red mana and if he stays on board you will just explode with red mana.

ay.lobo I've changed Goblin Offensive for Magus of the Wheel because having another wheel effect proved to be really strong, but im still thinking about changing Thatcher Revolt for Magus of the Moon because it takes out the value of my land cards like Ancient Tomb or Boseiju, Who Shelters All. So yeah the tokens don't stay on board but at least i deal 6 damage - 9 with impact tremors - 12 with panharmonicon- +3 extra damage if they attack and i could also sacrifice them or use Skullclamp on them for draw or even i could Divergent Transformations 2 of the tokens to get more creatures out or i could use Descent of the Dragons or Mogg Infestation on them.
