This looks like a lot of fun to play. +1

How about adding Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle or Shivan Gorge? It may not trigger all that often, but they could throw around meaningful damage.

Combustible Gearhulk and Browbeat aren't always reliable card advantage, but can be fun to give the opponents some choice.

I see that you are playing the bouncelands. They can have some great synergy with the mdfc cards; Spikefield Hazard  ^Flip for a point of damage and Valakut Awakening  ^Flip for draw, can be great additions. Surveyor's Scope is a great ramp piece to run along these lands, too.

Oh, and Heartless Hidetsugu if you want a bomb at the end of your curve.

Mono-red EDH decks do well to have Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle in it.

With a heavy Mountain population, you may want to consider Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle.

Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle is awesome, but what is the appeal of Sandstone Needle?

This was also when I started digging into the game. For the full list, it's

• 8th Edition

• Mirrodin Block

• Kamigawa Block

• 9th Edition

• Ravnica Block

• Coldsnap

• Time Spiral Block

• 10th Edition

• Lorwyn/Shadowmoor Block

• Alara Block

• Magic 2010

• Zendikar Block

• Magic 2011

• Scars of Mirrodin Block

• Magic 2012

• Innistrad Block (introduction of Modern format)

• Magic 2013

The initial Modern banlist was Ancestral Vision, Ancient Den, Bitterblossom, Chrome MoxGC, Dark Depths, Dread Return, Glimpse of Nature, Golgari Grave-Troll, Great Furnace, Hypergenesis, Jace, the Mind Sculptor, Mental Misstep, Seat of the Synod, Sensei's Divining Top, Skullclamp, Stoneforge Mystic, Sword of the Meek, Tree of Tales, Umezawa's Jitte, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, and Vault of Whispers.

Possible archetypes that I can see are Cawblade, Splinter Twin, Infect, Bloom Titan, Burn, Living End, Jund Midrange, Zoo, 12 Post, basically all the stuff that was popular in the first few years of Modern.
