Volcanic Salvo

Sorcery

This spell X less to cast, where X is the total power of creatures you control.

Volcanic Salve deals 6 damage to each of up to two target creatures and/or planeswalkers.

Okay, so the infect is practically gone from this deck, and with it go most the artifacts that can't be used for the red free spells. I sill have the Inkmoths because I think they're good for my turn 2 consistency with the built in evasion, but Pact of the Titan giving me the 4/4 for free should step things up a bit, and the 4/4 body made me look back to the comment klone13 to go for a bigger shoal bonus, and taking the biggest one I could find in Volcanic Salvo puts me in a position where if I'm on the draw the 4/4 titan can swing pretty reasonably for 20 outright. Another newer haste enabler in Samut's Sprint was added to help with hopefully getting it off the ground since infect is now more of an alt wincon. Pulled Red Elemental Blast out of the sideboard since the deck cant afford the mana opting for Pact of Negation instead, I can't pay the cost but if the deck is working right, even if I have to delay a turn, I shouldn't be worried about having to pay the cost, either I win when I'm playing the cards or I have already lost.

Blazing Shoal and Shining Shoal would be cool tech for this strategy.

As for cuts:

Volcanic Salvo big CMC is useful but the card is lackluster. Greater Gargadon and Heroes Remembered are at least neat exile tech (especially with the Shoals I just suggested)

Emeria's Call  Flip the tokens are useless to this strategy and there are cheaper ways to grant indestructible.

Loxodon Warhammer and Maul of the Skyclaves for the 2 Swords I suggested. All your other equipment serve a clear purpose.

Steel Seraph is this just swiss army knife value? Angelfire Ignition at least exiles for a trigger. I'd swap Semblance Anvil for the Seraph unless I'm missing something.

Torbran, Thane of Red Fell great card but I don't see it as being degenerate in this strategy. Jester's Cap can ruin the combo opponent or at the very least use other people's high CMC to feed Bell Borca.

Winds of Abandon > Contraband Livestock

SacredAtsira, I'd cut Share the Spoils as it offers an advantage for your opponent(s).

Volcanic Salvo is a cute card but for that mana value I'd prefer a game ending or totally field warping.

Surge to Victory is a double edged sword. If your creatures get ran into a Fog you lost your spell. Even if there is no fog effect if the creatures get blocked by 0/1 tokens you're in the same position. I don't see a lot of ways for you to force damage through.

Cards to consider:

Experimental Overload, Explosive Singularity, Flamespeaker Adept, Goblin Electromancer, Temporal Trespass, Time Stretch and Volcanic Salvo.

I'm especially gonna insist on Flamespeaker Adept because of all the Scry you'll have going on. Temporal Trespass is doable because of all the permanent spells currently in your deck. I hope this helps. Happy Hunting!

Well you cannot play Footlight Fiend because its black also. I would suggest taking out Volcanic Salvo for Blasphemous Act . Also, I would take out Double Vision because you do not have that many sorceries and instants. I would suggest adding Expansion / Explosion and using that with Wilderness Reclamation to close out the game. You probably should put more ramp cards in because Riku of Two Reflections uses a lot of mana.

3> Ahhh I've been wanting to play with Obosh, the Preypiercer and Angrath's Marauders - glad you found a spot for them. While you're at it, you could also consider other "damage doublers" such as Wound Reflection and Fiendish Duo. I've thought about a Vial-Smasher deck with a White partner just to add Gisela, Blade of Goldnight.

3> I see you enjoy big monsters and X-spells here. Oh to be young again... but seriously, this seems like a good deck to play them in as you would be rewarded. Instants are your friend, as you can Smash Vials on everyone's turn! No Comet Storm?

3> I would be worried about Vial-Smasher getting nuked from orbit as soon as your turn passes and it's no longer indestructible. You'll find Heroic Intervention and Slippery Bogbonder will help with targeted Exile removal. You already have Destroy and Sacrifice covered I see.

3> I see some cost-reduced and commander-free spells in there, but you have a limited suite. While doing research for my thoughts on Vial-Smasher, I found the following might be helpful - list is just copy/paste, so it will include some White and/or Blue cards:
