Does this deck seem to have competitive potential for anything on the level of Friday Night Magic or higher?

Around here, FNM is pretty gaudy in general with typical blue or black devotion running right now. The Red Devotion is quite powerful yet has no control except sorcerey to creature damage. With the flood of bounces and exiles and counters blue runs in a standard deck right now - or the creature control of black for that matter - red barely stands a chance with letting the opponent control the rate at which your devotion rises to fruition. So, the spells in this deck are to add stability to the crushing ending of a red devotion deck win while holding multiple purposes each. There are three methods in the deck of navigating through control type atmospheres. The first is the Boros Charm with the indestructable on all permanents. Holding off your current devotion level for one more turn can be a game changer. The second is the damage amount of Aurelia's Fury with the Nyx devo-mana tap. This is a finisher. The damage distribution is also important, this is the best of red and white all on one card. Also, tapping creatures and/or removing the ability of an opponent to play noncreature spells really gives the Red the upper hand it needs to slam the hammer down. The last is perhaps the most useful, and interesting combo for the devotion - mainly because of the Red devotion being able to dodge full-on board clears and the possibility of turn 4 hitting them with a Fanatic just to exile all creatures; then return them at the beginning of your opponents combat phase which will happen whether or not he or she decides to attack this is also fairly awesome when a Purphorous is exiled and brought back. There are a plethora of 3 and 4 turn wins, and the rock behind red devotion that is Boros with the sideboarded Gift of Immortality just in case your opponent likes to play a mid or long range Aggro. Overall, this is a Red Devotion Deck given a slight amount of control and a large amount of agility to brush by your Blue Devotion arch Enemies.
