Hopefully Improving —March 6, 2012
I had some experiences at a recent FNM that showed me the weaknesses I have against UB Zombies and Birthing Pod. I've changed up the sideboard a bit and also replaced Incinerate with Volt Charge. I'm looking forward to the next chance I get to play.

Another consideration is Brimstone Volley in place of the Incinerates. Personally, I would run 2 Volley, 2 Charge. Also, what are the Kessig Wolf Run's for?
Good deck, +1.

Also, hardly anyone plays Mono-Red anymore, so Vulshok Refugee isn't that great in a sideboard. Maybe exchange them for 2 Combust and 2 Grafdigger's Cage?

Since casting Volt Charge with a Shrine ready is technically always worth 5 damage, I think I'll just go with a set when I sit down to update this.
Kessig Wolf Run is for the late game, after everything is under control, when I can go ahead and get the game finished with a few swings from an 8/4 animated Mountain.
I know there was one other mono-red deck at Game Day, and I saw at least 2 at the last FNM, so Vulshok Refugee is going to stay for now, especially because once I learn how to sideboard this deck properly it might also end up being useful against Wolf Run Ramp.
Thanks for the comments, man. I appreciate it.

That makes sense. I still think that Grafdigger's Cage would be really good, I just don't know what to take out.

If I played the Cage, it would probably be in place of Surgical Extraction, but being able to see the opponent's hand turned out to be super important in one round at the last FNM I went to, so I don't know either.

I've really been looking at your deck, a lot a few minutes every time someone comments and I have come to the conclusion that 4xVolt Charge
would be so much better for this deck than the 4xIncinerate
s that you have now they would pump up both your Sphere of the Suns
' and the Shrine of Burning Rage
's.
