Keeping the simple red spells theme alive with Pyrokinesis and Cave-In, but replacing Blazing Shoal with Gamble. I feel like Gamble will have a bigger impact on the game, only costing 1 mana, and allowing me to search for anything. There's typically a lot to discard as well, with either the creatures that go back into my library, or cards that want to be in the graveyard like Rite of Flame or Faithless Looting. Plus, Blazing Shoal depends on too many other factors to be useful in this deck, whereas Gamble is always useful, and can always just be discarded for Faithless Looting or Pyrokinesis if I don't to take the risk. Finally, even if I don't want Gamble mainboard, I can always put it into the sideboard and get it with Burning Wish if I change my mind.
