I've been working on this for a while, and I've been looking to make it a bit faster. I seem to have a problem with finding my happy medium of land, and generally making it faster and more effective. I feel like I'm missing something, either creature, or otherwise. Please help! deck:more-fire

Le Burn decks from mtgtop8.com
Yours has some poor card choices and some cards that cost too much for an aggressive burn deck. 16 lands is far too little, and I'd recommend 20. If you want to play Grim Lavamancer , red fetchlands a la Wooded Foothills and Bloodstained Mire will be necessary.

Yeah, I was thinking about the fetchlands thing, Glistener. I wasn't sure about the firebird, and reduced it from a playset of 4, to 2. And the planeswalker I'm not so sure of. The main prohibitive thing is the cost of the fetchlands, but all costs aside, what would be a list of cards you'd consider substituting/cutting or others?

I'm busy, so this may be missing some things. You can just look at the lists and choose the cards you like best. The goal is to have as low a curve as possible to kill them really fast.
Lightning Strike and Searing Spear are bad cards. Searing Blaze should almost certainly be in your deck, and I'd ask a Burn expert what else to add. quesobueno123 is someone that I can think of off the top of my head.

I hate it when I do that. Why is it that the formatting just refuses to for me? Am I just dumb?
