Should I run Keranos in a Prowess deck?

Deck Help forum

In my deck Izzet an Instant??? I am running 4 copies of Keranos, God of Storms mainboard. Is this the ok? or is their better cards that could be helping the deck more? The deck is focused around filtering/drawing cards and triggering prowess to win quickly. Any suggestions are welcome.

I wouldn't ruin 4 as its a legendary I'd try to cut it down by 2. Plus he's a5 drop if you want to win quickly you should be winning turn 4-5 at the latest

Thank you, everyone for helping out. I have decided to take out 3 copies of Keranos, God of Storms and replace him with 3 copies of Guttersnipe. I believe this will serve the same purpose of destroying the opponent's life total without spending as much mana. As to any question is why I am not taking out all four I still love Keranos, God of Storms as a card and couldn't bring myself to take him out of the deck completely (also I own a copy).

I seriously wouldn't run any. You're basically playing this deck:

Kiln Fiend Aggro

You can swap out the Thing in the Ice  Flip for Stormchaser Mage, although it's a really easy flip.

You can also splash black for Tainted Strike, although you need fetch lands and shocks in order to do so. It can be done relying solely on Manamorphose, but it's not as consistent. The benefit is that you can kill people on turn 2 or 3, especially with Simian Spirit Guides.
