Deck discussion for burn tha muthaphucka

Tormod's crypt is a sideboard card, and so is grafdigger's cage. There are other things you could replace crypt with to fill the function of 0 cost artifact, ornithopter being the first example that comes to mind. Devil is an infinitely better mainboard than cage, on account of it being totally and utterly broken. If you're truly so desperate to shut down graveborn decks, add a leyline of the void and mill until you get it. Underhanded, but effective. Other than that looks good.

tormod's and grafdigger's are mainly in there as artifact sacs for kuldotha and numbers for galvanic, but i agree on vexing being a main deck card. realistically a 1 drop for 4 damage to opponent. this deck is obviously not designed to control/shut down any other decks as its mainly designed for the quick kill. the idea is to let thru opponent attacks inside turn 5 to hopefully set up the win within that time thru burn/burn at the stake

There are still some better cards, again orni comes to mind, as well as a myr (whose name I'm forgetting at the moment, sorry) which makes a token when it dies, making it effective for two sacs. Basically, with some research you can find equally cheap cards which will be better than the ones there.

the main thing with this deck was something uber quick and easy but also for the budget deck player. while there is a little money in the sideboard, i was looking at keeping the mainboard as cheap as possible while keeping its effectiveness at a certain level.

Another thing which I just realized is that your wincon is based on tapping creatures, however there are only 10 in the deck. To win purely with the stake, you need 7, and even if you deal some damage before then, as you probably will, you could very well not have enough creatures when the time comes to cast. That's another reason the other suggested artifact creatures are better for this deck, as they can help both your wincon and reaching your wincon.
