Deck discussion for Burn

Nice deck. I'm not sure you really need the mana ramps, theres nothing in there with high mana costs, just my opinion of course. Check out my burn deck:

Thanks for the comment. I plan to take a look at your's in a little well and I'll leave some thoughts as well. I have another more balanced burn deck that I'll post later.

If you really want to play some creatures I would use "Spark Elemental", Vexing Devil" or "Hellspark Elemental".
Furthermore you want to get down your enemy as fast as possible, and not waste spells on his creatures. Thus, I would change "Fiery Conclusion" for "Magma Jet" (Which also allows you to see and select the next 2 cards you draw, or you don't want draw) and pherhaps "Shrapnel Blast" for something like "Shard Volley" or "Rift Bolt".
If you really need to remove an enemy (utility) creature, try "Forked Bolt"

Those cards fit much better with my elemental deck which is yet to be posted. This deck is strictly burn out quick as possible, but a good suggestion and a deck I have made and plan to post later. I have 160 deck made on magic workstation and plan to post all of them in time so keep tuned.

The question is, if you want to get your 160 decks working or just posted ;)
I personally see a 3/1 with trample, which has to be sacrificed on end of turn not so much as creature but more as a sorcery which removes (potentially) 3 more valuable health points from my enemy.

I don't meant to question his deck building capabilitys or his ideas, I hope nobody thought that. The deck will work, no question. :)
The only thing i wantet to say is, that in a normal burn deck you look more to diminish your enemy's life rather than kill his creatures, or guard your own life.

I took no offence to your comment. I only meant to say that your recommendations would change the style I tended for this deck, therefore worked better in another deck with a different style. I greatly appreciate your comments and hope you continue to share them with me.

After concerning what you said, I decided to exchange "Fiery Conclusion" with "Reckless Abandon" because I believe the premise of your suggestion was spot on for improving the deck's effectiveness.

I have added you as a friend and I hope you will consider doing the same.
