Deck discussion for Mountain based destruction

Nice concept! However, I think you could use some methods of getting in lands faster and perhaps some burn for removal? The enchantments you have work very well as defense, but not against flyers or unblockables, for example. And especially with Koth's abilities and Spire Barrage, getting in lands faster makes you last longer against aggro as well.

I have a similar deck, although far more creature based. I use Wayfarer's Bauble and Geosurge and the likes to get my creatures out faster (a turn 3 Deus of Calamity hurts! :p) and make my mountain-based burn spells hurt more. Have a look-see (http://www.mtgvault.com/spiffmeister/decks/koth-burn-crush-thingy/). I might end up stealing your idea of using Genju of the Spires though :p

Thanks, I added Burnished Hart for both defence and ramp

Awesome! That should make a difference I think. Have you playtested the deck yet by any chance?

I like your deck quite a lot, the lots of creatures and land destruction make for an effective form of control alongside the burn, it does quite fun

Thanks! I've been working on it for months, getting the balance right. The low mana cost creatures remain effective later in the game as well, and everything else just gets more badass. I'm still considering tossing something out for more mana though, because that can be an issue sometimes. But it's one of my favorite decks to play because of the concept, it's rather original. That's what drew me to your deck as well.
