Deck Description

This a fun burn deck that has water elements included. Inspiration from the hallelujah deck.

EDIT:: Thinking of using Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius, Blistercoil Weird and Ash Zealot when Ravinca comes out. :D With Izzet Keyrune replacing Gilded Lotus. Put a couple of Goblin Electromancers in the side deck.

Deck discussion for Don't Throw Water on the Fire!!!

It's fun to go RU miracle (miRUcle).

but i think you should be careful about Devestation Tide, it seems you don't want to bounce your own creatures. think about Cyclonic Rift in RTR, with overload.
also Burning Vengeance looks to weak for this deck; you cast very few spells from the graveyard, only think twice and past in flames have flashback, and you don't play snapcaster

And I am sceptical about only 18 lands. I know this deck can win in the early/mid game, but if you don't get your land, you need to be able to hardcast your miracles.
Hallelujah had 27 lands and I'm playing 26 in my MiRUcle deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=386886)

then again this is just what i think, i havent playtested the deck, i might just work very good.

I'm not too familiar with Miracle decks, but there are some cards that I think can be replaced (you already mentioned guilded lotus).
skirsdag cultist: This isn't a creature heavy deck, so you would be reluctant to use it's ability.

mondronen shaman: This card lacks synergy with your deck since most of your spells are sorcery speed. You would have to skip a turn before you let it flip, giving you a disadvantage.

Tandem lookout: You already have curiosity, that would be to much focus in trying to draw cards.

scalding devil: This card doesn't help your deck, it lacks synergy with your other spells

past in flames: It's too expensive to play since you would have the pay the full cmc for your miracle spells.

mad prophet: He's too pricy for a draw/discard effect

Think twice: having a 4 of is a bit much for a deck like this

Cards to consider
Delver (Cliche I know): a one drop that can become a 3/2 flyer is always good since you're focusing on a spell heavy deck

invisible stalker: Works great with curiosity (or tandem lookout if you want to keep it), however this combo doesn't work well with miracle since it''ll be the second card.

Faithless looting: a good card since you wanted a creature that had this ability, plus the flashback is cheap too.

Dungeon geist: good for control and attacking

Those are a few cards I would consider for this deck. Also I would suggest you raise your land count to 22 at least, 18 lands is usually for decks that don't want to go past 4 lands and control usually need more lands.

If you have a moment to look at my standard rug and boros deck, i'd appreciate it.
