Deck Description

The concept of a burn deck has fascinated me for years. It is so brutal, yet simple. This is the deck I currently run in casual play, and everyone hates it. They call it the "Red Menace."

I designed this deck to play on, at any given time, three or less mana in play, (save "Thunderous Wrath, but you're going for the miracle cost on that one) so the mana curve is extremely low. It is not creature heavy, and depending on what deck you are facing, this can be either good or bad. It works well against those pesky infect decks! It's a straight-forward, in your face, direct damage deck that doesn't require tricky combos to pull a win out. I've played with this deck for over a year now, give or take a few minor tweaks, and the win percentage of this deck in casual play is easily 60%, and that is probably under-guessing.

My sideboard is always changing, but I usually go with what is posted, give or take.

You can comment if you like, but I'm really just sharing my build for those looking for a solid burn build.

Deck discussion for Fire Hurts

I have alway been a big fan of burn decks. They are simple yet straight to the point. My burn decks were always based on fast creatures. Take a look maybe you could offer up some advise for me.

I've seen few burn decks that are this good that is this cheap. It might be obvious to ask, but is it Legacy?

Good deck by the way. Any ideas for a goblin deck with burn as well?

Let me know if there is a standard version of this, or if you have a standard version of this.

@Argentdawn, I do have a goblin deck, but nothing that is both gobby and burn. I am sure there is a deck on here that is like that though.
