One, he has Invisible Stalker to help with removal. Two, from what I've play tested, the unblockable creatures are always on offense. And three, you want him to sacrifice two power between Giant Growth and Phytoburst just INCASE his opponent is running burn spells? Isn't that what a sideboard is for?

*There is no reason*
This focuses on unblockable creatures. The entire purpose of the pumping spells is to stack up more damage. The is no reason for it to be an instant in this deck.
Why not add Phytoburst in place of Titanic Growth?
The Rush of Blood, Reverb and Fling combo is awesome, but is it necessary against one opponent? I could see it being very useful in multiplayer matches. And i mean VERY useful. The only real problem is that Rush of Blood acts like another Reverberate or Increasing Vengeance when you already have enough. From my point of view, it seems like you are missing another card with a Fling like effect.
Correct.
He is what i hate about parts of the Magic: the Gathering community. Especially on Mtgvault.
To quote myself, "It seems to me that the majority of the instants and sorceries you have are all there for the same purpose, and that is to Fling and copy. Once you are doing that you should be going for a kill, aren't you? So wouldn't Guttersnipe just add more damage than is needed?" Im not saying Guttersnipe is bad, Im just not sure if it is necessary.
Even better!
There are a lack of early plays.
The description is slightly misleading. He says that Flinging the Ancient is ideal, but not necessary. Dragon Hatchling, Dragon Egg and Furnace Whelp can swing for serious damage. Also, it would be great if we had a third party give input into whether or not Guttersnipe fits in the deck.
How does Deathrite Shaman remove Emrakul, the Aeons Torn?
So you are saying that a sliver deck must use NOTHING but slivers? Seriously?
It seems to me that the majority of the instants and sorceries you have are all there for the same purpose, and that is to Fling and copy. Once you are doing that you should be going for a kill, aren't you? So wouldn't Guttersnipe just add more damage than is needed?
I think we all do. Glad I could actually help.
Ha ha! I hate when that happens.
Why is everyone calling it Skullcrank? It's Skullcrack.
If you are fine with discarding then Wild Guess and Reforge the soul could be useful.
Thanks.
The only true problem i see with this deck is that you rely on getting four cards which can be hard, especially in a mono red deck. Since red doesn't have much card draw (without discarding) so it is best to just expand your options.Rubblebelt Maaka! I know it sounds stupid to add, but hear me out. Rubblebelt Maaka's bloodrush ability can be used as an alternative to Curse of Bloodletting. If you have five lands out then you can attack with your giant, Bloodrush Rubblebelt maaka onto him (making him a ten powered creature) and continue to Fling and Reverberate for a kill. This also works as an Alternative to either of your copying spells.Now this doesn't really help your deck out that much, but it can be really fun! Depending on if the deck you are playing against uses large creatures as well, you could use items like Act of Treason and then Fling their own creature at them.I always hate when people tell you what to add in without telling you what to take out, and without thinking about how those changes could effect how the deck plays. So i kinda hate how Im doing that to you right now, but I am honestly not sure what to take out or how any of this will effect the deck. My apologies.I know this may not be a big help, but it was all I could scrounge up at this moment. Let me know if you need help on anything in specific.
