Deck Description

My take on Blue/red pyromancer ascension deck. It's pretty fun.

I see your heading for blue spells more than red. Use a few more red spells! Incinerate and Staggershock would be good cards. As Incinerate does 3 damage for two mana. Staggershock does 2 damage for 3 mana but it also has rebound. If played correctly with the acension, you would do 8 damage over the course of two turns, which isn't too shabby. Also, use Counterspell in place of Arcane Denial.

Arcane denial is better then counterspell by far in a 2 color combo deck.

I agree with Setherial that in this situation arcane denial is better than counter spell for the fact that once I charge pyromancer I can counter my own spells and draw a ton of cards, but I also agree with you Tim about having more red. As it stands now, my deck sits back and controls until I'm able to loop lightning bolt for the kill. I was thinking of perhaps adding Manamorphos and Elemental Appeal as alternate win condition but I'm unsure of what to trade for those cards.
