Deck discussion for Earth & Fire

For a first deck this isn't bad.
Some suggestions:
1 Keep your deck to about 60-65 cards Max.
2 The more copies of a card, the more likely you will draw it, it is very difficult to run a deck strategy when there is only 1 copy of a key element
3 Utilize the sideboard for protection from different types of decks, so you don't have to worry about it maindeck
4 Figure out a main strategy that the deck should exhibit, examples: aggro, storm, mill, counter, prot and utilize those cards that work best together for that strategy.
5 Deck efficiency is an important aspect to any deck, basically how often can you win your best way and play everything even though you draw different cards each time. Dual lands can help this out A LOT since that way you are less likely to get stuck with all one mana color. Overall deck mana cost is very important too, the lower the mana cost the faster the deck. and speed is everything.

This (obviously) looks like an aggro deck, so take the best aggro cards you have and increase the number and decrease the numbers of the others. Example: Boggart Ram Gang = Great for aggro, Prismatic omen = not necessary since you are only playing 2 colors and inefficient compared to dual lands since lands cost nothing and the omen costs 2.
Figure it out as you play the deck. See which cards you think "COME ON COME ON" about and which ones you think "OH NO NOT THIS ONE" about. Increase the number of the former and decrease the number of the latter.
