Deck discussion for Boros Burn

This looks like a very risky suicide deck. It looks doable, except for the mana. Your fetch lands are bizarre. You have 6 lands that cost you life to fetch on of your 3 basic lands (mountain). Those fetch lands should be replaced with mountains, since that's the only thing they can fetch.

6 fetch lands and 5 targets is a pretty normal ratio I think. No complains here. With burn, life loss won't be an issue at all, you will always be ahead of your opponents

I recognize this as an efficient return to an older brew style, with some well considered changes to the list.
This is very likely pro quality.

One interesting aspect is the way this deck gambles against bloodmoon.

It only loses its carddraw and 6 cards if encountering bloodmoon.

Since bloodmoon is cut from the deck, this is relying on a gameplan where it doesn't meet bloodmoon.

The gamble is that this deck will lose when facing other burn with blood moon.

So I guess this is a meta call.

Nonsense, its just the same burn as always. They rarely play moon

A few does, which is why it makes sense as a metacall.
Theres always a few who goes against the mainstream.
Preying on other burn players is an easy win but will collapse the whole thing with infighting, which might be why burn is currently without a bloodmoon.
It's not as if burn couldn't need the moon in a meta full of Urza's saga.

At least give credit to the sideboard.

There is alpine moon for 1 mana if you really want to.

Alpine moon is cool, I consider it one of the better "naming" cards in recent time.
I'd love to make a "name" lockdown deck some day.
