Deck Description

The entire purpose for this deck is to win using the Twin Flame and Fanatic of Mogis combo, which means you wanna keep as much devotion alive as possible on the board (don't risk swinging if they have any combat tricks available and rely on the cheap mana curve to keep up with all of your opponents removal, as after game 1, they will realize the fastest way to beat this deck is instant speed removal.
The other two ways are to uptick Chandra and keep swinging for Stormbreath Dragon unblocked damage.

How to Play

Deck Combo's to look out for:

Burning-Tree Emissary(BTE), Twinflame(TF):
This combo is what makes this deck faster than any other I have constructed. Play BTE get RG in the mana pool, use that mana to get play either a second BTE or TF on the BTE. Since there are 4 TFs and 4 BTE, it is likely you will receive either two BTEs or a BTE and TF.

DROP FANTATIC WHEN YOU CAN!!!!
If you have a Fanatic of Mogis, FoM, in your hand and you can play him. Do it. Even for that quick 3-5 damage. The quick damage will instantly put most players on the defensive and worried. Also instead of waiting for the TF+FoM combo turn six, you can drop FoM for four and use the strive cost on TF to give yourself a couple more devotion and another FoM token. This is even more powerful than that turn five Stormbreath! Because you know those two tokens are being exiled at the end of turn you can full swing and most likely take out a couple of their creatures at no expense to your future turn devotion.

Boros Reckoner (BR) + Dictate of the Twin Gods (DotTG)
All you haters betta listen good DotTG is a win condition. Period.
This is your answer to ALLLLLLL aggro decks. All of them. If you can execute this amazingly simple combo, you can do 12, 16, or 20 damage to their face and watch them cry. The trick is to when the damage doubles. Say my opponent has a polyk or any 5/5 on the field, if they end up trading damage I would usually only be able to take the five being dealt to BR and shoot something else down with it (usually said polyk). HOWEVER with DotTG, I can flash it in before damage is dealt, which means PolyK does 10 damage(5 dmg doubled) to BR and then BR does 10 damage doubled (20 damage) to any PLAYER or creature. Game.

DotTG is great for this deck no matter what since you can flash it in at the end of your opponents turn in prep for the incredibly explosive turns this deck has post turn 4. Even if its just a quick 8 damage to target player with one Boros charm.
