I get all that, but my main concern is what would I replace with these cards? I feel like all the cards I currently have in the deck are pretty good, so I'm just wondering what I should take out to make room for those.

Can do. I was drawing sample hands on the site, and I was noticing a lot of land draw, so that's why I decided to remove an extra land. But if you feel like it won't be consistent enough, I can add it again.

Also, what are your thoughts on Ash Zealot for flashback hate?

Got it. I feel like Skewer the Critics is like a slightly slower Lightning Bolt, which remains the most efficient burn spell in the game, and it has a CMC of 3 so it's a decent counter to a Chalice, but I could be wrong. I took out a Firewalker and added a Chewer for a little more protection from the Chalices and some Spellskite removal as well. For the mainboard otherwise, I'm just wondering if I should add any more Angel's Grace or if just one is okay.

Nice explanation, thanks for the clarification.

Oh my word, I had no idea what you were asking, but now that I do, I think that the only decks that play it consistently are tron decks so they can counter the moderate to high CMC wincons of other decks, and while tron is pretty high up on the popularity list, it isn't the highest. As far as Ingot Chewer, I think it's honestly a good idea and an unexpected twist for my opponents. Since artifacts make up significantly more of the meta than enchantments do, it might be a better option, also for the Chalice counter idea. For the extra Rift Bolt to add, what should I take out for it?

I'm not sure I understand the question... but I do know that Chalice of the Void is almost nonexistent in burn currently, which would make it that much more unpredictable. However, it is really expensive, and a playset is about $100 used, so that's a little cause for concern, as well as having to replace something currently in the deck with it, and the moderately high mana cost for real use. All I'm saying is I'm not so sure how effective it would be. About Angel's Grace, however, I might add a couple more to the deck just for that cause, and because it's a fantastic card, maybe replacing the Rift Bolts. What do you think?

Given that combo decks only make up about 25% of the current meta, I'm actually going to sideboard 2 of them and mainboard Angel's Grace because it really can change the course of the game in seconds.

I don't know, but I feel like running 17 removal enchantments may be a little much. Obviously, the main wincon is to attack with Setessan and Starfield, which are powered up by simply playing enchantments, but I feel like there are other enchantment options than quite so much removal. But that might just be me, I don't know. Otherwise, I love the idea!

It totally is! It gives you massive damage and it only costs 2 and a turn or two of spell casting. To be honest, I think it would be well-suited in nearly any burn deck in modern and could be competitive.

Oh, thank you so much. I definitely needed some advice for going pro, because to be honest, I had almost no idea. So what I'm thinking about eventually doing now is like you said, build a second deck so I become less predictable and marketing goes up and everything you said, (I'm thinking another semi-cheap deck for that so I don't break the bank entirely, like red deck wins or tron or something [red is my favorite color]) and I might also add some lifegain hate to this deck as well.

Now that you say that, I think I'm gonna board one of the Eidolons because there are still a plethora of combo decks in modern, but there is also currently a lot of aggro.

Interesting idea... I might just try that.

Fantastic show, anyone who hasn't seen it needs to go binge it now over quarantine while they have a chance.

It is definitely an idea, and it would provide a significant amount of card advantage, but personally for me, when I build a deck around a non-wincon combo like that, I often forget to add a wincon, which is a problem.

I dropped the Acolyte because it doesn't add all that much to the devotion count and costs 4, and I thought I already had enough creature mana ramp in the deck because the majority of the cards in this deck really don't cost as much as they seem like they do. As far as Packleader and Force go, I might add Force of them in place of something like Cloudthresher for some draw, but I think the Packleader might not work as well for a number of reasons, the first of which being he only adds one green to the devotion.
