Deck Description

~Magma jet is back with theros, which is why its in there.
~I'm currently play testing this deck, and I'm thinking of removing the Young Pyromancer for another burn spell. I originally figured he'd be good for defense with the elementals generating, but the point of the deck is to speed them down.
~I Sideboard blind obedience for when against either selesnya or some other form of creature aggro. Skullcrack for against life gain, the rackdos charm is very situational. I mostly put it in if the opponent generates a lot of creatures, but I also think we might see reanimator decks with Theros coming out.
~hopefully we will see some other good burn spells with Theros.
~Tips and Advice are appreciated.

How to Play

~basically just keep at the opponents' life total with burn spells. Use on creatures if their dangerous, but overall just rush their life.
~Obviously don't be suicidal, but don't be afraid to take a bit of damage from creatures, just rush their life. It is a RDW type of deck.
~ideal opening hand has at least 3 mana (1 of each color), but I've kept a 2 mana hand with some nice burn spells like shock+boros charm, and then drew into more mana for warleader's helix etc.

Deck discussion for Burnt to a crisp - theros

Nice, you have boros charm to protect your guttersnipe and pyromancer, but when theros comes out i recommend (if you are lucky enough to pull them, or have enough money to just buy them) thoughtseize, make sure there arent any exiling spells or counters or anything you rough coming.

Yea I'd consider sideboarding thoughtseize. But in general it's not a speedy burn spell.
