Needs more Outpost Siege.
To be honest I think these top 8 decks are pretty far away from what we'll see at the Pro Tour. I see a lot of suboptimal choices and not a lot of innovation. As maligned as DTK is, I actually feel like the set will have a major impact on the meta, especially the red cards. Ire Shaman in particular is a card I think a lot of people are sleeping on and I've even gone deep on the card as a spec.
I think the best way to approach RW right now is a Ben Stark list now that we have access to so many mana efficient spells. I've been wondering if Myth Realized belongs in the deck. I was initially low on the card and to an extent I still am. A lot of people have been talking about it for control decks but I think it actually belongs in RW.

If I wanted to go that deep I'd run four Outpost and one Chandra.
Ari Lax posted a video series of RW on the premium side today. One of the rounds was against Abzan control and he resolved all four Outpost Siege! In his situation Chandra would have been much worse. Check it out. The entire match was very entertaining.

No sarcasm in there. This is genuinely my opinion. Paying three mana for a 1/2 that tutors up a low impact card in the match up just isn't good.Nice sarcasm.Seems a lot less powerful now that Outpost Siege is the defining card in the mirror. Chained to the Rocks isn't nearly as good in the mirror as it is in other matchups, and you DID posit your question in interest of breaking the mirror, so...
I spent about 4 hours yesterday playing against the mirror and Heliods Pilgrim was very relevant.
Which card to play at any given point within the next two months is going to be rather fluid. It's all dependent on how much enchantment hate people are playing, how many Hero's Downfalls people are playing, and how aggressive the meta is. I currently like Chandra maindeck in any list running Brimaz, and Outpost Siege coming out of the sideboard.

Final list. Swapped Wild Slash for Outpost Siege as it's a bit more high impact and flexible.

Nope. I keep trying but I really like Chandra. She's such a huge tempo play.
I'm back on the Ashcloud Phoenix bandwagon. Here's the 75 I'm planning on running at the PPTQ this Saturday:

My 60 is set in stone. The sideboard is something I'm looking to tune. I feel like I want some tech against control like Outpost Siege. Wild Slash may be too low impact to play in the board as I feel like I'm already a favorite against the decks I'd bring it in for.
