Vald: You forgot Infect on that list. However, do you really think it is worth it to play the one Plateau for that? I suppose the risk is minor since few decks that you would bring it in against play Wasteland.
Khaos: I agree with MDU on the 4x Fireblast. The card is just too valuable as a finisher. Unless you think Storm is going to be a real force in the side events, I think you can shave Mindbreak traps for things like more Rifts, Smashes, or Bridges.

On a side note from last weekend: Judge Bolts acquired. I am seriously considering breaking my rule on foil vs old card frame for the Chain Lightning and Price of Progress as well. I am honestly starting to worry about getting game losses for the only non-foil cards I have being in my sideboard though.

Burn doesn't need any ramp. We tend to empty our hand after 3 turns as it is. I can understand your desire for graveyard hate if Reanimator is strong but you already have Macabre in the sideboard and have options like Tormod's Crypt or Relic of Progenitus. By all means feel free to test it but I think you will find it lacking compared to a more traditional configuration.

It's becoming an issue
I have been told that pretty much constantly since I was born.I don't want to point fingers here... you're a problem.

It is more that, for me, Lavamancer just dies without doing anything so damn often. At least Swiftspear gets a hit in. I also played 19 Mountains back then to Stifle-proof myself so had not a lot of food for him. If Elves stays this popular (Indy is a hotbed for it), I might have to just swallow my pride and put at least two in.

One Burn deck in the Top8 this Open:
[deck]
Creatures (11)
4 Goblin Guide
3 Grim Lavamancer
4 Eidolon of the Great Revel
Spells (29)
2 Sulfuric Vortex
4 Fireblast
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Price of Progress
3 Searing Blaze
4 Chain Lightning
4 Lava Spike
4 Rift Bolt
Lands (20)
11 Mountain
1 Arid Mesa
4 Bloodstained Mire
4 Wooded Foothills
Sideboard
3 Ensnaring Bridge
3 Tormod's Crypt
1 Sulfuric Vortex
2 Pyroblast
3 Searing Blood
3 Smash to Smithereens [/deck]
3 Lavamancers main feels like a lot but there was a lot of Elves there. Maybe it was the right call. The lack of Swiftspears is also notable but something had to go to make room for Lavaman.

I have been doing some experimenting since the disaster in NJ and am actually starting to like a list with Treasure Cruise. The purist in me wants to vomit but I have had success in the limited testing I have done.
[deck]Cruise Burn[/deck]
I have been pretty impressed with Swiftspear in this list to the point where I might cut the Guides to put some Lava Spikes back into the deck. Being able to reload with Cruise or pitch bad cards with Brainstorm has proven surprisingly useful as well.
Then again, I may have hit my head too hard and too often recently and have lost what little of a mind I had left.

Getting those signed was definitely the height of my trip. I came with one foil just to be sure I could get it done and consider myself lucky to get 7 more signed on top of that. I did not see anyone else getting foil Unhinged signed. A lot of Riptide Labs, Cephalid Colosseums, Supreme Verdicts, foil Zendikar, and sets of regular Unhinged.

Now that I am home, bathed and a little less tilted I will go over my rounds. I played the deck in the photo above with +1 Tarn, -1 Swiftspear.
Round 1: Jeskai Delverblade (0-2)
Game 1: He Stoneforges into Batterskull. I kill the Mystic and he Dazes my Eidolon. Vortex eats a Force. I hit him once or twice, he hardcasts Batterskull. PoP on his end step gets Forced. I Vortex, he Council Judgements it and the game ends shortly after.
Game 2: 2x Stoneforge. One dies, the other Blaze gets Pierced. TNN comes down, then cast/equip Jitte. One Smash gets Forced, second gets Dazed. I die shortly after.
Round 2: Miracles (2-0)
Practically a bye. He never saw a Top either game, Counterbalance didn't land until turn 4+. I slowplay only because he wasn't manipulating and I figured he had counters. He didn't but used Brainstorms to get a few spells but put up little other resistance.
Round 3: Veteran Explorer (2-0)
Practically a bye. I had 6 Mountains in play (4 from deck) after turn 2. I vomit my hand. He does cast Titania, Protector of Argoth the turn before he dies. Game 2 he mulled to 4 and kept zero land. I cast T1 Spear, T2 Spear, Spike, T3 Guide, Guide, Fireblast for exact.
Round 4: Dredge (0-2)
Fuck Dredge. Both games on T1 he went Gemstone Mine, LED, Looting - crack LED in response, Flashback Looting. 20+ cards in graveyard. Crypt might have saved me in game 2 if I had it in my opener but I had cut the graveyard hate for the GP in favor of more Elves/D&T/Delver hate.
Round 5: Infect (0-2)
G1: Inkmoth into triple Invigorate.
G2: Glistener Elf, Daze your Bolt, Force your Blaze, Invigorate, Berserk.
I don't have detailed notes of the GPT or Win a Box but will recall from memory.
GPT
Round 1: Tezzeret (2-1)
Game 1: Chalice on 1 to start. Drops Strix, Tezzeret, finds Batterskull. I die.
Game 2: Price of Progress + Smash to Smithereens > Tezzeret
Game 3: Price of Progress + Sulfuric Vortex > Tezzeret
Round 2: Lands (2-1)
Price of Progress + Sulfuric Vortex > Lands + Zuran Orb
He did get the Chasm loop going Game 2 due to an opening Chalice on 1.
Round 3: TES (2-0)
I was insanely lucky. He Therapies my Eidolon both games, goes off, and dies.
Game 1: T2 Empty for 10 tokens, I volley him before his second attack.
Game 2: T2 Ad Nauseam at 16 life (Storm 7). He bricks.
Round 4: UR Delver (1-2)
I blitz him down game 1, he shows me Jitte and a ton of counters game 2. Game 3 I kept a one lander with 2 Spears and 2 Bolts. Died turn 6 not seeing land 2. 4 more cards until second land. Holding double Blaze for the one creature he was beating me down with.
Win a Box
Beat UW Stoneblade in 3 close fights. Kor Firewalker is a real pain to deal with if you don't have Vortex.
Beat UR Stasis in a marathon match. I won game 1 in 2 minutes. The other two games took 2 hours (rounds untimed). Game 3, I had him at one life for 14 turns while he countered my burn and bounced my Eidolon with Jace. He just couldn't get the final piece to keep Stasis around and lock me out for good.
Split the finals because opponent had to leave.
