You are correct about Living End, I misread the card. Cage stops Past in Flames nonsense in Storm but that alone might not be worth the sideboard slot. Orb stops the actual combo in Twin. The Junk players still play Finks, so it is more than just Rhino that I want to stop. Stony Silence shuts off a ...
Mana base is no more painful than anyone else's, really. I have the 4th shockland for extra white mana but it is stock otherwise (10 fetches, 4 basics). Stony Silence is to fight Affinity and Tron, which still has a following here. Molten Rain is useful against Tron but not many other opponents. Cag...

I definitely don't like Dissolve. The only card I care about that isn't hit by Stroke or Negate is Anafenza and I have Glare and Stance to knock that out. Hybridizing Juza's list, I came up with this. Submitting for opinions: Spells 1 Chandra, Pyromaster 2 Jeskai Charm 4 Lightning Strike 1 Sarkhan, ...
I think this is where I am after the last few rounds of testing: Spells 4 Boros Charm 4 Lava Spike 4 Lightning Bolt 3 Lightning Helix 4 Rift Bolt 4 Searing Blaze 1 Shard Volley 3 Skullcrack Creatures 4 Eidolon of the Great Revel 4 Goblin Guide 2 Grim Lavamancer 4 Monastery Swiftspear Lands 4 Arid Me...

I had a strange idea for a Burn list: It's just all of the greed. I'll try to test it in the next week. I don't think you can splash both black and green. The mana base just gets too painful and we get too vulnerable to LD. This is especially true if the Helixes end up in the sideboard to make it f...

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 thou...
Jim Davis took down a Modern Elite IQ with a Burn deck as well this weekend. Helixes main and Firewalkers in the side. http://www.starcitygames.com/article/30283_Polar-Opposites.html The only thing that is stopping me from unquestioningly playing this deck is that I am intrigued by a Jeskai Pryomanc...

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 thi...

Scepter has been a useful surprise for me. I pull it out the second I think they are going to bring in artifact hate or if they have access to Decay. Dropping a Charm or Helix under there often locks the game down. You may be right about G1 Ascension. I just don't know if I can find room in my sideb...
They play Revelry to do damage as well. I am not very high on Lavaman and Shard Volley myself. I am going off Jeskai at this point. I just can't get enough value out of the cards that blue grants and still be a burn deck. I will be going back to Dega. This is where I will start. Sideboard is roughly...
