Need suggestions as to make it better and need tons of help with sideboard.  Have played this casually against several decks (modern elf trample, graveyard etc. ) and it has done very well but am looking to play it at FNM.  Thanks!

Why not {lightning bolt} instead of searing spear?

Drop shred freaks in favor of kill spells like {murder} or {ultimate price}, help keep the field clear to push in more hits

You should definetly make room for some {madcap skills}, toss it in a {Stromkirk nonbeliever} t2 and he can get pretty scary fast. A set of {vexing devil} definetly wouldn't go wrong either!

Edit:{Stromkirk noble}...damn spell check lol

When I play the devil I play him automatically assuming that hell be sac'ed, taking up a spot I normally would reserve for burn spells. He's not reliable as a creature though unfortunately, 90% of the time people will have you sac him. If you build him into your deck with this mentality, he's a lot more likely to work!
