{Blistercoil Wierd} or {Legion Loyalist}. 4 1 drops in a red deck is not enough. You want to make sure you have at least 1 in your opening hand. I don't think {Burning Tree Emissary} is good here. You can't cast {Ash Zealot}, {Frostburn Weird}, or {Boros Reckoner} off of it.

I do agree with adding the loyalist in here. I prefer 8 one drops for my RDW/ devotion. I like the emissary in here dispite not being able to cast your zealots and what not. What it does in multiples is set up the nykthos well IMO. I ran ember swallower to help get bigger bodies out there too. But it's just me ya know haha.
