You don't have a reason to run {Goblin Gavaleer}, try replacing it with {Grim Lavamancer}, {Chandra's Pheonix}, or {Shrine of Burning Rage}

Especially a 4 of. You could argue, gives {Goblin Grenade} more value, but another chieftain would make more sense.

Using them for grenade fuel only. Be it outright grenading or infernal plunging to brimstone volley.

At least {Spikeshot Elder}  does something.

Don't have a fourth chieftain, otherwise I would run four. The {goblin gavaleer} is just a place holder till I can trade/ my local shop has better to sell. Want to run this deck friday.  Would like to find another couple {goblin wardriver}s also.

Replaced two gavaleers with {hell rider}.

Still, the abosolutely most important thing for any form of Red Deck Wins are 2 {Shrines of Burning Rage}, they are the primary win condition. Period.

Updated, still looking for a replacement to the last gavaleers, thinking wardrivers.

I say shrines, or {Red Sun's Zenith}, it shuts down Undying so nice in this format

This deck is looking pretty dang powerful, and I'm not just saying that. War drivers are good cards to have in place of gravaleers, Shrines are amazing cards to have because they will be Incredible threats to control decks, trust me, a resolved one of those bad boys means game over unless you're topdecking {Karn Liberated}. {Torch Feind} is yet another great choice for sideboard artifact removal. Another thing I noticed is not much flying flying in your deck so possibly a {Chandra's Phoenix} main board or a {Curosive Gale} sideboard. Other than that it looks like the opponent is going to be scrambling for answers turns 1-4 fast or they are going to be at the end of the rope life-wise.

Looks awesome. Definitely agree on running 4x {Shrine of Burning Rage}. Out of curiosity, why {Inkmoth Nexus}? Unless they're for extra creatures to sac or for {Hellrider}. You should win with burn long before infecting anyone to death.

Good flying chump blockers if you need them.

Ordered the third and fourth shrine on eBay. I am still looking for either a {goblin wardriver} or {chandras's Pheonix} for the last gavaleer. Really like the idea of torch fiends for artifact removal do I can put my root bound crags back in my tempo deck.

Replaced the gavaleer with a {furnace scamp} for the time being, looking at it as a cheap 4 damage or sac fodder for brimstone volley if it gets blocked.

Good idea. I think furnace scamp is a great choice.
