Notes:
This is just an experimental deck that shall be utilizing the elemental and see how far it can drive. Of course the flamekin harbinger shall tutor for the things I need, but in terms of directions I'm not sure which way to turn. Suggestions?

That looks pretty good at first glance, very fast, reliable and deadly. Consistently swinging in with a 6+ trampler on turn 3 is what I'd be shooting for

For sure! Lol I was actually thinking of popping in a {Blistering Firecat} to do more and take out  {Nova Chaser} due to the haste factor, but the whole  {Flamekin Harbinger}  {Nova Chaser} combo is awesome lol

I'd leave the nova chaser in. It gives a strong potential to be swinging for 10 on turn 3. And doesn't require sacing. Once that turn 1 fetch plays it's pretty useless so great championing fodder.

You might as well finish them off with {Fireblast}!

That is true I'm wondering if I should be either throwing creatures at them like  {Ball Lightning} or keeping them in like  {Supreme Exemplar}

I might make some drastic changes here I know I'm probably wanting to keep it primarily red but the whole red deck win aspect (I literally just realized that this deck is turning into a very crappy version of that) is giving me the thumbs down for some reason

x2  {Fireblast}
x2  {Rockslide Elemental}

Going to see how that goes
