I don't know much of the standard meta right now, but I do know that fated conflagration is good at killing siege rhinos and anger of the gods is awesome at dealing with mantis riders.

I like the idea but maybe more creatures and if so drop anger of the gods, it kills your rabblemasters and tokens anyway then what do u have to stoke of flames with unless u hard cast.
Maybe some swift spears or ashcloud Phoenix

Ash cloud seems cool. I'm not so sure about swiftspears, I'm playing this more like a control or midrange deck. I hope.

Anger also does kill sylvan caryatids which is super nice.

What would you think about swapping 2  {Fated Conflagration} For 2 more  {Magma Jet} The jets you still get your scary no matter who's turn it is and you can hit the player, there's so much removal that if the board is empty and you draw FC late game it just becomes a dead card

The idea with FC was to kill {siege rhino}s, {polukranos}s, etc. late game there will be elspeths or something I'm sure, but magma key doesn't kill too many things early or late.
