Agreed ^ You don't have anything that abuses delve so it's not worth it

And I think  {Stoke the Flames} Is a 4 of for this deck

nah I think stoke is good at two. You have chained, doom, strike, sarkhan, and cut for removal. Sure, it's good with outburst, but a lot of the things that you want to kill can't be killed by stoke. That said I think chained should be a three of, and to cut a charm for it. Also, zurgo isn't great, I'd suggest {ash cloud phoenix}, {Stormbreath dragon}, or {kologhan, the storm's fury} in his place

There's so many cards that would work it's hard to choose like {bloodsoaked champion}{monestary swiftsper} and a lot more

Tbh Bloodsoaked and Seift have no spot in here bc your ideal Turn 1 is a tapped land you don't want to go T1 Champ or swift bc then your mana is really shady

He's not there for a T1 play, he's there for the Butcher interaction.
Sac to give him haste, declare attacks, return him to the battlefield, sac for lifelink/vigalence, repeat.

Cutting outbursts makes butcher so much worse. If you cut them, you probably have to cut butcher too. Downfalls are sideboard material for this deck. They're really only needed to kill gin, and if you're playing stormbreaths, Sarkhans, and burn spells, they aren't needed too much. One thing I'd suggest doing though is going 2/2 split between {lightning strike} and {wild slash}. With all the taplands, strike isn't always available to kill their rabbles, seekers, or really any two drop. Strike doesn't kill much more than wild slash. 2/2 split is where I think they should be.

Here's the thing though Game 1 you're an aggressive Midrange Deck take out the Outburst and you become a controlly midrange deck and it takes from your strat.

Your deck shouldn't have a problem with PWs bc you have flying hastey dudes that can just kill them. Like lol said SB in Downfalls

I know what your saying , but a fellow player is running the same deck minus the outburst , he's running downfalls and says it's been more effective for him and he suggested I should try it
