Modern Burn Cards?

[Nanocarter23]

What are the best modern burn cards?  And is it better to go mono red or splash some white in there?

[Kaalia with haste]

Your best bet is probably RGW or Naya. Green gives you atarka's command, white gives you boros charm and path to exile in the sideboard.

Thats probably going to be pricey then with all those lands....:/

Modern burn cards:

{Lightning Bolt} obvi
{Lava Spike}
{Boros Charm}
{Atarkas Command} or {Skullvrack} of you want just RW
1-2 {Shard Volley}

{Goblin Guides}
{Monastery Swiftspear}

As I'm typing this in thinking just check mtgtop8.com they have all the top decks

Also in the modern section there is a sticky of the top modern decks with deck list and you tube links a deck tech

alright fair enough but can somebody explain to me why goblin guide is so essential for a burn deck?

It's 1 mana for a repeated 2 damage starting turn one

thats the only reason?    i feel like other cards would be more benefitial..... vexing devil?  or just more burn...?

Devil will at max deal four damage. It eats a lightning bolt or they force a sac through its own ability

{Lightning Helix}, {Warleader's Helix}, {Boros Charm}, {Leyline of Sanctity}, {Stony Silence}, {Erase}/{Disenchant} reasons to go white.

{Destructive Revelry}, {Atarak's Command}, {Choke} reasons to go green.

IMO Boros burn is the best option as it allows you to play {Blood Moon}.

War leader's helix is bad

Beat me to it, burn doesn't run Leyline, or Erase/Disenchant.

{Leyline of Punishment} maybe, but {Erase}/{Disenchant} is needed, although it is {Wear // Tear} all day in that slot. You need a way to blow past {Leyline of Sanctity}.

[LinkCelestrial]

Why on earth would you not run {Leyline of Sanctity} in Boros burn?

I forgot about {Wear // Tear}. You /need/ enchantment hate in the current meta. Folding to {Leyline of Sanctity} will make you lose games you should have won.

Why /not/ run {Blood Moon}? Besides that it's a BS card that shouldn't exist. It wins games. {Choke} is a devastating SB card as well.

How is blood moon BS? It's so easy to play around. Fetch Lands exist. Also, you can play around choke. Leyline is a hoser for one archetype

Fetches don't help if {Blood Moon} is already on the board, or you don't know it's coming. You can play around it, and {Choke}, but it's not pleasant or easy and you will lose games. Unless of course you're not like me and you play 1-2 color decks.
