{Reconnaissance} is definitely a must too

I'd prefer to fin a spot for {Koth of the hammer} instead, and i'd go with {Chandra Nalar} over Firebrand

What's your reasoning? I don't agree with either of these.

Koth -2 can help me ramp narset a bit, his +1 can be used to clear the path for her to attack. And both of them can Ult within 2-3 turns, maybe less.

or you could just win the turn you cast narset.  ;)
You see a win the turn I cast her? Cause that did not happen yet,from what i've seen so far, 2-3 turns after she's out it´s a win, in 1vs1 though, haven't tried free for all yet

In a three colour deck Koth's -2 isn't going to bet you much mana at all, especially considering he's a 4 mana investment all by himself. His +1 is not that helpful, how often is a 4/4 relevant in EDG? Nevermind that it could die meaning you have one less land to work with which is bad news. Koth's ult is not going to be that helpful as again, you won't have a ton of mountains to work with.

He's amazing in mono red but he is sub optimal here.

{Chandra Nalaar} is pretty bad. Her plus one is not very relevant in EDH. Her -x is inefficient removal and her ult is great /but nobody is going to sit there and let that happen./ Planeswalker ults are awesome, but they are not common occurrences.

By all means, run them. They're cool. But they're not the best options IMO.

I actually run {Chandra, the Firebrand} and {Koth of the Hammer} in my {Narset, Enlightened Master} simply because they're Planeswalkers that I own. 9/10 times {Chandra, the Firebrand} is good and {Koth of the Hammer} untaps a couple mountains and that's it.

Getting that {sword of Kaldra} exiled isn't fun loll

I'm thinking about getting a copy of {Ajani Vengeant}, he seems to fit right in

Well, if you take extra turns, it's not quite the same turn is it?

;)

Yeah i guess you're right
