Notes:
If the burn isn't working great against your opponent, you have sideboard full of removal spells.

Another side note. I think that  {Searing Blood} and  {Madcap Skills} could fit somewhere in here.

MisterJH

{searing blood} is a boss but make sure you can consistently cast it early game with 3 colors.. Springleaf will help obviously but you wont always draw 2 Rs or a springleaf

Edit: i see that almost all your lands are {R}x so youll be fine haha

Dhoulmagus

I ended up cutting 3  {Spike Jester} , 2  {Rakdos Cackler} and 1  {Shock}
I added 4  {Ash Zealot} and 2  {Searing Blood} for better synergy with  {Xathrid Necromancer} and  {Satyr Firedancer}

Dhoulmagus

I took out the guild gates and put 4  {Temple of Deceit} i play tested this deck against Bant control and esper control and it did very well. I did get blown out in a couple of matches. I just need some play testing against mono blue and mono black and G/R Monsters.

I'd consider 1-2 whips for more late game, that lifelink may really help too if u eat up a bunch of life from pain seer and duskmantle... And if control board wipes u, u still have threats to bring back

you are absolutely right. I did add 1  {Whip of Erebos} in the main deck and I'm deciding if I want to put an extra on in the sideboard.

{whip of erobos} is a great add to this bad boy, I'd throw maybe one more in the main deck just to ensure you pull it in said late game, because a one out of 75 chance, odds are SLIM my friend. This isn't Yu-Gi-Oh.

Its 1 out of sixty because the Sideboard is 15 cards

Whoops, still, odds are slim.
