[Standard] Fire Quest

[Alex]

This is a deck I came up with after wondering if a burn deck would be possible in ZEN Standard. The deck hasn't even been put together, let alone tested, but I thought I'd post it anyway.

Lands

4 Arid Mesa
4 Marsh Flats
6 Mountain
5 Plains
5 Swamp

Creatures

3 Obsidian Fireheart

Spells

Instants
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Harm's Way
4 Path to Exile
3 Burst Lightning
3 Volcanic Fallout

Sorceries
4 Blightning
3 Banefire

Enchantments
3 Quest for Pure Flame
2 Bloodchief Ascension

Planeswalkers
1 Sorin Markov
1 Chandra Ablaze
1 Ajani Vengeant

The idea is basically to just burn, burn, burn. Bring your opponent to 0 as fast as possible by throwing burn in his face, and at his creatures if need be.

I'm not sure about Bloodchief Ascension in this deck, but it seems reasonable at the moment. Also, the planeswalkers are there to make things interesting.

wow i love this deck... but the ascension is kinda weird...
i think an ajani vengeant would look better than the ascensions.

Updated version as discussed on Show 48. Basically, the Ascensions, one Fireheart and one mountain are cut for 3 Punishing Fire.
