Do you smell something burning? by Wfry84

Format: Commander

Commander: Electro, Assaulting Battery

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a mono-red spellslinger burn deck helmed by Electro, Assaulting Battery. The plan is to deploy cheap instant-and-sorcery payoffs (Guttersnipe, Fiery Inscription, Firebrand Archer, Kessig Flamebreather, and friends), then chain spells-especially via the dense flashback package-to ping the table while Electro (and parallel engines like Leyline Tyrant, Ashling, Flame Dancer, and Birgi, God of Storytelling) banks and refuels enormous piles of red mana. Primary wins are multiplayer-wide ping damage and oversized X-burn (Devil's Play, Conflagrate, Flaming Gambit); secondary lines include Grapeshot storm, fling outlets off Young Pyromancer tokens, and Electro's leave-the-battlefield X-damage trigger. Combat with dragons and Seize the Day is a backup clock. The deck is low-to-mid power: explosive mana turns, light interaction, and modest card selection.
