The acceleration suggestions are superb. Thanks.
As for early drops, I think this deck always wants:
T2 Sphere, Chalice, or Anger
followed by
T3 Koth, Anger, Bolt+Sphere/Chalice, or best of all a Dragon
Good call on Coldsteel Heart. I'll use that over Sphere. (No Fire Diamond to keep this list Modern legal)
Dragonlord synergy with Volt Charge seems good.
I just don't know what I'd cut to fit it. While it's a great threat and mana dump, unless it's level 4 it conflicts with Anger.
I've thought about Solemn and will probably test him. He just feels like a pretty unexciting turn 3 though.
A turn 4 Titan is great, but a combination of mana rocks, Spirit Guide, and Koth already achieve this.
If I were to run Solemn, I think I would go more of a Geosurge route and run a few Wurmcoil Engines and a Balefire Dragon.
While I like going big, I'm trying not to get too greedy. A midrange of 5 drops seems more consistent.
Also I don't think Solemn cantrips with Anger. I'd have to switch to Slagstorm.
Me too!

Kargan Dragonlord is a decent early drop and can utilize the proliferate from Volt Charge.
