Won with Skink turn 3 (turn 2 Wasteland) which let's me scry and the following turn dropping Meek then Iroas then Hellrider. He just didn't get to dropped a lot of stuff and he tutors a Blasting Station.
Game 2
He got turn 1 Mom. I got turn 2 Thalia (I got Ruination which useless) and he got Sculler removing Mindcensor. Then I dropped B Reckoner and he dropped Viscera Seer. Then he dropped Jitte (me: 6 permanents and 4 hand, him: 8 permanents and 2 hand). I dropped Iroas with Thalia and Reckoner swinging. He killed my Reckoner with Dismember. I concede because I can't deal a Jitte and dealing a lot of damage (I have Thalia left)... in addition he got Fleshbag and Night's Whisper (his 2 hand).
Game 3
Mana screw indefinitely. Turn 3 Tutor for Land Tax. Didn't get the necessary drops.
In the end I have
Hand: 5 lands (3 from Tax), Ruination, Eidolon, Geopede
My Field: 4 Lands, Land Tax, Banishing Light on Clamp, Firedrinker, Flamespeaker
His Hand: Yawgmoth's Will, Vindicate, Mesmeric Fiend, Athreos, Bitter B
His Field: 6 Lands, Blasting Station, 1/1 Token, Teysa, Nether Traitor
Game 4
Lost to Contanimation lock (with Grave Pact). At first I thought I got him, but I need something to pop his Creature to avoid getting B mana. Tbh, I just need a final push to hit him hard.
Over analysis:
After looking at my games, I may need to readd Ajani Vengeant and other etb pingers. Sucks that Boros color doesn't have a mana filter creature. Need to redo my white Iroas. I have ample creatures, I guess luck isn't with me.
I counted 13 4+cmc spells in the list, and I can't believe you took out Lightning Bolt. It's creature removal that can also finish players/planeswalkers. Too good.
For a tournament where you know that Marath and Oloro is still a powerhouse, yeah, PoP is a really good card. I just drop him because I know that I'll be facing more on two color on 'trice. If I know that I'm playing a competitive player without knowing the meta, PoP is on my list.
Hey there, I've been using Asimov list for a while at my LGS and I really like the deck so far. I've tried Flame-Kin Zealot and I've found it really good, it helps Iroas with the devotion count and it has haste!!!
I'm still missing a few cards from his list such as Kargan Dragonlord and Ravages of War (too expensive) but I think is a nice aggro edh deck.
One card that I'm currently trying is Pyre Charger... it gives you 2 to your devotion count, it has haste and it's mana sink.
I've been experimenting with making RW aggro work in french edh, and this is the decklist I'm currently using. It has had moderate success on Cockatrice thus far. I think Iroas is currently the best of any RW general, with Jor Kadeen and Anax and Cymede coming as close second. Since none of the RW commanders are particularly spectacular, the deck is not focused around the commander, rather Iroas is treated more like a decent 4 mana enchantment that you always have access to in case you've got no better play. Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer and Anax and Cymede both require that a deck be built around them (either with lots of artifacts or lots of auras). In that sense, they are both weaker commanders in that the cards in your 99 will have to sacrifice general value for synergy with a (not great) commander.
The biggest difference between my deck and other RW aggro decks I've seen is that mine plays more like a traditional aggro deck. I do not play any cards that are strictly answers or cards that do not further my goal in some way, which is to deal 30 points of damage as quickly as possible so your opponent has no time to reach their win con. I see a lot of "aggro" decks posted that run cards like Swords to Plowshares, Darksteel Mutation, and Oblivion Ring. While these are excellent cards in most edh decks, all they are really doing is spending mana that could have been used to play a threat AND putting you even further from your win con, especially in the case of Swords to Plowshares. The only exception to this in my deck is Unexpectedly Absent, which I feel should be in every deck with access to white because in a lot of cases it's essentially a WWTime Walk.
I keep the curve low, with an average CMC of 2.49. The only cards in the deck with CMC >4 are Sun Titan and Inferno Titan.

Also, I think Price of Progrss is also necessary.

How's Flame-Kin Zealot performing?
I've tried Akroan Hoplite but I haven't got to use them in my recent games. How are they performing?
I really like your enchantment roster! Most of them, I haven't heard of.

Few weeks ago, you've used Defender of Chaos... What happen to that guy since he has potential in theory wise?
