Okay so I went four and oh today with red white prowess. The deck is awesome. One thing that I am thankful for is defiant strike. Stoke the flames is the only Burn spell that I play and it is particularly cool with raise the alarm. Titan strength is amazing. Feat of resistance and Gods Willing are great. I do not okay rabble masters because their goblins always get blocked and no matter how strong the rebel master gets you can kill him with two damage so stop putting him on the pedestal. No storm breath Dragon's or's are cons really because I never needed him.Game one I went up against green devotion I didn't catch the end the hostilities to clear the board and I ended up just open flame for the win. Stoke the flame won me a lot of games today. round two I went against an Agro abs Abzan deck which chain the rocks was an all star. It was funny I had him at seven and turn stoke the flames no cards and I drew a defiant strike cast it on his creature to topdeck another stoke the flames. I also went against the jeskai I deck. This was a particular combo deck with the 03 orchid and the blue untap and you use that artifact that mills you. I basically had him down to three life and he milled me and I had a monastery spear and three lands with a upkeep stoke the flames. At this point the basic strategy is to just tighten strength defiant strike give protection and get in with the secret of the way and monasteries Swift's spear. Game four I went up against abs and one game one cause I played first of course.you didn't draw his sorrows or bile of blight but he did end up playing Sorin with two of those two for centaurs that reveal the top Cardaview library and killed me. Games three I was able to turn one swift spear turn to raise the alarm turned three trumpet blast and then turn four and five were just going to stoke the flames and yes it's awesome. Willing to put up as a deck list if people want to see what I used today but I have a lot of confidence in the stack I do love defined strike for prowess and drawing a card. The gods willing in the field of resistance or just protection I mean it fizzles there destroy spells and gets you in when they can block and you just the way so they're just trying to touch up all game. I had an objection against red white burn after I start hating I would grab a master and I start getting struck with lightning strikes and Mac which apps that were performing as well as like Titan strength or to find strike or with my creature it felt like I had two separate entities trying to get along with my deck and there wasn't any synergy there unless you get lucky and they don't block goblin or kill him.
I'm honestly shocked you didn't play any other burn spell other than Stoke, since they are the best enablers for prowess. It sounds like you were technically playing RW Heroic that's been making rounds lately, and Rabblemaster normally isn't played in it. But don't knock on it just because in one tournament it didn't work for you. It's a great card in most decks, and you could have taken advantage of your God's Willing to attack through your opponent's defenses and swing for a lot.
