    I have been brewing this deck for the past week or so. Have a few thoughts to add to Woo's deck.

    I wonder if Geist of Saint Traft might be at the VERY least sideboard material, possibly even main deck. I think Armed//Dangerous should for sure go in if your going in that direction as then geist represents 10 damage. This deck feels great, but if your opponent removes all of your creatures I often feel left in a place of "What do I do now?". Handful of burn, but not enough to get the kill, wanting to hold on to the burn to drop another creature(That gets removed >.<).

    I also think Skullcrack has a place in here somewhere. Depending on the metagame, it can be back breaking. Your opponent plays revelation, you skull crack, not only do they not gain 3-7 life, they lose life. Same goes with Thragtusk.

    I'm a big fan of Boros Charm, its your biggest burn spell, and its so versatile.

    I wonder if, albeit mana intensive, Annihilating Fire Might even be viable here? It would help with the hyper agro matchup, while still producing damage to the player. It seems like a good "replacement" 3 drop if you didn't draw cyclops or guttersnipe, that allows you to slow down the board state, and still keep decreasing the life total.
