I call this deck Dark Dreams as the deck primarily focuses around using ad nauseamto draw the deck u il you hit sickening dreams and dark sphere. The main interaction is dark sphere and sickening dreams where you activate dark sphere targeting the sickening dreams that way you take half as much damage as the opponent will be taking from the sicking dreams. I been working on this deck that I have been building for a while and this is the list
I am One_Man_Party and this past FNM at a local game store I go to pretty regularly. This local game store hosts Paper pauper on Fridays and this past Friday April 6th, I went 3-0 in a 6 person event playing burn.

My Matches were as follows
UB Teachings
UR Deliver
Bant Turbo Fog
All I can say is that the teachings deck was too slow for me on burn.
The delver match boiled down to me drawing my pyroblasts to counter my opponents counter spells against my burn spells.
The bant turbo fog matchup, I burned my opponent out on turn 3, game 2 my opponent crushed me with CoP: Red and game three, I just drew well and the opponent was able to get CoP Red but I was able to race the life gain via Archer, Thermo and two curses.
Two nights ago I played the deck and this was the 2nd week of playing the deck I have discovered that every time I had gotten one of the three dragons in my openimg hands or simply drawing one of them while trying to go for it has caused me to lose the game. I had given the deck a shot and have failed miserably I am scrapping the deck.
I have a dragonstorm list I had put together that ran Dragonlord Dramoka, Dragonlord Kolaghan, Atarka World Render combo of dragons by using mizzix mastery a red loot spells with rituals to get it done.
Sadly, I have not been able to get ahold of the dragonstorms and the mizzix mastery
I am One_Man_Party and I am running a list of skred I dubbed Skredding Wildfire. And you guessed it I am running Main Deck Wildfires. Here is the deck list as follows:
I would love to find a deck in modern that can play wildfire, but there just isn't enough, it doesn't fit skred, because skred depends on your land count, wildfire makes you sac lands as well, and if you had a scourge in play with out a relic on line it will put it in the grave.
There just isn't enough synergy there. If you insist on playing this deck I would suggest cutting skred for roast or some other removal, and switching out Scourge for another threat. If only Modern had thran dynamo, or worn powerstone wildfire would be playable would be playable.
I play tested some games against a friend at a school I go to and have found out that you are indeed correct in that how much of a backfire or antisynergistic the wildfires are in comparison to the skred control deck.

@knifemind: My bad, I am running a cheerios variant of my own using an entire suite of 0 drop artifact creatures and retracts to kill my opponent with assault formation.
I have a Kobold Deck togetyer thqt goes an entirely different route.
The deck consists of the kobolds, foundry street denizen, goblin bushwacker, simian spirit guide and a suite of burn spells in the likes of reckless abandon, bolts, mob justice and lotus petals with 16 mountains. Deck is a ton of fun to play.
One_Man_Party here chiming in on the craze of kaladesh. With the diacussion of madcap experiment combo I have been,t been thinking with the deck idea by going full red ritual based strategy with the following sequence:
1. Mountain, exile simian spirit guide, pyretic ritual, desperate ritual, madcap experiment in reaponse to it cast intervention pact reveal until reservoir and activate.
I am One_Man_Party and I bring to all of you a deck construction of what happens when you the player can't afford a deck like All in Skred and strongly don't like the idea of Tri-color Naya Burn. Since I have all the cards for Atakra Burn including the commands, the eidolons and guides I figured I construct this modern deck that features the power of blood moon with snow-covered mountains and skred with the hyper-aggressive play style of Burn. Without further ado, here is the decklist I am currently running as follows:
Found out after playing the deck for awhile that there has been a number of problems the deck has faced.
1. Browbeat is not as good as it could have been
2. Magma Jet has not been great either and Exquisite Firecraft has not been as good either because tge deck ended up being either mana starved or flooded along with not able to close games out.
3. I have ended taking the deck apart and re-built it to a previous rendition of skred.
running that many 5+ drops with 22 lands only and without mana rocks, seems a bit risky even with SSG i think... it can work out but you might get screwed because of this.
I also like running some number of Pyroclasm in our sweeper slots, because it's very efficient; being able to play a sweeper agaisnt something like affinity or elves a turn earlier can be very important.
I would also try to fit Roast, as a decent way to kill stuff out of bolt range, without having to wait until turn 4+ to kill them with Skred.
The sideboard really depends on what you expect to face, but i have been getting great results with Eidolon of the Great Revel; the card can give an out against decks with better late game by letting us go under, and is usually great against combo in general
@Patrice399, I don't know who's decks you are commenting on but what I do know that the variant of the deck I am running the metas I have been playing as seen in the two tournment reports that elves and affinity where no where to be seen.
I am One_Man_Party and I have built Skred because ultimately I had blood moons with the amount of red cards I have I built this mono-red devotion deck and with the suggestions of local players told me to run Skred over the devotion deck. Luckily for me, I had built enough store credit at one of the local game stores I was able to not only purchase 22 Snow-Covered Mountain but also at another local game store to have purchased 2 Scrying Sheets. I played the deck on Friday July 29th at FNM with actually moderate success against the following: GR Valakut and Naya Burn that of which the decks I won my matches while the losses were against Taxing Eldrazi and Bant Eldrazi. Now flash forward to this past Monday Night Magic August 1st, I went 3-0-1 where my match wins were against Taxing Eldrazi, Jund, GR Devotion, and my last round opponent was nice enough to intentionally draw so that the prizing was benefited both of us gaining an amount of store credit. The list I am currently running now I called Skred Dragons and here is the list as follows:
4x Ornithopter
4x Phyrexian Walker
4x Shield Sphere
//Instants: 14
2x Ad Nauseam
4x Dark Ritual
