I've been toying around with a deck designed to fight the top decks in the metagame right now such as Tempered Steel, UW Control, Mono-B Infect as well as having game against the more fringe decks. This is list I came up with after moving things around.
I feel like the maindeck has a good first game against most decks. Post SB the deck really shines, being able to transform into a Coating deck vs control archetypes and upping the removal and answers in aggro matches.
Hero is nice, but I don't know how powerful he'd be if the deck had 15 creatures... Personally, I'd like other finishers like Kuldotha Phoenix, or Koth, neither of which would die to Slagstorm. Kuldotha Flamefiend is a nice option too, even though he's expensive. Wurmcoil Engine is also a very nice option, especially for two color deck. Not to mention you can board him out for more artifact hate when your opponents decide to board in methods of exiling him.
Also, Volt Charge is nice, but it doesn't have anything to prolife, and in the end is just an expensive 3 mana burn card. Maybe cards like Sphere of the Suns could be played for mana acceleration and to help out incase you're color hosed. I also would dare to maybe include Tumble Magnet... Since you're red heavy, you could also include Shrines to prolife. Boundless Growth could help you drop a huge Zenith to win the game, or Burning Rage, which is just a huge Zenith all by itself.
I've been tinkering around with a RG deck idea too, moreso with Metalcraft incorporated. I think Mimic Vat in a deck with this much demise to it can be pretty sweet.
