no that's the only one, but I think this has potential for a solid burn deck, though pardic firecat should top your mana curve. Is there an uncommon(s) you are looking at for this to be peasant?

Nothing really, I just figured that it would make it slightly better if the inclusion of some uncommons was available is all.
I have never made a burn deck before, never really any other color deck before other than white so when it comes to my spider idea or this idea I dunno.
bolt is always great, if you're going peasant forked bolt is a good choice. I'd also use fireblast since your already looking at 20+ mana to readily cast pardic firecat. Also faithless looting seems a viable way of getting firecat into the yard without casting him.
Obviously this is practically off the top of my head. I don't think there are quite enough creatures, although I have high hopes for Gathan Raiders. There's enough draw/ filtering spread across the creatures/instants/sorceries to find what you need. I'd also find some room in there somewhere for Searing Blaze. That card is nuts.
Burning Inquiry might be nice in here. while the random discard will always hurt you it also disrupts your opponent and you will recover faster from the discard them they will.
It's nice, but the random discard is kinda lame. I've seen people put it to good use though. Don't forget, if your opponent has 3 cards in hand, they draw 3, then discard 3 (among the 6 in their hand). Odds are it won't hurt that much.
A year ago, when Faithless looting didn't exist, I would have been 100% to use Burning Inquiry. Looting is just so much better! Using both is an option, I suppose it could replace Wild Guess.
I really would like to hear back from XBM and know what he thinks! :/

Sorry, I have been really busy with my business and all lol.
I do like the deck you posted, my only concern is how quickly it would get a kill. I have never played a burn deck, and the closest thing I think I have to it would be an infect deck because of the quick kill. I just don't want this thing to stall out.
I did some printing of the cards and just stuck them in sleeves to practice before I buy it, and it runs quickly enough but I have no experience vs white weenie or delver players with this deck, I only played other casual decks, like stompy and ramp.
Ah that's fine, and I apologize. I didn't mean to put pressure on you.
From my calculations, if you aim every burn spell at their face and attack without being blocked, you can kill them in 5 turns. Not bad. Obviously, this will never happen. The strategy will be more like burning creatures out of the way so your raiders can get through for damage.
Changes I would make to the deck: -1 Mad Prophet, +1 Gathan Raiders, -2 Wild Guess, +2 Burning Inquiry.
if that's the plan put in Keldon Mauraders they might not last long, but they give you a solid blocker, 2 damage for sure and a swing from a 3/3 all for the cost of incinerate.
I'd say yes, but because I think as is your more of a big red style with the Raiders and chainwalkers. I think if you find it to slow drop the Raiders for the mauraders.
Pardic Firecat and Flame Burst as I think this may be kind of fun.
Are there any other cards that pair with Flame Burst and if so any deck ideas to make this viable, or is this just stupid?
