I know, sideboard is a bit rough and people might find BLACK as a splash color unnecessary, it's just that it's so hard to kill that effing tree(not to mention the sphinxes flying around), hence I go for the throat!

Thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.
We are the middle children of history. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War is a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.
Having no first-person experience with RDW in my 11 years of on-and-off playing in Standard, I brought this deck to 4th place at my first FNM in years:
What I still want to test: 4 Gut Shot MD instead of Shock. Coming in two weeks.
Reasons:
Singleton Kessig Wolf Run: Something to do with Rootbound Crag if I happen to pull one. I've won games with it so I don't want to change it. Ghost Quarter: Meta has a lot of Inkmoth, and I don't feel like wasting SB slots on another Grudge. Also good against Moorland Haunt, which is prevalent.
Combust: Hero of Bladehold. Pure card hate.
Goblin Fireslinger: It's another way to get turn 2 Berserker.
Singleton Incinerate and Brimstone Volley: If I'm not playing against tokens or small drops.
Rootbound Crag vs. Copperline Gorge: Money, I have none.
Pre-rotation my RDW rocked hard, but after losing staggershock, searing blaze and such I kinda shelved it due to not feeling I could fix it. Well I believe I have and testing lately I have had good results. Only thing is I am wondering if perhaps I should scrap the 2 Kruin's for more burn or perhaps moving Past in Flames to the maindeck?
This decks been treating me so well, it originally started as Yakusoku's No chase-rare RDW, but I modified it with non-budget cards and made it better.
I really need more tech against Dungrove Elder and Tree of Redemption, and Mono Black infect gives me a LOT of trouble. But with most other decks I have encountered, I don't have too much of a problem.
Here is a version I am playing with.
I played the worlds RDW deck last week and noticed that people have started to adapt to the deck. Anyways, I wanted to switch it up a little bit.

I gotta say, the Nobles and Berserkers along with Volt Charge are tech. If an opponent doesn't deal with them immediately, it's usually GG.
