You can kill them with damage before milling if you're going to goldfish like that. Especially if you drop Gideon t4 and a titan t5 instead of the way you did it.
Kinda surprised that Tunnel Ignus has only been mentioned once. Play both in a R/G deck and hit your opponent with a bigger than usual X-burnspell or whatever.
Shred Mind is pretty sick since it kills every idea of playing cards in your opponents turn and forces the opponent to play everything he has the turn he/she draws it. For 2BB that's way too powerful, even Mind Rot with B less cost only let's the opponent discard two.

Whenever you lose life, reveal the top card of your library and put it into your hand. You lose life equal to that card's mana cost.

So it's a non-optional Ad Nauseam until you die or hit a land? For 2 mana, ok, but seriously, maybe up the cost/body and make it optional?
Durr I didn't realize the card draw was making you draw even more cards.
How's that:

Whenever a source an opponent controls causes you to lose life, reveal the top card of your library and put it into your hand. You lose life equal to that card's mana cost.

You can reequip multiple times several creatures if you have the mana, it's a recurring Giant Growth. It's a rather powerful rare if you ask me.

Akabane Kureha 2W
Creature - Priestess

At the beginning of your first postcombat main phase, if Akabane Kureha is in your graveyard return her to the battlefield and untap all creatures you control. There is an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.

Genesis Wave is interesting. Not awesome but interesting. Once people stop making up bad examples like casting it for X=2 to "prove" how bad it is we will see some deck abusing it quite soon.
Even if it's not fake, it's far from broken. And by far I mean really far from broken. It doesn't do anything on it's own except sometimes enabling metalcraft and just because you might be able to blow up a land on t3 it isn't going to be broken.
But isnt really playable in anything right now...and doesnt have a ETB effect. Bad card.
Baneslayer has no ETB effect either, just saying.
Anyway it's a 4/3 with flying for 2UU which is obviously good. It also might dodge removal and block creatures without dying so that makes it even better. People need to stop looking at this card while thinking that it needs metalcraft to be good. It's a fairly solid creature on it's own with the chance to get almost invincible.
I'm not saying it's the uber bomb rare so far but it definitely has potential.
But then they Mana Leak it so Manic Vandal ends up killing your own Metalcraft cards, while Tuktuk Scrapper becomes the most expensive bear in recent time.
It's cute, but competitive? I don't know. Seems like carrying coals to Newcastle.
But then I simply counter your Mana Leak! "It can be countered" has the same problem "it dies to removal" has, the argument is way so broad because almost everything can be countered or destroyed. We got this covered several times now already so let's close the case.
As for the card, it's indeed cute. This will not see competitive play unless we get some ridiculously good artifact removal in SoM which I doubt. Pretty good in limited for tricks and enabling metalcraft but won't do much in other formats.
But doing it with Jace has more style.
Jace 3.0 is by no means a bad card. It does what it was designed for very well (mill) and in a flavourful way.

Obviously you don't cast Manic Vandal without Liquidmetal Coating in play, hurr durr.

The demon itself is fairly solid.
