Sound of Thunder

Yes, this is a mono-red Storm deck. No, it's not meant to win consistently. If I can win even 2% of the time, that would be enough for me, and what a glorious win it would be.

Currently trying to figure out the proper balance of damage/ramp/card draw in the deck, so I'd appreciate feedback on Magmatic Insight, Shard Volley, Skewer the Critics and Inner Fire especially.
(And if I COULD fit Veil of Summer into the deck without completely disrupting the mana base, I absolutely would.)

Deck Reviews / [EDH / Commander] Strawmanning the Opponent

Strawmanning the Opponent

This deck flips at random between being a really fun-to-play artifact shenanigans deck, and a really "fun" to play against destroy-all-your-things deck. I wouldn't dream of stopping it from being either of those things.
I put this deck up for two reasons. One, I need advice on win conditions, which this deck doesn't do easily (Door to Nothingness is very powerful in some ways, and very clunky in others). Two, I think Reaper King is a highly underrated commander, and he deserves a day in the spotlight.

Note: I would prefer not to introduce any more flicker effects beyond the Ghostway that's already there. The engine of this deck is largely graveyard-based, while the Ghostway is just there for the rare occasions I have loads of scarecrows out somehow.
