ok here's what i found out
it doesn't matter if your playing big red or LD
you ALWAYS have:
Arc-Sloggers
Electrostatic Bolts
you most of the time have:
Pulse Of The Forge(for big red i think?)
pyroclasm(**** yeah!)
Stone Rain
Molten Rain
what i reccomend:Chrome Mox,Wooded Foothills,Magma Jet(scry abillity is DEADLY useful),and maybe starstorm but i'm sideboarding it at the moment and also i was thinking about Flamebreak but it's not to bad of a card really it's pretty useful i'm thinking about sideboarding Flamebreak at the moment

i think i get it...so its to destroy their lands while at the same time burnin their buts
pulse of the forge and Beacon of Destruction are my choices for burn repeaters
heres a combo: Panoptic mirror + Searing wind = 10 damage opponent per turn or rid urself of 1 creature on the field(usually)

you almost get it
instead of burning them
i MOST OF THE TIME get rid of the creatures
but if i don't have anything to burn sure i'll do it for the heck of it
Magma Jet is really good

I just got my 4th magma jet (funny how all 4 are from boosters), yay!

Anyway, I'd think that you should actually use 1 or 2 red pulses in your deck tho. It REALLY turns affinity games around for me (like when you get sharpenal'd). So I strongly recommend you consider 1 or 2 in there. As for magma jet: it's godly yea, but you probably won't have the room to slap them in.

You sure on the firewalkers? I mean, they don't seem to be working very well at my end.

As for some minor changes: +1 demolish, -1 Lay Waste (I don't care if you like cycling, it's just better to have the 4th demolish).

hmm
well in California
what's pretty popular
these days is Ravager/Affinity and
March of The Machine deck doesn't seem 2 bad right now (lol condescend)
Tooth and Nail is seeing alot of play right now(Mephidross/Triskelion combo is pretty popular these days)
Elf/Nail is crap these days
What i've been noticing these days is Vial Affinity has gone through the roof
Ponza's doing pretty good here
(FireWalkers are good trust me on this one kenz)
i haven't been seeing lots of black play these days
Broodstar Affinity is pretty popular here
why i dislike pulses so much
i can't seem to use it in a good situation
but perhaps your right because ponza decks usually keeps you from having a hand i'd consider it
once again i repeat don't even think about taking firewalkers
i repeat they are essentials to ponza
