Braid of Fire still has use, though.  You can use it to beef up Comet Storm, or anything else that can be played at instant speed.  Also, it can be used for Ashling's ability.

It's a fun little deck.  I might recommend adding a few reuseable burn effects, a la Fanning the Flames, and more importantly, Searing Touch, which is at instant speed.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to do something different.  All we're saying is that you need to pack answers for the crap that everyone else is playing, otherwise you won't have very much fun getting your ass stomped by those generic thrag/rancor aggro builds.

I'm going to have to resound on what TyWoo is talking about.  In today's standard, you're going to need more than Burning Vengeance to win with this.

I have a creature-less build myself (mind you, in modern) that works with a lot more burn and counter magic.  Counter what you can, burn what you can't. 

Since you are within the confines of standard, I wholeheartedly recommend getting some searing spears, dissipates, and maybe even thunderous wraths.  Also maybe some Mizzium Mortars for the sideboard for aggro matchups.  I can tell you that a good Boros build will completely steamroll you before you even get set up.

Sent a trade offer.

Thanks for clearing that up, Null.  Makes much more sense to me now.

I personally haven't had this issue, but I still think it's a great idea!

FTFY: The Deck in question.

Just so you know for future reference, type [ url = http://www.whatever.com ] what you want it to day [ /url ] without the spaces, to link it.  Also, it helps if you give us a general idea as to what you intend to accomplish with the deck.  i.e. I want to get so and so out early, and capitalize on such and such ability.

First things first.  Lands are crucial.  Get more Godless Shrines and try to get some Isolated Chapels.  You have several cards that cost two black, and you don't wanna get stuck with white mana.

I'd probably swap the unburial rites for Immortal Servitude as a lot of your creatures share casting costs.  You could hypothetically return 8 creatures to the field for six mana.  Not too shabby.

Tainted Sigil also pairs nicely with the Vizkopa Guildmage.  Also, Rhox Faithmender doubles the effect, and is a great blocker.  Also, Blood Artist should not be overlooked.

Now into the older stuff.  Serra Ascendant can replace that 1/1 lifelinker.  Martyr of Sands gets real stupid with this build.  There's others, but I'm too sleep deprived to think of them.

Firstly, I don't exactly understand what the win condition is in this deck.  You said something about a combo, but I don't see it.

Secondly, Seal of Strength is terrible.  Replace it with Giant Growth.  Same cost, same effect, not susceptible to removal.
