Someone in my playgroup told me once that it wasn't possible to build a burn deck for multiplayer EDH, so I set out to do something that'd be close enough to it.
Zo-Zu has a low CMC, relevant trigger and is also red.
The deck isn't designed to win- in most cases, it kills itself along with several others in a fiery blaze. That's not to say that it can't win, but it isn't the primary goal. The main points of this deck are to prove it possible to build a burn style deck and also to speed games up, as well as acting as a diplomatic exercise.
Mostly, looking to see any suggestions for making it more effective, or there's any cards that I've managed to miss in constructing this deck.
Ask yourselves, all of you, what power would hell have if those imprisoned here could not dream of heaven?

Both good cards that I somehow inexplicably forgot about. Especially Storm Cauldron.

I tried playing MLD before in the vein of Wildfire and Tectonic Break, but I found that I was usually the most affected by it, or that I never wanted to play it for various reasons.

Ha, I actually like the idea of Urza's Armor. It's slow and clunky and probably innocuous enough that it'll probably dodge most targeted removal as opposed to Eternity Vessel.
I'm not sure what I'd take out for it. I'll give it a try, though.
