My third and latest PDH deck that focuses on winning with Commander Damage while burning players at the same time.
Commanded by Chandra's Spitfire, who can get really big, really quickly using pingers such as Goblin Fireslinger and burn such as Sizzle.
Notes: Not sure how it happened, but apparently Lightning Cloud is a rare LOL, so cut for Soul's Fire which was on my maybeboard. Thanks for that @bulkbinder!
Notes: Inflame hasn't been too relevant lately, Temur Battle Rage on the hand seems pretty good - not only does it make sure Spitfire gets through, but also leads to much faster kills. The only other consideration from the set was Collateral Damage.
Notes: Dragons of Tarkir Update!
Just some burn/pinging upgrades here. The newer cards are more efficient.
Other considerations included Tail Slash & Vandalize.

-100
Notes: Deck retired. Don't really play PDH anymore.
Conspiracy Update: Vent Sentinel is another "pinger" that I hadn't considered for the deck, but I do believe I have enough of those. I'll throw it in the "Other considerations" section. No changes.

Change Log
7/04/2013
-1 Galvanic Arc
+1 Lightning Cloud
Notes: Repeatable damage seems good.
13/05/2013
-1 Goblin Tunneler
+1 Mad Prophet
Notes: Flying should be enough evasion, can always burn any blockers. Prophet seems like good dig.
19/09/2013
-1 Kaervek's Torch
+1 Boulderfall
Notes: Theros Update! Although 8 mana, it does have to ability to ping each opponent. Will see how it does.
3/10/2013
-1 Lightning Cloud
+1 Soul's Fire
Notes: Not sure how it happened, but apparently Lightning Cloud is a rare LOL, so cut for Soul's Fire which was on my maybeboard. Thanks for that @bulkbinder!
11/07/2014
-1 Flare
+1 Generator Servant
Notes: M15 Update. Gonna try him out. The only other consideration was Inferno Fist.
12/11/2014
-1 Mana Geyser*
+1 Wayfarer's Bauble*
Notes: C14 Update. Just a quick, unexciting change. Nothing else from C14 was worth considering.
20/01/2015
-1 Inflame*
+1 Temur Battle Rage*
Notes: Inflame hasn't been too relevant lately, Temur Battle Rage on the hand seems pretty good - not only does it make sure Spitfire gets through, but also leads to much faster kills. The only other consideration from the set was Collateral Damage.
