Designed this deck specifically to smash mono red decks in the ranked ladder and in Constructed Event.
Had a ton of fun with it on day one and tweaked it a number of times to be able to compete against other decks as well.
This deck struggles a lot against control, and does not contest Nexus decks very well.
Sideboard still needs to be thought out and tested.
 

 NOTES 

23/01/2019 - Exiling Jump-Start cards like Risk Factorimage and Chemister's Insightimage with Kaya, Orzhov Usurperimage has to be one of the most satisfying things about this deck.  Otherwise, Kaya doesn't feel incredibly impactful, but can still do work by removing even the biggest tokens, pesky 1CMC drops such as Fanatical Firebrandimage, Ghitu Lavarunnerimage, Spear Spewerimage, Dauntless Bodyguardimage, Hunted Witnessimage, Snubhorn Sentryimage, Mist-Cloaked Heraldimage, Siren Stormtamerimage, and Llanowar Elvesimage, just to name a few.
[[
22/01/2019 - Really feeling like this deck only loses to RDW / burn if it gets a horrible draw.  It has been over-performing in those match-ups.  Being able to answer a Risk Factorimage with a Mortifyimage is absolutely key.
22/01/2019
- Deck hasn't managed to secure many 7-X runs in Constructed event, but with more tweaking and testing it could be more consistent.  Biggest issue is that it has absolutely no answers against Nexus of Fateimage and a number of other combo decks.  Ill-Gotten Inheritanceimage may be a worthwhile inclusion.
21/01/2019 - Still trying to work out ways to deal with control.  Added 4x Adanto Vanguardimage and 4x History of Benaliaimage into the sideboard.  Vanguard might not be the best bet against Esper, as the lists tend to run heavy on removal that degenerates creatures, such as Moment of Cravingimage, Cry of the Carnariumimage, and Golden Demiseimage.

 CHANGELOG 

20/01/2019 - Removed 2x The Eldest Rebornimage and 2x Cry of the CarnariumimageAdded 4x Hunted Witnessimage.  Both Eldest and Cry seemed to be underperforming quite heavily in most match-ups.  Hunted Witness has always been quite decent in holding the fort aginst mono red, as it can get value trades and revive as a lifelinker.  Also has strong synergy with Dawn of Hopeimage.  The inclusion felt natural and has been working out well.
