Here is my list, I looked at a bunch of lists on mtgtop.com for RDW, and this is what I came up with. Oh yes, I just got back into magic in february after a 14 year hiatus, basically if has not been in standard (scars block till now), I am not very familiar with it, and any sideboard suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 4 x Goblin Guide  4 x Vexing Devil  3 x Grim Lavamancer  2 x Spark Elemental  3 x Hellspark Elemental  3 x Ash Zealot  2 x Keldon Marauders  4 x Lightning Bolt  4 x Rift Bolt  3 x Lava Spike  3 x Searing Blaze  3 x Shard Volley  2 x Flames of the Blood Hand  4 x Arid Mesa  4 x Teetering Peaks  12 x Mountain  A lot of these cards I traded for or bought as singles. I could not find ANY relic of progenitus, so I have 2 Tormod's Crypt for my opponents graveyard. I also have 2 Torpor Orb and was thinking about 4 Leyline of Sanctity because it looks good for a free enchantment (if in your opening hand). I am going to my first modern tournament

Cut Sparky and Marauders for 4 Boggart Ram-Gang  . Marauders is only really solid if your shooting for a Burn deck. On that same vien, cut Lava Spike for a 4th Searing Blaze and Zealot / Hellspark number 4. Vexing Devil should probably a curve filler like Figure of Destiny  or just some aggressive 1-drop like Tattermunge Maniac  . If you can swing for 4 more fetchlands ( Scalding Tarn  ), Plated Geopede  might be an option.

I did add the 4th ash zealot right before the tournament, cutting the marauders, and adding j a 4th lava spike. The lava spikes are coming out as I found them quite blah. I think I would have preferred 4 incinerates..... Which probably suck in modern. I actually have 2 figure of destiny at my LGS, I will be picking them up this week. What is your opinion of Stormblood Berserker  in modern, and also Lightning Mauler  ?

I've never been a fan of Mauler, outside a stint in a BR Zombie list I had for Standard before I wised up again. Berserker seems solid, a posible 3/3 evasive 2-drop is always good. I might use it in A Rg RDW build along with some other Bloodthirsty dudes so I could justify the Seal of Fire  support if you wiff on a 1-drop but have a guy in hand for turn 2. I don't know how well a list like that would do though. IMHO, there's nothing wrong with Incinerate. I'd be more inclinded to go with Burst Lightning  though. Shock early game, late game a possible finisher, or just an answer for 4 thoughness creatures. Though, if you really just want to off creatures and don't care about the reach, Flame Slash  is tech.
