What are the most efficient forms of burn and artifact mana in extended? I've tried to make a decklist.

4 Fire Diamond
4 Grim Monolith
4 Thran Dynamo
2 Temporal Aperture

4 Tangle Wire
4 Incinerate
4 Voltaic Key
4 Wildfire

3 Masticore
4 Covetous Dragon
2 Phyrexian Collosus
1 Crater Hellion

4 Ancient Tomb
16 Mountains

Any comments are welcome.

Colossus isn't needed, it's usually too expensive anyways. Maybe add Metalworker? Even though it dies to Wildfire, it can provide a pretty good mana boost. Oh and that new Torment card Overmancer might help force a wilfire through against counters. Mishra's Helix and Winter Orb, might be good additions, I use them in mine. But, i'm not sure what u would cut, and it may be overkill if you keep the Tangle Wires.

Earthquake is the most efficient burn since most creatures don't fly and the Earthquake goes to the dome also.

Kaerveck's Torch and Urza's Rage probably come in next since the damage is hard to avoid.

Then Fireball and Longhorn Firebeast.

Thanks for the help, here is a revised decklist.

4 Fire Diamond
4 Grim Monolith
4 Thran Dynamo
2 Temporal Aperture

3 Earthquake
4 Incinerate
4 Voltaic Key
4 Wildfire
2 Mishra's Helix

4 Covetous Dragon
3 Masticore
2 Phyrexian Collosus

4 Ancient Tomb
16 Mountains

I really like the Colossus because a turn 3 or 4 Collossus isn't unheard of!

Any other help would be pleasantly received.

What about city of traitors ?.
This card is...PERFECT..for your deck. Imagine this, u have like two lands,-it will not die.
Ok, lets say u have more lands-its still great.
Play it on turn one for example, and play a Diamond, Key, Aperture or Monolith. Then on turn two, use two mana again, play a new land and start the pummel..and by the way, u dont take two. I´ve never liked the Tomb, taking two is like asking for a beatdown

Okay, switch the tombs for city of traitors.

cursed scroll

I would definitely go up to a full compliment of Masticores and Cursed Scolls, removing the Temporal Apertures and some Earthquake/Helix.

I can't get any cursed scrolls unless someone would like to make an offer at 'Newbie to trading' in the classic trading post.
