Hi,
I personally don't like Brain Freeze since if you don't quite make it then it was sorta a waste where others get them nearly dead if you just fell short and any manland cheap/cantrip burn will finish off. I also typically run 1-3 fatties as well since all the mana dumps those out too plus back up win condition.
You'll notice most of the listed cards are basically powered staples, so adding a few narrow archetype cards (some storm spells, LID, a few rituals) plus some close enough replacements (Pacts, Snuff Out, Fireblast, Rift Bolt, Gut Shot) you get a fun to play archetype without to much impact on overall cube. And I have drafted decks that kill turn 4 easily. I even turn 5 killed with Grapeshot if you can believe it.
Thanks!
