Incinerate is Brimstone Volley from Innistrad
Goblin Guide is Vexing Devil from Avacyn Restored

With 4 mana open, cast Vexing Devil. If your opponent chooses to take the 4 damage, sac the Devil, and cast Volley for 5 more Morbid damage (a total of 9 for 4 mana). If your opponent chooses not to take the 4 damage, swing with the devil until he's forced to deal with him. When he does die, cast the Brimstone Volley.

It's not any fun until someone loses an eye!

Mouseover the image to see the spoiler of Vexing Devil, this kind of coding on posts should be blocked to prevent 'nefarious' people from hijacking the site with their posts!

Yep... 9 damage (possibly) for 4 CMC is not bad at all.

If he hits and swings for 4 once and then gets Exiled, you can still cast the Volley for 3. Seven damage for 4 isn't bad either.
