This is a nice decklist, I like a lot of the ideas you have in here (like E.Bridge and Furnace of Rath), But I think your mana curve might be a little too high for the amount of lands you play.

1CC - 13
2CC - 4
3CC - 11
4CC - 10
XCC - 2

62 cards, 22 lands. My gut feeling is that you should cut 1 Furnace and 1 Violent Eruption, or 2 Furnaces.

I think it works well - because your firecats can attack under the bridge...

And you don't have to worry about killing them with your Starstorms...

and it has Flashback...;)

I'd throw a couple big boom cards in there as well. Something which does hoop load of damage to all creatures and players. Reason being generally you should be ahead on the life total so eating 6 (as with a pyroclasm) won't hurt you as much as your opponent. Sorry I can't give you any specific suggestions as they've blocked my beloved crystalkeep at the proxy....bungholes.

Drop a bridge. Because all decks that use an artifact of that kind such as Millstone, Static orb, Winter orb, they all establish some sort of lockdown. You usually only need three in the deck. I played 4 Static orb in my opposition orb deck and I always had 1 extra sitting in my hand. IDK, Just a suggestion

Wht about Chain of plasma for your 2CC slot. It is a little lacking.........
