Key card
Storm, Force of Nature
Storm, Force of Nature is the commander of the deck and is one of the best options for a storm boss out there. As long as it deals combat damage to a player, next moment or spell has storm.
If you give a spell that already has storm another instance of the storm ability, you'll basically double the number of copies. For example, if you cast four spells and cast a storm spell like Grapeshot, four copies will be created on cast. These copies resolve and then the second storm trigger goes off, giving a total of eight copies before the original spell resolves.
Because Storm, Force of Nature is pretty easy to cast, duh can provide a spellstorm to help you ramp up early in the game. To help close games you can give cards with powerful effects storm to close the game such as Flash to deal with lots of burns or Ice storm to destroy your opponents' lands.
Rituals
A ritual is a spell that gives you mana equal to or greater than the amount of mana used to cast it. They are either mana-positive or neutraland in the case of storm, act as a way to cast a spell for free as you get back the mana you spent on them instantly.
You want to cast rituals as you prepare for a great storm to resolve. In general, they don't give you a ton of mana to make it worth casting a spell a little faster and are better suited to raising the number of storms.
Blast Furnace Artist
As the name suggests, Blast Furnace Artist is a good support card for storm decks. For its magecraft ability, you will get a Treasure token on each trigger. A storm tire need a lot of mana to work with so they can cast lots of spellsso collecting Treasure tokens helps to have many ways to generate mana.
With magecraft, it is triggered by either casting or copying an instant spell or spell. If a card with storm spawns copies, each copy will trigger the magecraft ability, allowing for lots of triggers from one spell.
For spells that only cost one mana, Storm-Kiln Artist makes them mana neutralwhich allows you to basically get a free spell while being able to turn the mana used into mana of any color.
Archmage Emeritus
A The downside to a storm deck is that it can run out of cards in your hand very fast. This is something that Archmage Emeritus helps to correct. Its magecraft ability will draw you a card, helping to keep your hand full so you never run out.
When you play cantrips (one-mana spells that draw a card), Archmage Emeritus turns them into two-for-ones. If you ever cast a storm spell, Archmage Emeritus will draw you tons of cards as it will consider all copies for its magecraft ability. This helps you have a full hand even if you don't win on the turn you storm off to try again the next turn.

How to play the deck
A Storm, Force of Nature tires want build up resources by ramping and getting mana generators onto the battlefield early to be able to cast lots of spells in just one turn. You want to wait to start building up your storm count until you have a storm payout in hand, otherwise you'll be casting spells for nothing.
Short as letting you cast spells from your graveyard are importantas they help you cast your cheap spells and rituals again to increase the number of storms. Underground Breach, Past in Flames, and Six all help achieve this by giving your spells different abilities that let you cast them from the graveyard, usually for a different cost.
You want to get permanents that quickly discount your spells on the battlefieldas it helps to cast spells more easily and to make various spells mana positive when they would otherwise be neutral. Goblin Anarchomancer, Goblin Electromancer, and The talent of the artist everyone helps them achieve this goal.
The the primary win condition for a Storm, Force of Nature deck is to win with a powerful storm enchantment. You can burn everyone out of the game with Lighting bolt in view of storm, or Grapeshot with dual storm triggers. You can also use Aetherflux Reservoir to burn players out of the game by paying 50 lives. Many storm cards can create creatures such as Elemental Eruption, Empty Warrens, and Chatterstorm, which can win the game by flooding the battlefield with so many creatures that your opponents won't be able to handle them all.
The The biggest downside to the deck is that you often have poor defense. There aren't many creatures in the deck because they would dilute your ability to storm. This can be countered by using a token creation spell to create blockers to protect you from opponents. You are likely to be targets also, due to the natural power that storm decks have, and can easily run away with the game if left unchecked.
