Pantheon - Marisi's Twinclaws or Ridgetop Raptor would only deal 16 damage each, if you had both Furnace of Wrath and Quest for Pure Flame in play & activated.
2 dmg * 2 (Furnace) * 2 (Quest) = 8 damage, with double strike, so another 8 = 16 total.

the way i understand it is it doubles any source of damage you control for a turn, making it a great finisher in a burn deck

@Saha: The damage doubling bonus applies to all sources (any source that deals damage) you control until the end of turn.

Does the ability that increases its counters apply to all sources of damage that are dealt. For example, I cast Duress while having two Megrims in play and I successfully make my target discard a card. They would take 2 damage from each Megrim. Would that put two counters on this card?

@ MightyMortox, 2 sources at 16 each, that is 32 @ Eluem, yes a duress with 2 megrim would be 2 counters
awesome in a burn deck, but even better after you cast titanic ultimatum, and use unstable footing to ensure a hurt a big hurt, and you would gain that double dmg back in life with the lifelink
ex. wooly thoctar, this and titanic, that would be 20 dmg, and 20 life for you (10 dmg from pumped up thoctar, doubled, 20, life gain for 20)

I run it right beside my two Doubling Seasons so that I just have to ping my opponent once. Beautiful Doubling this set~

I used this card successfully in a burn deck with Stuffy Doll. You kick off the quest, and lightning bolt your doll for 6 points. The doll redirects it to your opponent for 12 points. So essentially you can some chump with 2 lightning bolts or a single shrapnel blast. The doll is just BS, but the Quest is good with just about everything.

How about with pyromancer ascension? That seems like a great combo, and from lightning bolt to lava axe if you have the mana. Double strike also sounds good like some stated before, there are so many possibilities with this card!

Would a spell that does damage with storm on it such as Grapeshot put more than one quest counter on the enchantment since it is copied with storm and does damage more than once?

Why doesn't this work on planeswalkers with combat damage? Big surprise wizards just made an arbitrary decision to keep the chase cards viable.
But this card is a bomb, especially when you get multiples. Opponent was at 12 from a goblin rush, I had two of these primed and ready, I cast two spells, and Cinder Pyromancer killed him. Didn't even have to attack.

Chandra Nalaar for 20 to your opponent and each of his creatures? jeebus.. This seems a wee bit overpowered for a red burn deck, let alone with either Chandra...

Ok, Magma Phoenix combo'd with Fling. Yay, I just dealt 6 damage to my self and each creature, and 12 damage to my opponent :) I'm just a kicked Burst Lightning away from victory.
one of my personal faves, its quite sexy with Koth of the hammer's -5 ability

Best card evar! I can almost always fill this thing up with small hits over the game and then double Voracious dragon's ability for the kill

Why wait until 4 spells are cast to copy a spell when you can just cast Reverberate instead?
I'd rather have Pyromancer Ascension in my deck than this card. It's easy enough to get the 2 charge counters you need, and you don't have to sacrifice it, so you could potentially get 4 copies of a spell instead of just one. Instead of copying a single spell just once you will be able to copy all of your spells every time you cast them!

4rth turn with this card, chandra's spitfire and 4 mountains in play and 4 one mana direct damagers in hand (lets say shock or lava spike) = Game Over. Imagine now if you managed to put a couple of seals in play in the 2nd turn.

"Why wait until 4 spells are cast to copy a spell when you can just cast Reverberate instead?" 'Cause you 're doing it wrong.
Creature-based damage (a Tim or two, preferably Gelectrodes, which is my personal favourite, or Goblins) will fill it with quest counters. Then it will be cracked to double the damage dealt by all your creatures and burn spells.
Actually, two of those quests fully prepared are a win condition almost by themselves...
As for the Storm mechanic, Grapeshot fits perfectly. Storm spells are separate from one another, not only rewarding you with a counter per point of damage dealt, but also allowing you to crack the quest as soon as it's reached four counters, doubling the output of the rest.

If you get 12 copies of Grapeshot on the stack with this, you can turn on the quest after 4 copies have damaged your opponent and the remaining 8 Grapeshots will remove your opponent's last 16 points of life.
Pyromancer's Swath only needs 7 copies of Grapeshot to kill your opponent, but this quest is cheaper and less risky.

Ah, lovely, a use for Rift Bolt over Lightning Bolt. (You float the bolt the turn before saccing the quest, so you can use all your mana for burning on the doubled turn, as opposed to spending {R} on the lightning bolt)
Easy to use with Keldon Marauders. It's likely they'll give you 3 of the counters themselves. If you get a single other source in there this can help burn get the beloved T3 win.

Furnace of Rath and Double Strike creatures just got a new best friend. Marisi's Twinclaws or Ridgetop Raptor would deal 32 points of damage with both in play! Sweet!
2 dmg * 2 (Furnace) * 2 (Quest) = 8 damage, with double strike, so another 8 = 16 total.

Favourite Turn 2 win:
1) Desperate Ritual.
2) Seething Song.
3) Cast 2 Quests.
4) Grapeshot.
5) Crack the quests as soon as they hit 4 counters.
6) Lightning Bolt.
7) ???
8) Profit!!!
