The idea behind this deck is not to use storm, because that takes too long and my playgroup turns to their phones, and instead either murder them with a bunch of Guttersnipe / Chandra Torch of Defiance ult triggers, or slay them with a huge Exsanguinate / Torment of Hailfire. There is one 'infinite' combo with paradox engine and capsize, but that's it (as far as I know). The rest of the deck is a value engine, using things like Sunbird's Invocation and Primal amulet to get the most out of our spells, while having board wipes and Nicol Bolas(s) to keep our oppenents under control. Minimal counter spells because we want to be able to cast as many spells as possible during our turn .
