Introducing my take on the Niv-Mizzet edh deck build, enjoy.

You will like this deck if you like:

combos - the only way to win with this deck is with combos, nothing else.

being the archenemy - if you win the first match, everyone starts trying to kill you in the next few matches

having no friends - ever since i started playing this deck, my facebook friends dropped from 13 friends to 5.

control - this deck does nothing other than control and combo

The combos:

Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind + Ophidian Eye

Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind + Tandem Lookout

Curiosity + Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind

Ophidian Eye,Tandem Lookout and Curiosity all have one thing in common, they allow you to draw a card whenever the enchanted/soulbonded creature deals damage, this means any damage dealt other than combat damage will still net you a card draw . Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind says "Whenever you draw a card, Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind deals 1 damage to target creature or player.". with any of the enchantments/creature and Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind you can draw your entire library, dealing damage equal to the number of cards in your library to your opponents.

What if I don't have enough cards in my deck to kill my opponents?

If you target a creature with Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind 's ability, Ophidian Eye,Tandem Lookout and Curiosity will not trigger. Draw until you have no cards in your library and target any creature with the last trigger, this way, you will not lose the game due to not being able to draw a card. Then, cast Laboratory Maniac with your 0 mana mana rocks and cast any card draw. Laboratory Maniac replacement effect will resolve and you will win the game.

Still testing this list, so cards will change from time to time.

P.S. My facebook friends didn't decrease and I didn't lose any friends playing this deck.
