My take on Izzet Drakes in GRN Standard, completely foregoing a play-set of Arclight Phoenix. Same well-known strategy a lot of folks are using but with slight tweaks, and a sideboard that focuses on protecting the Drakes from their obvious threats, counter-play, and alternate win cons.

I wanted to find room for Tormenting Voice and Maximize Velocity but ultimately landed on this. There are times I feel like replacing Chemister's Insight with Discovery / Dispersal but we'll see.
