Melek is so much fun. Izzet overall is a great type to play. The other day I had Niv Mizzet out and an echo mage leveled up, my opponent played a blue suns zenith for 6, I copied it twice, drew 12 cards and delt 12 to him!

fyi Mox Sapphire is banned. Likely you knew this but you may have some people refuse to play you with that in the deck.

Since I don't have 3000 spare dollars for that Sapphire Mox, I replaced it with Fated Conflagration

A couple suggestions that I've found very good in Melek:
- Turnabout can generate absurd amounts of mana. If you sequence things correctly, you can frequently play it 5+ times in a storm turn.
- Some amount of additional graveyard recursion for spells might be useful. Some options there could be Mystic Retrieval, Pull from the Deep, Mizzix's Mastery or Snapcaster Mage. I wouldn't run all of them, but 1-2 might be useful.
- Mizzix of the Izmagnus is still pretty good in the 99. May or may not be as worth it when you're balancing between storm and value creatures, but it might be worth a shot at some point if you're looking to mix things up.

Melek is such a fun commander. And even more fun when you go up against another one! All the shenanigans!
