*I seem to have misplaced my second Izzet Charm so running Turn / Burn as a replacement flexible option for the tournament to deal with large creatures or small ones or just burn if needed. It also helps flesh out both the 2 and 3 CC parts of the curve which are a bit low on spell counts

**On the lands it has been suggested that I shouldn't run any off colour fetches but I find that in this aggressive build the two blue ones I run here are basically an Island for negligible pain plus upside potential if you really need a Steam Vents (on opponent's end step if holding up mana for instant and no need to cast anything)

Comments please on Turn / Burn as a temporary stand in for Izzet Charm and the mana base!

This is my take on UR Delver. Trying to keep the curve super low and efficient to keep land count low. Is between a RDW or burn deck and tempo. Snapcaster Mage and Grim Lavamancer for closing out games that go to the midgame.

For sideboard, trying to stick to instants and sorceries to provide fuel for Snapcaster Mage and Young Pyromancer and non-creatures to provide prowess for Monastery Swiftspear.

Comments helpful - particularly on the Remand / Mana Leak / Spell Snare / Vapor Snag / Izzet Charm counts; and on making sideboard more streamlined!
