The kind people of Tapped Out have given me a new direction for this deck: Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind + Curiosity win situation. So, I have some blockers to protect me whilst I wait, as well as back-up plans of Flying and Burn based cards. Lots of card draw too to speed up the deck a touch. Also added some Laboratory Maniac s to use my main combo’s self-mill to my advantage.

Fog Bank and Lightning Bolt are used as early-game defence, as well as Wall of Stone and Dissolve .

Mid-Game I play Fluxcharger and Spellbound Dragon and whatnot. As well as Devil's Play and Comet Storm just for good measure.

Late game is controlled by Tokens from The Locust God , which combos with Mercurial Chemister , as well as Windreader Sphinx (also combos with The Locust God nicely), and Flameblast Dragon , each of which brings their own strategy to the deck. Not to mention my Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind + Curiosity combo.

Anyways, any and all help is appreciated.
