' ...[The Izzet League] defies such tedious concepts as "good enough" and "laboratory safety"... '
Izzet Prowess!
Unlike a lot of decks, it doesn't have much of a backup plan. This deck doesn't revolve around one key card, which means that Infinite Obliteration is fairly useless against it, and due to the low CMC, (about 1.9) you will be able to easily replace creatures that your opponents kill.
Due to obvious budget reasons, Jace, Vryn's Prodigy has been banned from this deck...
In an ideal world I would have some jaces in it though...
Also, Prowess is really strong at the moment.
Although we lost Monastery Swiftspear, we got some ideal cards in Oath of the Gatewatch. Expedite, Slip Through Space are all great, as well as a load of fairly versatile sideboard cards.
There are some amazing Prowess cards from the other sets as well, Abbot of Keral Keep for example. Play that on T3, exile an Expedite, and you have drawn a card, and now have a 3/2 with haste and prowess for . Not Bad.
Lands are good as well, we have Shivan Reef , and Wandering Fumarole . On the note of Wandering Fumarole , the lack of one-drop creatures allow me to play that on turn one.
This is a great card. I mentioned this earlier, but i'll repeat it: Play it on T3, exile an Expedite (Hopefully!), and you have drawn a card, and now have a 3/2 with haste and prowess for .
This can also be extremely powerful. It should be easy to surge it due to the amount of one-drops. It's haste is not that relevant but the +1 until end of turn can be devastating
Although it's not related to prowess or izzet, this works well in this deck. We have around 20 instants and sorceries, most of which are red, and we have red creatures etc. This makes it very easy to flip it, into Chandra, Roaring Flame . This is a good planeswalker, providing both removal, and a crushing ultimate. And you get 3 damage just from flipping it!
Not a huge amount to say about this, but it's not a bad card! A 1/3 with flying and haste and prowess for just ?
R.I.P. Monastery Swiftspear
To me, this looks like an obvious include. With prowess, it basically gives a creature +4/+2 until end of turn, while allowing you to scry for only .
Pretty self-explanatory. Activates prowess as well as drawing you a card.
Same as Slip Through Space. Also goes really well if you exile it with Abbot of Keral Keep .
Great removal. It will almost always be able to use 'Spell Mastery', and it can also be used to finish off your opponent.
Same as above...
Given that this deck is only two colours, we rarely have a problem with getting the right mana. So using some basics is fine.
The lack of one-drop creatures allows us to play this on Turn 1, then providing either colour T2.
The Painlands are great. You can pay generic costs normally with the first abillity, or you can pay just one life to have either colour, without it entering tapped.
