So this is a midrange Izzet deck that I have used very successfully in casual and tournament play. I have been working on it for a long time, and help would be much appreciated!So, here's how this deck works. Turn 1 or 2, I have burn or counters to keep aggro down ( Lightning Bolt , Searing Blood , and Magma Jet ), then turn three I can throw out a Guttersnipe and slowly whittle them down from there. Alternatively, if I'm playing against a slower deck I can easily switch tactics and go for Sigiled Starfish and Nivix Guildmage to filter through my deck and make sure I have what I need to handle my opponent. This is really what I love about Izzet; it's so versatile and I have been able to take down all kinds of Modern and Standard decks with it.
