I really like the deck!  I have some suggestions if you want them

Is ghitu encampment necessary? ETB tapped then a small creature that I doubt will scare people away from attacking you.

Thawing Glaciers is a great card to ensure you never run out of lands

Maybe Tormod's Crypt over relic of progenuis? You run some graveyard recursion so maybe cutting your own graveyard off isn't great.

Maybe Comet Storm over starstorm? Hitting precisely what's bothering you could be better than hitting everything

Maybe running Ponder, Preordain and Brainstorm for some card draw. Maybe over artificer's epiphany?

If you have some time I'm running an Izzet deck that I'd love to hear some feedback on, it's Jori En, Diving on a Budget

Thanks!

Hey hoardofnotions! Thanks for looking at the deck and giving me some tips! My take on them:

• Ghitu Encampment is not that important, but the first strike can take people of guard. I haven't had the chance to really try it yet, so I'm not sure if it will stay or not.
• Thawing Glaciers is a nice idea in this deck. I will consider it!
• The crypt is also a viable choice but I prefer the relic in my meta. It usually does not matter that much if my own grave gets exiled, as I'm not depending on it in the same way as a lot of decks in my Meta do.
• I think startstorm offers more in this deck, as you can cycle it and it can hit things this deck can't otherwise hit (since comet storm targets and startstorm does not).
• Ponder and preordain are sorceries and therefore will not enter this deck. Brainstorm is indeed a very good card and might be superior to artificer's epiphany indeed.

I will have a look at your list soon!

Hey, thanks again for all the help with my Jori En deck!

could Dragonlord's Prerogative, Jace's Ingenuity, Keep Watch, Lat-Nam's Legacy, Scour the Laboratory one of these over artificer's epiphany be worth it? I just see the epiphany as the weakest draw spell you have so i keep coming back to it

Izzet Signet over bauble or armilary sphere? mana ramp that's a staple. it's cheaper to get the extra mana than bauble and actually puts you up on mana unlike the sphere. Any Thoughts on a swap?

Have you had good experiences with the 2/1 first strike land?

Thanks for your help!

You are absolutely right about artificer's epiphany. I'm going to delete that one for sure. The alternatives you mention are cool! There are some cards there I did not know existed! I think I'm going to add a bunch of them and see how I feel about them.

I haven't taken this deck out for a spin in a while, because I want to move it in some other direction first. So still no experience with the land :(.

Your comment about the ramp suite is on point as well. I will rethink my card choices and amount in that category. Signet seems like an obvious match with niv's ability too.

Thanks
