I'm working on converting this Izzet from Vintage to Modern (and lamenting the loss of Brainstorm and Mystical Tutor). Originally the win conditions were an unblockable Kiln Fiend or a triple-casted Thunderous Wrath , but now I'm looking to see what else I can do. Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh   I'm really eager to use and I simply love the Izzet colors together, I'm just needing to pare down the card list a little. I haven't played this one yet as it's too new, but input is welcomed with open arms!
