With only 3 Hydroid Krasis creatures the deck can exploit the Search for Azcanta   + Wilderness Reclamation combo pretty hard. The rest is pretty obvious. Clear the board with Gates Ablaze , get a ton of land, drop Ral/Krasis and nexus for the win. Side board is pretty straight forward too. Archway Angel in vs aggro, Disdainful Stroke in vs midrange decks, Negate and Banefire in vs control. If you don't have Hydroid Krasis or Search for Azcanta   and are on a budget you can swap them for Niv-Mizzet, Parun and Guild Summit respectively. I would change the mana base up a little to favor Izzet in that case. Any thoughts, suggestions, questions are welcome.
