This is such a cool deck +1 from me. However, I have some question. The combo between Niv and Curiosity is very good, but you only have one of each, so can you trigger it very often? If not, I would suggest to focus on the other infinite combos and add cards like Intuition, and even the fourth Brainstorm, also, Sensei's Divining Top to let you cycle your top deck. Also, if you can afford, a playste of fetches likes Flooded Strand or Wooded Foothills, just to shuffle your deck and increase the chances of draw the needed pieces.This are only my thoughts, I would love to hear your feedback.

This is an interesting deck. It makes good use of Ral Zarek, but some cards I'm not too fond of, however, I haven't tested your deck against meta decks within the legacy format, so my dislikes are more so in personal taste. How are you doing against some of the meta decks in legacy?

There is a user who plays Ral Zarek in a stasis deck and it's incredible. Check it out. He has solid results within the legacy meta.

Thank you for the upvote and the suggestions. I have been toying with the idea of removing the Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind /Curiosity combo as I admittedly do not pull it off as much as I would like to. I loved your suggestion of Intuition, it's a card I completely forgot about. I have been working on the mana base quite a bit (I tend to over think things), where it stands right now I feel comfortable with the mana base, however I believe I might try four more fetches specifically Flooded Strand as more shuffling and thinning is always appreciated. I have been trying out a Sensei's Divining Top, I thought I put it in the maybeboard but it seems I did not so I will have to fix that. I will be trying different builds over the course of the next few days with the suggestions you have made as well as other suggestions that have been made to me. I cannot thank you and the tappedout community enough for the support and suggestions.

Thank you so much for checking out my deck, it definitely needs some tweaking. I just very recently finished this iteration of the deck so I haven't yet gotten the chance to test it at my local meta, however, I will be posting the results of each iteration I bring to the meta. I gave that deck a look and I must say it is truly incredible and thus gave it a well deserved upvote. In the early stages of the building of this deck I tried many different and odd approaches to using and abusing Ral Zarek as much as I could, one of which was in fact Stasis. I ended up putting it down as I fell in love with the idea of using the turns I get from Ral Zarek to set up and set off another combo, however, I have begun to feel that I may need to cut the Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind combo. After looking at that deck I must say I feel inspired to perhaps even try Stasis again but still keeping true to my infinite turn combo. I can't thank you enough for taking the time to look at my deck the support thus far has been wonderful and more appreciated than I could begin to describe. I hope that you and others will keep tabs on my deck as I continue to work on it and refine it, thank you again.

I do hope this deck works out. It seems to be really weak against blue. Force of Will, Daze, Spell Pierce, and other counter spells will probably eat your combo alive; unless you can Force of Will/Counterspell their counter spells at the right time. I hope it gets great results! You should definitely try out the stasis build at some point. It's getting somewhat popular. It wont ever be tier one, but it will be annoying. Haha.
