I would consider swapping out Wizard's Retort for Jwari Disruption  ^Flip. the cost reduction seems hit and miss with only 6 wizards in the deck, i know jwari is only effective if an opponent completely taps out, but in many cases i find the spells you want to counter are the big game ending bombs which usually cost alot to cast. and if you cant find a target to counter atleast its a land. unless im missing some synergy with the retort thats my suggestion. also i would consider swapping out Mystic Confluence with Izzet Charm. it has a much lower casting cost, it is a choice card, and one of the choices fit your wheel effect theme. its a cool deck, i recently put a locust god deck together, he is fun to play.

The reason I said I would go down 1 Spell Snare is because, just in my personal opinion, I think it is best when used as a one of when you run 4 copies of Snapcaster Mage. You also have another copy in the sideboard so running 2 in the main is just a lot overall and could get you into trouble in certain matchups that coincidentally don't have many 2 CMC cards worth countering.

I think I would also consider running Aether Gust or more copies of Ceremonious Rejection in the in the sideboard in place of Mystical Dispute and Essence Scatter. I believe Essence Scatter in particular can be replaced with really anything because it doesn't seem super relevant to counter creature spells when you have 4 Lightning Bolt, 1 Abrade, 1 Izzet Charm, 1 Magmatic Sinkhole, and 1 Flame Slash for removal and you can easily flash those back too with Snapcaster Mage. Essence Scatter just seems super redundant.

I like running force in the sideboard, and Spell Snare is in the deck because a lot of the mean modern creatures are 2 drops, and its a nice hard counter. Serum Visions is a good way to flip Thing in the Ice  ^Flip because it's one mana cantrip. Although i will consider putting in an Izzet Charm over Remand.

Thanks!

Love me some Thing in the Ice  ^Flip decks. If it was me, I would -1 Spell Snare and -1 Remand for +1 Serum Visions and +1 Izzet Charm. Also, I would consider putting Force of Negation in the deck.

DemonDragonJ on Charms or Split Cards?

I currently have in my red/blue/green deck a copy of both Izzet Charm and Simic Charm, which I put in that deck because of their versatility, but I find that they are useful only on occasion.

I am contemplating replacing those cards with Expansion / Explosion and Repudiate / Replicate, because those cards will be far more useful in that deck (specifically, for the first mode of the first card and the second mode of the second card), but I wish to seek the advice of the other members of this forum before I make such a change. What does everyone else think about this? Should I replace those two cards?

I am contemplating replacing Izzet Charm with Expansion / Explosion and Simic Charm with Repudiate / Replicate, because the split cards would work far better in this deck than would the charms; what does everyone else think about that?

There two things you must consider before investing in the deck: the path you want to take(control, aggro, spellslinger, delver...) and if you want to be budget.

Aside from that there's a few cards that might end up helping you improve your deck:

• Young Pyromancer - An excellent two drop that's great in any instant/sorcery heavy deck as it can provide great board as the game goes on.

• Arclight Phoenix - Though a bit expensive, it's an excellent threat to pressure your opponent with.

• Izzet Charm - Basically the replacement for Faithless Looting. May not be as efficient of a card draw spell as the looting was, but it has great versatility that will definitely come in handy in a lot of situations.

Opt, Serum Visions, Fatal Push, Spell Snare, Mishra's Bauble and Inquisition of Kozilek are perfect cheap spells.

You only need 3 of Tasigur and Gurmag combined and even Pyromancer can be cut down to 2. Sprite Dragon is a great substitute.

You can cut down Stubborn Denial, Izzet Charm, Think Twice and Vapor Snag completely and Mana Leak down to 2-3. Countersquall, Drown in the Loch and Archmage's Charm are great alternatives.
