Izzet(U/R) control/burn. The idea is to flood the board with your elemental tokens and deal direct burn damage to your opponent while your Guttersnipe just helps you along the way.

Cards to look out for in your opening hand: Delver of Secrets is amazing in a hand with at least, one blue and one red mana source. The chances of your next draw being a Instant or Sorcery is high, so a turn 2, 3/2 flyer isn't all that hard to come by.Electrolyze is a fantastic board clear early on against tricky 1 toughness creatures. The cycling of this card is it's true power though. Burn them, for potentially another burn in hand. Either, a Guttersnipe or a Young Pyromancer is almost a must in your first hand. It sets the tone of your first 5 turns. With Guttersnipe being a more offensive start, and Young Pyromancer being a more defensive. Lastly, Turn / Burn is a monster of a card. It's effectively a 5 cost, kill any creature on the board (as long as its not hexproof). Whats that? your Tajic, Blade of the Legion is attacking with the rest of your Boros agro? Let me just Turn it... and then block it with the generated 1/1 elemental. Turn / Burn is such a useful combat trick.
