Update 1 —Nov. 17, 2012

Alrighty, so I finally have a finalized decklist (aside from the mana base, which is what i will be working on figuring out now. I input a bunch of basic lands and 9 misty rainforest just to block out how i want to divide it up. I'm thinking 6-9 fetch lands, 2/3's of the remaining lands produce colored mana, and 1/3 producing colorless or colored with a drawback), and here it is below:

Creature (20) 1x Acidic Slime 1x Artisan of Kozilek 1x Consecrated Sphinx 1x Deceiver Exarch 1x Djinn Illuminatus 1x Eternal Witness 1x Gaea's Revenge 1x Guile 1x Hypersonic Dragon 1x Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker 1x Lighthouse Chronologist 1x Maelstrom Wanderer 1x Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind 1x Pestermite 1x Phyrexian Metamorph 1x Riku of Two Reflections 1x Snapcaster Mage 1x Taurean Mauler 1x Tidespout Tyrant

Land (36) 12x Forest 12x Island 12x Mountain

Instant (19) 1x Boomerang 1x Brainstorm 1x Cerebral Vortex 1x Counterflux 1x Counterspell 1x Cyclonic Rift 1x Dissipate 1x Gigadrowse 1x Harrow 1x Mystical Tutor 1x Noxious Revival 1x Redirect 1x Reiterate 1x Reroute 1x Reverberate 1x Swerve 1x Twincast 1x Voidslime 1x Wild Ricochet

Enchantment (4) 1x Cast Through Time 1x Cloven Casting 1x Mana Reflection 1x Mirror Sheen

Sorcery (16) 1x Decimate 1x Drain Power 1x Explosive Vegetation 1x Farseek 1x Insurrection 1x Ponder 1x Revive 1x Rite of Replication 1x Serum Visions 1x Shattering Spree 1x Temporal Mastery 1x Time Spiral 1x Time Stretch 1x Tooth and Nail 1x Train of Thought 1x Vacuumelt

Artifact (6) 1x Isochron Scepter 1x Mirari 1x Mirror Gallery 1x Panoptic Mirror 1x Sensei's Divining Top 1x Sol Ring

So there's one infinite combo in this deck, and that is Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Pestermite/Deceiver Exarch. Other wise, its kind of a troll deck. Theres lots of control, lots of taking extra turns, and lots and lots of copying spells. And while it seems fun, I don't want to pump money into this to have it not win, so I am still looking for more win conditions, I don't mind infinite combos at all, and my play group isn't a bunch of cry babies so even for casual play theyre alright.

So, in summary:

1) I am looking for more win conditions 2) ways to make this deck more competitive 3) and land suggestions. I know about the dual lands and the shocklands and all that jazz, I'm hoping for suggestions for lands with added utility.

Thanks!

why do you have Force of Will and only basic lands? also, you have 2 Voidslime s. Needs Reroute and Guile .

why are u running the signet over green ramp spells that you can copy i play riku as one of my favorite decks and casting an explosive vegetation copied is just great also consider rain of thorns one of the greatest things to copy as it doesn't have target restrictions like decimate. still run decimate its a fantastic card

There are only basic lands cuz i havent had time to fiddle with the mana base, i do that just so i can hi the card count. and yeah i get what you mean, i'll switch out the signets for ramp spells and guiles and stuff

Have you considered Mirror Gallery ? It seems like it would be fun to be able to copy your Nivs and your kiki-jiki.
