This is my first proper attempt to build an EDH deck. As soon as i'd seen Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind in the Izzet vs Golgari Duel Deck, I'd always thought he was broken.

Currently, this deck intends to win through drawing a ridiculous number of cards with Brainstorm, Divination, Train of Thought and so on.

If that fails, i can replicate things for the win either through Guttersnipe, Nivix Cyclops, Wee Dragonauts or Sphinx-Bone Wand

I've splashed a few Control Magic type effects mainly for the hilarity it would cause to steal opposing commanders and throw them at people :D

The blinking, bounce and detain type effects are in as a form of removal and to reuse my ETB effects

Any help on making this more competitive would be really appreciated as i have little idea how my EDH meta runs and I've just pieced this together from fun ideas i.e. replicating brainstorm with niv and the djin on the field allows for 15 glorious pings and if the wand is out as well...

Thanks for any help in advance
