I ran an Izzet aggro deck at my last FNM and I'd like to improve upon it. The primary focus was to pump up Monastery Swiftspear + Stormchaser Mage with instants, or to get out Zada, Hedron Grinder and some goblin tokens. I had a black splash in the sideboard for Duress + Murderous Cut , and I needed those most of the time. I'd like to remove Zada from the equation and include a larger creature base than last time. I still plan on running Monastery Swiftspear + Scab-Clan Berserker + Stormchaser Mage . I want to keep this relatively budget (as far as upgrades go), so my land base will probably take the biggest hit here. Suggestions are more than welcome, and thanks in advance.
