This is my first deck. Please let me know if there are any changes you would recommend!

I am trying to make this the most competitive deck I can at the “casual” level and also to win without using any combos.

With this deck I want to win in a dramatic fashion.

The idea is to ramp quickly, never miss a land drop, and overload Mizzix’s Mastery and then kill the whole table with Chandra’s Ignition.

My backup plan is to set off Crackle With Power at an x value of 4 (or higher) with a copy spell or ability.

There are a couple combos in here for infinite damage / mana / draw but those are for emergency use only.

I don’t have Thousand Year Storm in here because of its higher CMC and because I get lost tracking the storm count and slow down the table.
