This is a casual Izzet token deck made using only cards I already own that weren't being used in other decks.

Hidden Strings is extremely versatile in this deck. It can untap the lands used to cast it, essentially making it free. It can target Akroan Crusader to produce hasty soldier tokens. It triggers the "whenever you cast an instant or sorcery..." abilities on Young Pyromancer, Nivix Cyclops, and Talrand, Sky Summoner. Best of all, its Cipher ability allows you to do this repeatedly!

Ogre Battledriver is there to make the tokens you generate that much more threatening.

In the early game, Weapon Surge and Teleportal can be used to trigger Akroan Crusader and make tokens. If you draw them later when you already have an army of tokens, you can overload them for massive damage.

Stoke the Flames can often be cast cheaply with plenty of tokens to tap for Convoke.

An overloaded Dragonshift can turn your army of 1/1 tokens into 4/4 flying dragons for a great finisher.
