Funny deck to play !

A few Huge permanent to drop, like Omniscience, Worldspine Wurm, Stormtide Leviathan ...

To reveal theese permanents full potential we got of course Unexpected Result but also Blast of Genius. The blast have many uses here, drawing cards, removal, finisher ...

We have acces to card advantage with Mercurial Chemister, Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius, Urban Evolution ... However, this draws comes out a bit late, that's why we play some versatile removals main deck such as Izzet Charm, Searing Spear, Burn.

Theese 3 removal can be usefull against either aggro decks and planeswalker-oriented control decks.

We can have some difficult matchups against aggros decks of the format, that's why the sideboard is aggro-oriented with 4 Pillar of Flame, 2 more Mizzium Mortar and 2 Rolling Temblor.After sidebaording, we can have access to victory against few aggro archetypes such as Red deck win, gruul aggro, naya blitz, bant auras ...

Try it, enjoy (or hate) and comment it :)

Note : I was thinking about adding 1 or 2 Primal Surge for the fun :p
