Kiln Fiend and Young Pyromancer can be exceptionally powerful additions to Izzet-themed decks, and Nivix Cyclops runs in that same vein. In burn decks, War Elemental can get pretty huge, although it is somewhat vulnerable to removal.

You are right. Those are all good creatures. But if you read my description you'd know that I'm not trying to deal damage with creatures. My goal is to get insane damage combos with Epic Experiment and Grapeshot or something like that :)

Also if I hit any creature with Epic Experiment it's a wasted card.

Hey there ! Firstable I have to point out that Grapeshot's copies do not make guttersnipe's effect proc because they are not cast, simply placed on the stack.I feel your deck is going in too many different directions : you are playing a set of 5+ cmc instant and sorceries that does not synergize well with guttersnipe or grapeshot since you will not likely cast many instant or sorceries unless you have melek or Galvanoth out, which you cannot rely on because the deck is not focused on control and you don't have ,any ways to prevent their removal.So maybe you want to go towards a deck with lower cmc cards that keeps triggering guttersnipe and stuff or it needs to have more control and only a few finishers.Anyway the whole idea is fun ! I just don't think it's very functional in it's present state.

Thanks for your Feedback :) You are right of course, my bad.

And you might also be right that it's not very compedible but I usually don't play a lot of tournaments and it's still a very fun deck to play :D

It all depends on your meta of course, it's never fun if your deck is too strong for your friends, or too weak.

Whats your budget? I can help if I know that. Lightning Bolt, Magma Jet, and Guttersnipe need to be here. You should have at least the khans life lands.Searing Wind seems to expensive to cast. Chandra, the Firebrand should be here to copy spells with her -2 ability. Other then that it's great!
