This is my first take on an Izzet control deck. It might not be as fashionable or as competitive as Esper or UW, but it should be fun nonetheless.

Keranos is what got me brewing this up to begin with. Basically the idea is to blow up/counter any threats that come your way and eventually win with Prognostic Sphinx/Niv-Mizzet/Keranos. In most games, Keranos won't be ever activated, and if he is, you were probably going to win anyway. This nice thing is that he doesn't particularly need to be.

Also, I decided to go with Prognostic Sphinx over Aetherling. He costs one less, has flying in case he needs to be blocking, scrys like crazy, and has a magnificent beard. Aetherling is most likely better, but he's everywhere so I decided to go with the oddball pick.

Like it? Love it? Hate it? Let me know! Suggestions are always welcome!
