When you cast they burn, you copy they burn some more.

Nivmagus Elemental cast early to block, pump later by sacking cast copies through cipher.

Dual Casting, pump Nivmagus Elemental with 1(R) + tap by sacking the copy. Or dodge a counter spell by copying the countered spell and sack the original to pump Nivmagus Elemental . Additionally double up the burn of Thunderous Wrath , especially for its miracle cost for only 1(R).

Guttersnipe strikes for 2 every time a instant/sorcery is cast, this includes copies from cipher.

Pyroconvergence deals 2 to player or creature every time a Paranoid Delusions copy is cast. Also it gives Niv-Magus Elemental purpose in late game by having it double as a 2 damage burn for 1(R/U) in addition to being a chump blocker.

Hidden Strings Great to untap your creatures, trigger Guttersnipe, or sack for Nivmagus Elemental .

Thunderous Wrath purely for burn.

Nightveil Specter to steal opponents library.

Mercurial Chemister is great late game to refill the hand and to throw Thunderous Wrath for six damage, for hard to remove creatures, instead of five and for one red and a tapped creature.

Ring of Evos Isle to protect creatures with ciphered spells; 2(colorless) to give hexproof. Indestructible would be better, but hey hexproof ain't bad.
