What in Niv-Mizzet's name is going on here?!

Let me break it down.

Melek, Izzet Paragon was one of my favorite cards in Dragon's Maze. But this deck takes the tricks Melek can pull to a whole new level.

Melek, Izzet Paragon

While Melek is in play, you play with the top card of your library revealed and can not only cast that spell, but copy it. In conjunction with a deck full of one- and two-mana draw spells, you can rip through your deck at lightning pace, as each Thought Scour mills you for four cards and draws you two and each Desperate Ravings adds two more cards into your hand. Furthermore, you can even cast instant-speed cards between the copies resolving, helping you hit spells over and over.

Now, normally, just churning through your deck quickly wouldn't get you very far. You end up with a lot of things happening... but the end result doesn't actually get you that far ahead.

Enter Laboratory Maniac.

Laboratory Maniac

Suddenly, moving card after card out of your deck seems a lot more interesting.

Weird? Indeed! Crazy? Absolutely. Fun? Definitely!
