i was actualy running that combo before but it forced the deck to be more burn heavy and lose some if the utility or late game.

Come on, If your running dragon, you have to run Shivan Dragon and Utvara Hellkite . C'mon, man.

Awesome!
The best of this deck is that you have many strategies for win. I like the dragon combo but this kind of combos always scares me. Usually the cards needed comes out of time. Does Divination and scry from Magma Jet helps you enough?
Have you thought about using Anger of the Gods ? I think it could be useful in combination with Curse of the Swine . It is a cheap swiper.
What about Purphoros, God of the Forge ? 2 extra damage points for the combo with the dragons. And some damage when Izzet Staticaster appears.
It is a great deck and looks very fun to play.

The Divination + Magma Jet is a bit unstable at the moment sometimes its worthless and some times its all that i could ever whant. Its all i can run at the moment untill i can find more viable card draw.
I'm not rellying completly in the combo as much as before wen i used to run 4Stolen Identity ... right now main win condition is dragon beatdown or AEtherling if i get the combo going, grear, but its not the most important thing to do right now.
I did think about Anger of the Gods and it was almost making it in there, but my deck depends to much on staticaster for constant board control, and exiling the main sorce of removal in the deck sounds verry underwelming. I was planning on using it on a more controll oriented deck running Nivix Cyclops removing the death ping and the dragon combo components, and looking for wins by AEtherling and Niv-Mizzet or burn.
i would love Purphoros, God of the Forge my turn 4 slot is completely empty, and my creatures add a good amount of devotion for him, but i wouldent know what to take out for him...

It's a great deck that really utilizes the "death ping" strategy, Once that combo's out, I don't really see a way to stop it other than (obviously) removal. A creature heavy build doesn't stand a chance though.

If Gorgon's Head is the core of the deck like you say, shouldn't you go up to 4?
