Look on my Izzet deck >> Burn it Down, mine one is going for the pretty much same idea as yours.

Should check out Negate as a cheap counter. Additional counters to consider are Dissipate and Counterflux . These I would probably place above Essence Backlash as they are cheaper and you're not always going to need to counter a "big" creature.

If you want to increase your casting speed I would take out Hypersonic Dragon and Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius or at least side board them. I would then replace those with Think Twice to allow you more drawing (card advantage)/damage output with Guttersnipe .

I haven't been able to update my deck till now. Before i even saw your comment i was able to get two COUNTERFUX cards. I still need to get some Negate . I haven't thought about Dissipate . I have been on the fence about taking out my dragons for awhile but i really like having dragons in my deck. I would take your suggest in to account. I'm still doing some tinkering to Izzet or Isn't. Thanks for the input psychoza!

No problem man. Nice deck and I hope it keeps doing well for you.

may I suggest Sulfur Falls instead of Izzet Guildgate muuuuch more handy

HarbingerJK i would love to get those cards but really don't want to spend the money on them. thanks for the input.

I would remove both of your 6 drops, and add in more lands.

I would also move Blasphemous Act and 4x Skullcrack s to your sb, remove Cancel then add 1x Mizzium Mortars , 2x Think Twice and 4 Dissipate (its strictly better then cancel). It depends on your meta, but Izzet Charm seems like it could be better then Negate (negates very narrow)

theonyc thanks for all the input. I have Cancel in because i have not been able to get my hands on some Dissipate . i don't like Izzet Charm because they have the option to pay 2 to cancel it, so Negate just works better for me . Skullcrack has worked really well for me and i have the Blasphemous Act for a board wipe. But i will keep in mind all the advice thank you so much for the feed back.

theonyc my 6 drops come in clutch if the game lasts long. that is why i only have one of each.

You should definitely add more lands. Probably 3x Sulfur Falls and maybe 1 more mountain. Goblin Electromancer is pretty awesome for instant and sorcery decks too. And I'd get rid of that Blasphemous Act if I were you...how often are you really going to play that?

With all these instants you could replace your 6 drops (especially melek) with Nivix Cyclops . Also ditch the guild gates. Their speed will cripple you in constructed. You may want to check out my deck : Absolute Insanity (Turn 4 Win). Not going for the same angle, but i think you can take some ideas here.

Im sorry but you cant play 6 drops with only 20 lands. I would remove 4 skull crack and your 6 drops.

Btw Idc if you ignore every other part of my comment, but I mean it when i say ditch the guild gates. Your 4x Steam Vents is enough and the 1x Sulfur Falls is a bonus. 5/20 lands being dual should do you fine when you're only in two colors and most of your cards are light on color cost.

Grimgrinner i do agree about the guild gates and i took them out. Ok and my 6 drops are coming out but i think im going to put 2 Pyromancer's Gauntlet in their place.
