Spell density still matters in this plan, as young pyromancer can come down as a defensive two drop, controlling the board with tokens that are later converted into pressure.
Bident of thassa works well with the tokens, while red's mini-overuns provide muscle that can be protected by counters. There are token makers in blue and red that can help the deck slow down the game for a more controlling stance, but can also enable a sort of aggressive go wide strategy, reminiscent of the mono-blue decks from theros standard. This is something of a jack-of-all-trades master-of-none list, but it showcases a lot of the different ways the combination can go.ġ.
There is still something of a concern with this, but I think I've largely made the two colors mesh reasonably well together. Of course, the classic problem with a spells matter deck in this combination (as anyone knows who has every ran delver) is that it contains an easy mis-build, by drafting an aggressive variant loaded with the multitude of cheap red aggressive creatures every cube runs, whose density undermines any really spell centric mechanics from blue. In higher power formats mana rocks let them become a wildfire deck or maybe they run the cheap kiki + mite combo, or are just another upheaval deck. It was kind of a pain in the initial foundation laying, and looking at other formats, izzet lists always seem to be kind of good-stuffy decks floated under terms like "counter-burn" and other nomenclature that seems to hide their true reality as vendilion clique + ral zarek decks. The go-to deck for this guild is always "spells matter" but there is a certain level of cognitive dissonance in running a spells-centric deck in formats that focus heavily on midrangy creature or planeswalker pressure. The healthy consequences of enabling this effects the izzet guild, which has always been kind of an odd duck in these formats i.m.o. This, however, gives a core of removal/counter recycling for a long game, as well as the ability to sort of "tank" hits, rather than being forced on a creature-centric offensive. This is just a really strong and efficient package, built around the following core cards:Īnd of course, you can flesh out from there, with powerful high CC spell effects, counters, efficient removal, and reasonable blockers in the 1-3cc slots. This also includes Planechase and Commander format legal cards that are used in their respective format.To finish up the control package, as another incremental lifegain tool.
