I'm speaking of the splice combo, specifically. Izzet Guildmage  used to copy a lava spike  , which has had a Desperate Ritual  onto it. I've been running a casual deck using it now, but my current build folds to any really aggressive deck. 2 x Stuffy Doll  10 x Island  1 x The Unspeakable  1 x Preordain  4 x Desperate Ritual 1 x Foresee  1 x Call to Mind  6 x Mountain  4 x Izzet Guildmage 2 x Unsummon  1 x Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind  2 x Sift Through Sands  4 x Lava Spike  3 x Glacial Ray  4 x Izzet Boilerworks  2 x Eerie Procession  1 x Sleep  4 x Reach Through Mists  1 x Wall of Frost  2 x Steam Vents  2 x Shivan Reef  2 x Peer Through Depths  A lot of that would have to change, I'm thinking most of the other Arcane cards, maybe adding in Eye of Nowhere  instead as a secondary combo to help reset the board. The bigger creatured would be out, either for more cheap removal or more early defenders to help survive to the point where I have 7 mana and the 3 pieces of the deck. Any thoughts as to whether the Combo itself is viable? The decklist above is not tourny quality, but is an example of a consistent casual deck I'd probably use as my baseline

Seems real janky, but i like it. Snapcaster needs to be in here right? maybe pyros ascention with faithless looting.
cards i would initially take out:
the unspeakable
preordain (banned now in modern)
foresee
call to mind
unsummon
niv-mizzet, the firemind
sift through sands (no longer need)
eerie procession
sleep
yea i dunno, take these out, add some just better quality cantrip, burn and arcane cards. mix up a new list , i'd like to see what you come up with.
