niv-mizzet is more of a finisher since the idea of the deck is to trade 1 for 1 a lot (kinda like jund decks) and conpensate with a lot of draw. when niv-mizzet comes in the game is probably gonna end in 1 or 2 turns anyway

thanks to your suggestions i changed the deck a little bit. here are my thoughts on it.i didnt really wanted to play with a lot of cards in hand since i can just discard the cards that aren't that usefull on end step and draw or consult for them later.i feel that unmask is a must since i must always land all necropotence/drain life/corrupt so it's good vs counters. also since i don't have counters of my own i can use it to discard other important cards from other deckshelldozer i don't like either but i am not sure what to have instead :(. will try nantuko shade and see if i can get some damage in with it. i think ideally the best would be a creature with some power and protection from white and blue or something like that.i am also trying out crypt ghast because i might get some really insane drain life with it and can also pump the shade a lot. don't really want to play creatureless because it feels too all-in on necropotence and that can backfire. i can be wrong though.finally i am looking for alternatives for geth's verdict (creature removal) but not sure what :S (go for the throat?)
