When I first learned magic, Return to Ravnica was the new block set. And that test on the official website said I was Izzet Guild. I bought a prebuilt deck and tried to make it better. It was awful. I've tried several times since then to make a good Izzet with no luck XD Help?
Guttersnipe helps increase the damage of your spells. Get one on board asap. Swiftspear and Blistercoil will ramp with each played spell, and Fog Bank and Frostburn are good walls. Polymorphist jest and electrickery is an instant boardwipe of your opponents critters. The rest of the spells are pretty self explanatory.

Speaking as a level three Izzet engineer and brain boiler, the key into making an Izzet deck versus a U/R deck is simple. Increase the chances for things to go hilariously wrong. Izzet is just as happy when something other than the intended result happens. Need spot removal? Goblin Test pilot or the Statistician. Both are highly localized and one of them just as might go wrong!Big game effects like Stitch in Time have a chance for failure. And all the little filler needs to be super utility, cause Izzet does run all the utilities in Ravnica! Izzet charm is your base line, does it do two or more things? Boom, instant add. But then there are your finishers, the high ranking Chief engineers! All the Izzet legends turn all those happenstance or minor utility cards into real threats. Best of luck!

lol. So you are saying I'm putting too much strategy into it? XD
Yes. Izzet, true ones, never run four ofs if they are 'good'. Must have a chance to misfire to get that spot. They do zany things to mess with tempo, board state, or even the opponent... but not to get a distinct advantage. All the small things here and there to knock the opponent off kilter will allow you to dig yourself up to victory. So I've heard.
Hm. I've never thought of it that way. I might give it a shot lol.
good card to look up is possibility storm/mindmoil. either card is good in an impromptu deck like Izzet.
