If you want tournament quality you need money especially in standard, plain and simple. You can't compete against decks with Lotleth Troll, Bonfire of the Damned, and Snapcaster Mage without high $$$ cards. Regardless, here's my take: Izzet needs more spells and less creatures. If you have a few electromancers and only creatures in your hand it defeats the purpose of having them in the first place. +3 Izzet Charm +4 Snapcaster Mage +4 Dissipate (Dissipate is better than Cancel any day, especially in standard with all the graveyard advantages) +1 Nivmagus, Dracogenius (Need another one just in case as a win condition) +3 or +4 Izzet Charm (Choices gives advantages and this is arguably one of the best charms in standard) +4 Delver of Secrets (simply awesome with Izzet because of all the spells)\ -1 Mountain -1 Island (Izzet doesn't need that many lands. You want to draw more spells than lands because your average cost is 2-3 per card) +4 Sulfur Falls +4 Steam Vents (if you still have money after all this) -4 Cancel -4 Frostburn Wierd (They're just bad. All your mana goes into pumping him up which leaves you with little to no mana for spells.) -2 Izzet Staticasters (3 mana for 1 damage to a single creature, may/may not be reusable if they kill it? No thanks.) -2 Hypersonic Dragon (You have 2 Sorceries. 2x Mizzium Mortar. No point in having a 5 for 4/4 dragon for only that spell) -3 Teleportal (They're just not that good for 2 mana. Keep 1 if you feel like it.)
I woulddrop frostburn and teleportal and sideboard the nivmagus and static caster. 4 goblin electro mancers Delver is good Snap caster if you can afford it. Izzet charm is a better version of negate there should be some in here Flames of the firebrand is a must With all the graveyard recursion, cancel is not as good as dissipate. This deck needs a planeswalker. The blue ones are expensive. I think chandra works in izzet! Hear me out. She adds dmg, and slows down your death because opponents have to attack her because she puts a clock on the game for your opponent.
also think about adding devastation tide
Do not play delver if you plan on having 12 sorcery/instant, the same goes with guttersnipe and nivmagus elemental. And Electromancer. Sadly. Try and take out at least the nivmagus elemental and add spells I suggest taking the land count to 22-23. if you hit 20 spell, that would be decent.
