RTR R/B Concept 60 cards, 0 sideboard 9 {Island} 4 {Sulfur Falls} 10 {Mountain} 23 lands 4 {Snapcaster Mage} 4 {Delver of Secrets} 4 {Goblin Electromancer} 12 creatures 3 {Thought Scour} 4 {Pillar of Flame} 2 {Desperate Ravings} 3 {Forbidden Alchemy} 4 {Searing Spear} 2 {Runechanter's Pike} 4 {Mizzium Mortars} 3 {Bonfire of the Damned} 25 other spells Sideboard Notes: Open to critique, thought this might make a fun deck to play

This type of deck could really work, but you need way more flashback cards so that milling yourself is worth it. I'd suggest going 3(maybe 4) colors. White adds some great flashback options, and as is you have no black to pay for Alchemy flashback. If you're set on straight RU, get rid of the self mill cards and just get more removal and Izzet Charms

Very good point, I'll make some changes here and repost in a bit. Thanks man

If I try and just stick with izzet, how much flashback do I want to run so that {runechanter's pike} is still cost effective? Or do I say f*#k it and make that second priority
