This was a silly idea that is performing great. Im looking for thoughts on what I need to sideboard against, what would be an unfavorable match-up.

I would replace {Lobber crew} with {Pillar of flame}

This would make this deck not work at all. The lobber is half the stratagy. If you dont see it, put draw card effects on direct damage dudes and draw into cheap control elements. I ran pillar in place of spears, but the sorcery speed kills the deal. Ill definately put them sideboard though.

Uhhhh, the only multicolored spell you are running is {Izzet Charm}.

He can use his tap ability with or without multi-colored spells. He can also use his 0/4 bulk to block (which is something this deck usually cant do effectively). The multi-color clause is a nice perk, not something to restructure an entire deck around. That being said, 4 {izzet charm} is more than enough when i have the {snapcaster mage} as well. Staying dual color there is not another multi-color spell worth running main board, they are either too expensive or have less than relevant effects.

It's no {heartless summoning} deck, but it has it's perks. Full hand almost always, unstoppable damage, and winning with cards like {unsummon}. It is a blast.

It reminds me of {wall of omens} in this deck. 0/4 is nothing to scoff at, and add an ability it can use after blocking, sometimes more than once a turn!? Such a good card and {rakdos, lord of riots} absolutley loves {lobber crew}.

It doesn't have much burn I would put in a couple more burn spells like piller of flames

The burn is handled pretty well by {lovber crew} and especially {guttersnipe}. I will for sure side more burn like {mizzium mortars} and {bonfire of the damned} to handle hordes
