Well,check out {Nivix Cyclops} ad the guild leader of the Izzet League.

No. Cyclops requires building an entirely different deck. And most of the guild leaders aren't that great, especially in standard.

I suggest moving two of your Magma Jets to the sideboard and including some number of {Mizzium Mortars} (2-3) and {Cyclonic Rifts} (Same as Mortars). {Turn // Burn} also helps you deal with all those problem creatures out of burn range (*/5's).

Made a few changes...really think {hammer of purphoros} would be good here but don't know what I could cut

Ordeal of Thassa should go. It has no place in the deck, really.

When I ran my Izzet last night, I had a huge problem with Planeswalkers. The only way I could deal with them was through counters, because even Cyclonic Rift allows them to trigger (JERKS). So things like {Lightning Strike} and spells that allow you to his a creature and/or a player are really nice.

The reason I have ordeal in is to give my chimaera a fatter ass (and the card draw is nice as well)

Guessing you're suggesting to bring my magma jets back from sideboard? If so what would you cut/put in sideboard?

I'd replace {Opportunity} with {Thoughtflare} (it's one less cost and involves a blue & a red instead of two blue), I would definitely take out the one Molten Birth (just because it's a 1-of) and maybe one Guttersnipe for the Magma Jets.

The odds of you having both of those cards in your hand when you need them are very slim. You're kinda going for Magic Christmas Land there. =P

Couldn't see losing a guttersnipe but agreed with everything else...lost a land instead...bad move?

I may not always have ordeal when I have a chimaera but chances are high that I'll have a chimaera when I have ordeal so I think it's worth it...besides...who doesn't love magic Christmas land?

I run with 23 and I'm always fine; just test it and see how it goes love! Play testing is always the tedious part.
