Welcome back everyone! Today we explore Izzet Prowess, I used this deck to hit Mythic this month! It was very smooth sailing and I only lost two matches along the way. The deck is very good at playing the short, mid, and even late game. Expressive Iteration is one heck of a Magic card!

Let us go ahead and look at the decklist!

The deck can have very explosive starts with Symmetry Sage or Soul-Scar Mage. Dreadhorde Arcanist is excellent with Symmetry Sage to set its power to three allowing you to cast everything in the deck. Arcanist can also just help you grind out the game and so can Sea Gate Stormcaller! Just keep in mind the Stormcaller will not copy Wizard's Lightning, even if Lightning costs 1 mana since the original mana value is three.

The deck is very fun and you can play it as a control deck, a tempo deck, or aggro deck. You'll need to adapt to what you are playing against. Have fun!

That's it for today, thanks for reading/watching!
