Izzet Wizards

Izzet Wizards epitomizes the spell-slinger archetype, using efficient instants and sorceries alongside powerful creature amplifiers to deal 20 damage as early as turn 3. A-Symmetry Sage and its brethren abuse their wizard type-line to unlock cards like Flame of Anor that would otherwise be too powerful for historic. It focuses on landing an early threat that scales with the spells cast to burn out the opponent in the early game, then falling back to the incredibly strong draw spells once the grind kicks in. A signature to the Historic format, having been a on-and-off top-tier since the initial wave of rebalances that upgraded Symmetry Sage from draft chaff to premier threat, Wizards takes to the skies to conquer Bo1 and Bo3 in a proactive style. -Fanver
