Deck overview

This is an Izzet spellslinger/storm-burn deck built around Vivi Ornitier, who turns every noncreature spell into a +1/+1 counter and a 1-damage ping to each opponent, while his free activation converts his power into red or blue mana once per turn. The 99 is a tight engine of rituals (Rite of Flame, Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, Jeska's Will), cantrips, and draw spells (Ponder, Brainstorm, Frantic Search, Rhystic Study, Mystic Remora) that chain into a game-ending storm turn. Trigger doublers (Harmonic Prodigy, Veyran, Voice of Duality, Wizard's Staff) multiply Vivi's growth, while damage-multiplier permanents (Solphim, Mayhem Dominus, Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might, Torbran, Thane of Red Fell, Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph) make the pings lethal. Finishers are Grapeshot/Brain Freeze storms, Epic Experiment chains, and X-burn like Crackle with Power and Chandra's Ignition, with Underworld Breach providing the recursion loop that makes the numbers add up.
