Deck overview

This competitive Izzet storm deck is helmed by Vivi Ornitier, a commander that acts simultaneously as an explosive mana engine and a table-wide burn win condition. The primary plan accelerates Vivi onto the battlefield on Turn 2 using format-staple fast mana such as Chrome Mox, Mana Vault, and Lotus Petal. On Turn 3, enchanting Vivi with Curiosity or Ophidian Eye turns every noncreature spell into a massive draw engine, drawing three cards per cast as Vivi deals 1 damage to each opponent. This continuous influx of cards quickly finds rituals, 0-cost artifacts, and Underworld Breach or Brain Freeze, allowing the pilot to cast dozens of spells and eliminate the entire table in a single turn. The deck is heavily fortified with free interaction like Fierce Guardianship and Deflecting Swat, along with split-second and uncounterable enablers like Samut, Tyrant of Naktamun and Hexing Squelcher.
