Izzet Tempo Surge

An aggressive Izzet tempo deck using Bloomburrow and Foundations cards to apply early pressure with prowess creatures and efficient spells, finishing with direct damage.

Slickshot Show-Off grows with each spell and is evasive, while Electrostatic Infantry becomes a huge threat over multiple activations. Thrill of Possibility looting fuels your hand and enables spell chains. Lightning Strike and Shock remove early blockers and trigger prowess. Spell Pierce protects your threats from key removal.

Keep any hand with two lands and a two-drop creature like Slickshot Show-Off or Electrostatic Infantry. Avoid hands with all spells and no early pressure. Mulligan hands with only one land.

Early turns: Play Slickshot Show-Off or Electrostatic Infantry. Use Shock or Lightning Strike to remove early threats. Mid game: Chain spells with Thrill of Possibility and Opt to grow your creatures. Swing with evasive threats. Late game: Finish with a pumped attack or burn spells to the face.

Relies on creatures surviving; instant-speed removal is problematic. Sweepers like Temporary Lockdown reset your board. Lack of counterspells slows you down against control.
