if you want to kill with burn, play char mainboard

and why are you playing epochrasite and venser without blink ?

They are useless that way

-4 Epochrasite
-4 Repeal

+4 Char
+4 Some aggro creature to put the pressure on, like either Giant Solifuge or maybe Greater Gargadon.

This may help the deck with the win condition (seems like you're going for aggro/controlish Izzet).

EDIT:

Why aren't you playing 4 incinerates and electrolizes? If you removed the snags and bolstered those two, maybe adding in either a demonfire or invoke the firemind the deck would be more solid.

I've been playing a deck similar to this one with Bogardan Hellkite, Teferi, and Mystical Teachings, adding a hint of black for teachings flashback. Here's my list:

1 Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir
3 Bogardan Hellkite
1 Venser, Shaper Savant

4 Rune Snag
4 Remand
4 Cancel
4 Incinerate
4 Izzet Signet
4 Electrolyze
1 Molten Disaster
3 Careful Consideration
2 Mystical Teachings
1 Pact of Negation
1 Beacon of Destruction

4 Shivan Reef
4 Steam Vents
1 Urza's Factory
1 Faerie Conclave
2 Dimir Aqueduct
6 Island
2 Mountain
2 Dreadship Reef
1 Izzet Boilerworks

Sideboard

2 Molten Disaster
3 Take Possession
4 Spell Snare
1 Draining Whelk
1 Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir
4 Cryoclasm

It's definitely not aggro as has been suggested, just think of it as UB teachings with spot removal rather than mass removal, and Bogardan Hellkite as the best teachings target in the format (in my humble opinion Wink

)
