Here is my deck. It uses Niv-Mizzet and Mindmoil to kill your opponent. It uses counters to keep your oponent off. Im thinking about bounce cards to hit back their lands and creatures I cant counter. Do I need more pacts of negligations? Please help.

// Lands
7 [RAV] Mountain
12 [RAV] Island

// Creatures
3 [TEN] Ornithopter
3 [GP] Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind

// Spells
2 [FUT] Delay
2 [GP] Invoke the Firemind
3 [GP] Stitch in Time
2 [PLC] Piracy Charm
3 [GP] Izzet Signet
4 [RAV] Mindmoil
2 [FUT] Pact of Negation
3 [TEN] Peek
2 [CS] Perilous Research
4 [CS] Rune Snag
4 [RAV] Remand
4 [TSP] Cancel

Note: When I say help, I don't mean say some thing like "This deck is horible." or even, "Best Deck Ever!!!!!111". Those arn't helpful.

Thanks

Another quick suggestion. Adding in ophidian eye allows you to win at instant speed, as long as you have Niv out.

Mindstone?
That is also another auto include. Beats the hell out of a signet for Niv...

This is really helpful. My only dissagreament is about lands. I know 19 seams like globlin agro or somthing, but it works. I have so many cards that let me draw for cheap that I don't need a lot of lands because I draw them with cards like remand. I end up with about 9 to 12 lands in games I win in. Does any one think boomerang would be good in this deck? Im having problems with the deck editing part of mws and have to reinstall it, but when I do ill post a new deck list. I %100 aggree with +1 nivmizit and the -3 titich in time. One game my opponent almost killed all my nivmizits. The pacts are a must because this deck dosn't have use for mana most turns except once nivmizit is out.

Rule Question: Will two mindmoils in play at the same time mean, put cards on bottom, draw, put cards on bottom and draw? Or do you only do it once?

Goodfella, did you read the note in my first post? About the not posting non helpful stuff.
