Izzet spellslinger that grows experience counters until instants and sorceries cost almost nothing, then storms off or controls the table.

Mizzix gives you an experience counter whenever you cast an instant or sorcery with mana value greater than your current experience count. Each counter makes your instants and sorceries cost {1} less. Experience stays even if Mizzix dies, so the discount survives removal. Climbing the curve one step at a time is the plan: a two-drop gets the first counter, a three-drop the second, and soon big draw spells, rituals and wheels cost almost nothing.
In the recorded games, Mizzix ranged from slow control to fast storm. Mystic Remora, Bonus Round and Mana Geyser fueled big turns, and Underworld Breach or Reiterate lines finished the game. Steady Progress used proliferate to add counters quickly. Pyromancer's Goggles and Thing in the Ice showed up in spell-copy builds, while Cyclonic Rift, Mystic Confluence and Fact or Fiction carried the control games. When opponents left Mizzix alone, the discount snowballed into a win. Early removal, like a Pongify on Mizzix, slowed it a lot, and wide creature boards that rebuilt after bounce eventually overran its control plan.
