Haha! Trying out new stuff. It's interesting to experiment with new things, you can still be a little kid in a candy shop when you're basically an old man.
Other cards to consider: Jace, Wielder of Mysteries Laboratory Maniac Any permanents that trigger when you cast instants or sorceries or noncreature spells Any permanent that triggers when your opponents cast stuff. You want Jace or Lab Man as insurance in case you deck yourself by burning your opponents.
My take on Niv Mizzen is that he's a control storm. Since Niv is slow and needs protection but still wants to deal a lot of damage, you need to build between the storm and control pieces and then Launch a devastating kill turn when the plan is assembled. Few counter spells, and bounce spells, but mostly burn that draws cards. And few spells that can launch a combo kill.
Niv Mizzet is an epic character and I very much believe he was named by Snoop Dogg. I like a lot of your recommendations as they apply across the board, but I'm not seeing a lot for the Guildpact specifically since he wants two colored permanents. For him especially, I think you need to limit a lot of these recommendations to just a few mono colored and colorless permanents. I would really lean into any two colored permanents that help his game plan. But even the other 5C ones also need limited mono color pieces. The jump start one can use a lot of mono colored permanents and all of its instants and sorceries should be two color. And reborn just wants everything two color, with very few, if any, that don't fit that.
I think we are getting close to being able to do thr most niv Mizzet thing possible. A deck where the only creature cards are niv mizzet. I bet you I bet you could actually make it pretty good deck like that these days
I broke my elbow and it will take 6+months for it to heal... but it will only take about 10mins for this thicc dragon to Niv mizzit his way into my heart hole.
@bettercommander hopefully my friends will take even longer to recover after I destroy them with my new valgavoth deck. In a good way of course. Anyways I'm gonna be fine so no worries. I'll just need to be patient

This vid was top shelf. Loved the lighting crackles at the end.

Yeah I am going unhinged and building this straight draw.
Whoo!

I was thinking that, you could just polymorph into a combo with this guy. Dragon's approach is also nuts
Hell yeah!

Sorry about your suffering.

I’ve been waiting for an Izzet Commander. Lightning Bolt is also Ancestral Recall?! Yeah that’ll do it 😂
Bonkers
Amen, Brother.

Smooches
Is that true about Snoop Dogg
Yeah, I swear. I stared , my niece my witness.
@@bettercommander hell yeah borther
@@bettercommander brother
I want to build visionary but its just too egregious even by my standards.
It's a good budget deck
Could you build it as a secret commander deck maybe? Would be really fun to tooth and nail out your combo and then win.
Isn't Niv Mizzet Visionary banned? Like, not legal in any format? Checked scryfall for it.
No, it just isn't released yet. Not legal in any format until release. It has not been banned.
Meh, this Niv isn’t as good as Parun.
They have different decks imo. I do like how much easier this one is to cast.
Yes he is.
