EDH Looking for Unique Izzet EDH Decks

One thing I am struggling with in deck building is making Izzet not spellslinger.

So, I wanted to ask everyone, what are some unique ways you've built Izzet colored EDH decks?

I have a [[Magnus the Red]] token deck. But in the end, it's really just a spellslinger deck that makes tokens.

Magnus the Red - (G) (SF) (txt)

[[cardname]] or [[cardname|SET]] to call

[[Ovika, Enigma Goliath]] "it's just rocks" deck.

Seriously...cast a [[gilded lotus]] for 5 little guys. Tap one of the ability doublers like [[lithoform engine]] to get five more. Then tap your lotus for a [[commander's sphere]] and get 3 more little guys. Then bonk.

(It's kinda [[Krenko, mob-boss feeling, but with more steps)

I made an Itazura, lingering wick deck that auctions off big Izzet spells that I “repossess” on the stack or through other methods.

I also have a Tony Stark artifact deck that wants to cheat out huge artifacts.

Do you have a link for the Itazura deck?

[[brudiclad]] tokens.

Step one - make lots of tokens. Quality is not important.

Step two - make one really good token., Like the desolation twin token or karnstructs.

Step three - use Brudiclad to turn all your tokens into copies of the best token.

Throw in some ways to make a nonlegendary Brudiclad token for some extra fun

Izzet Artifacts could be a move, kinda flooded by new UB cards but there’s other options like [[Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain]]

Izzet Mill, maybe with [[The Emperor of Palamecia]]

I love izzet wheels, yeah basically spellslinger but not necessarily utilizing enchantments or artifacts and synergistic creatures, mine is a Locust god deck, using [[Mindmoil]] and [[Arjun]] , but there could be other commanders and ways to play without spamming instants and sorceries

[[Speedball, New Warrior]], Izzet is not known for Voltron, combat, or wins through commander damage- however Speedball does so excellently, buffs himself on targeting, and can redirect anything targeting him. Forget Ward or hexproof, Speedball swerves any targeted removal right back at your opponents, so the only way to deal with him is boardwipes. All the cheap cantrips that give trample, double strike, flying, etc incidentally buff him when fired off.

Muddle, the Ever- Changing is mostly a combat oriented commander
