Izzet Prowess chains cantrips to pump creatures for burst kills. Tishana's Tidebinder shuts down their triggers, and Seam Rip handles their enchantment-based setup. Remove their threats before they chain spells.
Mono-Green Landfall builds wide boards with landfall triggers. Avatar's Wrath sweeps their board, and Glen Elendra Guardian provides recurring disruption. Keep their engine pieces off the battlefield.
Izzet Lessons grinds with Monument to Endurance, Gran-Gran, and lesson chains while their Torpor Orb out of the board shuts down your creature-based engine. Rest in Peace is essential to neutralize Monument to Endurance's graveyard recursion. Disdainful Stroke counters their expensive payoffs. Tishana's Tidebinder counters Monument's triggered abilities or other key triggers. Avatar's Wrath and Clarion Conqueror have little impact against a spell-heavy deck, and Requisition Raid doesn't generate enough tempo.
