Deck Challenge: Young Pyromancer

In a counterpoint to my last challenge, Young Pyromancer is an amazing card with a lot of versatility, and I want to see what cool things people can do with it. The only rules are as follows

* The deck must contain a full playset of Young Pyromancer
* The deck must be Modern legal.

Its a standard deck, but its technically modern legal :p it may be a stretch, but the win cons are dragonshift and burn at the stake. It can usually win around turn 6/7 but it has won as early as turn 4 for me.

Yeah 'Modern Legal' is shorthand for 'Modern, Extended or Standard legal'.

I like it. I especially like the use of Quicken: it synergises beautifully with a lot of cards in the deck. I might question Hands of Binding: I'm not sure if you have enough creatures that can be regular attackers -rather than opportunity attackers- to make it useful. Maybe replace it with some draw? There's not a whole lot for an Izzet deck, and you kind of live-or-die depending on the size of your hand.
