Seems to be a Draw-Burn deck revolving around Niv-Mizzet, whenever you draw the opponent takes damage. Might want to consider adding some more low cost creatures to defend while you try to get the mana out to bring out Niv-Mizzet. Maybe some counter spells? Mana might be a problem also, consider adding some more land, more or less some dual-element lands. I believe Gush shouldn't be in this deck, the cost is way too high, 4U or return 2 islands. Might want to consider some Ponders or an Ancestral Vision.
Add some land. Get rid of Tomorrow, too. It counter acts Niv-Mizzet's ability to damage your opponents for drawing. I dont know the point behind the Dream Thrush for this deck Some defenders would be useful too. One good one that ive found useful when I went against a Sliver deck was Wall of Stone. A 0/8 defender for 1RR. It helped save my butt when I ran out of shocks and incinerates. And for more instant damage creatures, add Steamcore Weirds. a 1/3 for 3U and when you spend R for it, it deals 2 damage. and Peal from Reality will let you return one of your creatures and one of your opponent's, return Steamcore Weird so you can do that one more time. And, add some counterspells, too. Just so you can get some control over your opponent, too. also, add a couple Gelectrodes so you can just tap and deal damage, then when you whip out an instant or sorcery, untap to deal damage again. Also, add Invoke the Firemind, that way, if you have Niv-Mizzet out, you'll deal damage, whether you draw cards or choose to damage. One last thing, add Isochron Scepter. Imprint Shock or Incinerate or Counterspell to it, and you got infinite instants. Please check out my Izzet Guild and compare and comment on it. Its very similar to this one. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=16279
Strat behind this deck is as bloodcot said Niv+Ophidian Eye, if i get niv out then i know ill alrdy have an Eye. Gushes are strictly there to help the combo if needed. Tomorrow is there to accelerate me getting to the combo more quickly, once i have it pop an unsummon.
