Guildgates really throw off the mana curve if you're relying on Goblin Electromancer. You want to turn 1 Faithless Looting, then have nothing to do turn 2 so you can place the guildgate.
Mistveil Plains couples well with Squadron Hawk. Emeria, the Sky Ruin, is also good in mono-white land when you want those Serra Ascendants again.
Blistercoil doesn't boost enough to become lethal; you have to cast nine instants or sorceries to get him to that 10/10 double strike Memnite's looking for.
10/8 flying, trample, double-strike . . . yep, that'll do it. Unless the opponent has 1 flying creature . . .
Seems suspiciously like mine . . . Anyway, since this is a combo play, you should want to run four more spells that give double strike (Double Cleave or Armed // Dangerous) and four more spells that make the creature unblockable (Distortion Strike). Put in two more Mizzium Skin for Visions of the Beyond (useless except in mill), and you'll need far more land to make sure you have three of them by turn three.

Here's the big thing: SnarlingToes was an outright jerk about posting his deck. He posted the same deck every time a new deck made the Active list. If you have a related deck, or this deck gave you an idea, or maybe you're friends with the deck maker outside the vault ~~ but if you want to get recognized, don't piggy-back on everybody else's deck. It's not a crime when you promote your own deck once or twice, especially when the deck is related in some way. But don't go overboard.
SnarlingToes was a user a month back who posted some lame deck everywhere with no context.
Well said, if not blunt.
Who do you think you are, SnarlingToes?
I posted a similar Modern Deck two months ago that just takes all the cards from your combo and gives them Modern duplicates so you consistently win by turn 5 and before. It has won me tournaments. I just use 4 Kiln Fiend, 4 Nivix Cycolps, 4 Artful Dodge, 4 Distortion Strike, 4 Armed, and 4 Assault Strobe. I eventually just took the deck down because nobody actually liked it. I'm not saying your a poser, it's simply regrettable that someone else had the same idea as I did and got 90 more likes than mine. http://www.mtgvault.com/vintageftw/decks/izzet-3turn-win/
Also could use Elvish Archdruid, Elvish Mystic, and Arbor Elf for ramp.
Oh, yeah, it's still a great deck. Just a bummer about the whole "copy instants and sorceries" and multiple casts.
Copying does not mean you cast them again. I tried doing this ridiculously powered Sphinx-Bone Wand with Pyromatics, but the ruling is that you copy as you cast them, and as the spell resolves, it is copied. Even if you copy Izzet Charm twice with Echo Mage and once with Dual Casting, you still only do two damage with Guttersnipe, get one token with Talrand, and one Elemental with the Pyromancer.
Why not Roaring Primadox or Species Gorger to reuse your cheap enter-the-battlefield creatures, like Bond Beetle and Coiling Oracle?
Holy crap, where did you find those???You can play two or three Vraskas, no need to play four. Army of the Damned is not that great for this deck, though.
I'm not following you. You're going to Clone your Healer, and then you play the Angel to flicker . . . Clone? You gain two life, and Clone enters as a copy of . . . Restoration Angel? and then you flicker . . . I have no idea. You can't flicker Restoration Angel, it says right on it "non-Angel creature".
Uh, yeah, it does.
