Niv-Mizzet for president! Win the race in 2012!

So. Still no confirmation on Nivzy here being in the Izzet vs Golgari dual deck?
Also, new art. Yes or No? What's your opinion?

Can we make him a Planeswalker? Should be fun ;D

But a reprint or just a new Niv would be Orgasmic.

Oh wait, I get it: 90º means turn the flavor text through 90º to read it! Heh.

One thing I don't think people notice is how cheap this guy is.

Six mana. That's it. Specifically colored, but only with two, and again, SIX. For a walking, talking, brainy-as-hell win condition of a card that brutalizes EVERYTHING.

My favorite card to pair with mirror gallery and any copy spell. Exponential damage!

Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius combos reasonably with his old self, but you do not get a loop!

If you use the {U}{R} ability of Dracogenius to ping a player, you draw a card. Drawing a card makes the Firemind ping again, but it is the Firemind dealing the damage, not Dracogenius, so you do not draw another card. Still, you double the damage dealt.

Guys, the Niv-Mizzet+Curiousity combo will not work in Return to Ravnica because in Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius, his text reads "Whenever Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius deals damage to a player, you may draw a card" and "(U)(R): Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius deals 1 damage to target creature or player". This is a reversal from the original Niv-Mizzet, so the combo won't work. The new Niv-Mizzet is still a great card, but it isn't able to be broken with curiousity anymore.

He even LOOKS half insane with that crazy smile and the way he's flailing his arms. And that makes him awesome.
