Izzet Polymorph 

The least efficient and most fun way of cheating big creatures into play

Decklist

One of my more recent decks as of this December 2025 writeup. Izzet Polymorph is one of the most original and quickly iterated decklists I've made. It actually started out as a Arjun, the Shifting Flame deck, but after two test games, I realized that while a threat and a consistent wheel to find the effects I wanted is great, the core concept of the deck isn't consistent enough to not have a distinct enabler in the command zone. That lead to me looking on EDHREC for any Izzet commanders that would directly support the deck's goals.Ovika, Enigma Goliath and The Locust God were both considered for their ability to make tokens, but ultimately they cost too much mana and need further enabled to be viable. I settled on Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh and Malcolm, Keen Eyed Navigator as they provide both a free target for Polymorph effects and consistent ramp.

Izzet Polymorph excels in achieving fun variance. It can present single player-killing threats as soon as turn 3, typically turn 5. It does not do well against boardwipes (a theme in my decks - I love my permanents), as the setup is both card and mana-intensive.
