Rationale
6cmc legendary dragon wizard; uncounterable 5/5 flyer. Card-draw engine on every spell cast, damage-outlet on every draw: signature spellslinger payoff and combo linchpin (draws enable Niv triggers, which pressure or burn out opponents). Defines Izzet spellslinger shells and Niv-Mizzet combo strategies in Commander/Brawl. Pip-heavy (3UUU) and removal-magnet due to mana cost and threat level.
