Yeah that's it! Though I'd run Soul-Scar over Delver if you have the wildcards because of how common Bowmasters is. The nice thing about Wizards is that none of them die to a single Bowmasters even if they do flash it in response to a cantrip.
Just wanted to circle back to say thanks for the tip, I did craft Izzet Wizards and only dropped one game (to a mill deck that had 3 [[Ruin Crab]]s by turn 2) on my way to getting the five wins. I made do with the lands I had but crafted the Soul-Scar Mages. Partway through I remembered that some of this weekend's Arena Championship competitors were playing the same deck, and made some tweaks to get closer to their lists. Don't know whether the decks I faced were supposed to be competitive, but I saw zero Bowmasters or One Rings so probably not.
Nice! Wizards is a very efficient deck for how cheap it is and the rares transfer over to other decks very well so it's always what I recommend. But I'm also biased since I love blitz style decks so I'm glad it worked out for you too!
