I don't think it would really need the Puzzle Box considering it already has plenty of ways to have both players draw cards, and the Puzzle Box really doesn't generate more cards in hand, but thanks for the suggestion, it sure works well with Niv-mizzet.

Well, that was just a suggestion... And since you will be making sure your opponent's hand size stays large, he gets to recycle more cards with the Box, giving more damage from Niv-Mizzet...

I've been testing this deck a lot today after I stumbled upon it, and I really think that Pyroclasm belongs in the main. Too many decks run either acceleration (birds/elves) or early threats. You need to get rid of them quick, fast, and in a hurry. Acceleration just means that they drop thier hands really quickly, and the early threats put you on a clock. Evacuation isn't good enough when your opponent has already dropped 3 threats. Just get them off the table, and do it early.
You might want to disreguard the sideboard. I've never really been good with them.
From my testing so far, this deck beats the crap out of Eminant Domain, Heartbeat, Gifts Ungiven, and Ideal. I haven't seen much other stuff that I can make solid claims about, but it can beat aggro even without the Pyroclasms in the main. Pyroclasm just puts this deck over the top.
Another thing I noticed that's different from your presented deck is the difference in the mana curves. Mine pretty much sits at 2 unless I need to go for the kill, in turn, I'm able to run less lands and more business. Something you may want to consider.
I really don't like Adamaro. It makes sense, but the deck is creature light as it is. Kami isn't even meant to be a threat. Your opponent will always have something to deal with 4 random creatures in some way shape or form. Just take them out.
@ SPP:Adamaro is often killed, but he can be lethal when you float mana, play a Thoughts of Ruin, and he comes into play with little or none resistance, not to mention he has Remands and SB Hinders to back him up. I was playing Hearbeat against him, and that little thing absolutly crushed me, especially when I had no lands. And I also agree with you that Pyroclasm needs to be main deck, so I'm going to replace Evacuation with it. Thanks for the comments though.
@ DarkByDesign: Gaze of Adamaro is not needed, as Sudden Impact is in T2, which I am currently adding to the SB.
Thanks for the comments, people, I've updated the list.

that muddle with mixture can really work wonders in this deck
