If you're looking to go straight combo storm then replacing the thought erasure (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Thought+Erasure) and the discovery // dispersal (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Discovery+%2F%2F+Dispersal) for radical idea (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Radical+Idea), you could also put in a few creatures then to speed the deck up or allow for a long game. Goblin electromancer (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Goblin+Electromancer) and crackling drake (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Crackling+Drake) are good choices. The nice thing about doing this would be that you turn it into a 2 color deck rather than 3, allowing for more consistency. Sulfur falls (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Sulfur+Falls) is not incredibly expensive and you could go 4 of them and 4 vents (yes I know that is a $20 investment).
Other than that it seems like a very solid deck and I really like the idea.

Thank you for your suggestions. I initially tried a straight combo route with the Goblin Electromancer (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Goblin+Electromancer) in Izzet colours, and while it's certainly potentially more explosive, found the deck I tried lacked sufficient early game interaction, especially against things that Lightning Strike (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Lightning+Strike) or even Beacon Bolt (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Beacon+Bolt) couldn't touch. That said, that may well be a factor of the decklist I was trying and the meta of my playgroup. Sadly I'm not in a position to get any Sulphur falls.or more Steam Vents (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Steam+Vents) at the moment, but you're certainly right that such a mana base would be more consistent.
I don't have any Crackling Drake (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Crackling+Drake) yet, but it's on my list of things to get (and try out). I hadn't really considered Radical Idea (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Radical+Idea) though (I used Anticipate (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Anticipate) instead). I guess I didn't think much of it at first impression, and so may have misjudged it.
