If you read the hubs, you are probably wondering why I put this deck under U/R (Izzet) and R (Mono-Red). I will explain it later, I promise I am not crazy. First, let's see how this deck works.
You might know about
Polymorph
's ability to summon
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
very early in the game. Thanks to
Indomitable Creativity
we now have 8 ways to get Emrakul, and thanks to
Desperate Ritual
and
Infernal Plunge
we can get her faster than ever before. This is how to get
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
by turn 3:
Turn 1:
Mountain
Turn 2:
Mountain
->
Dragon Fodder
or
Krenko's Command
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Desperate Ritual
or
Infernal Plunge
->
Indomitable Creativity
Alternatively:
Turn 1:
Island
Turn 2:
Mountain
->
Dragon Fodder
or
Krenko's Command
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Desperate Ritual
or
Infernal Plunge
->
Polymorph
Congratulations, you just won the game!
Going into game 2 (suggesting they don't rage quit) you will want to sideboard out some cards. You can put in
Platinum Angel
or
Iona, Shield of Emeria
depending on what your opponent is running. Then, you will replace
Polymorph
,
See Beyond
, and
Peer Through Depths
with
Cathartic Reunion
,
Tormenting Voice
, and
Glorious End
. Then, switch the 2
Island
for
Mountain
and you have yourself a mono-red turn 3
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
and/or [
Platinum Angel
/
Iona, Shield of Emeria
] deck. This should catch your opponent off guard, considering you just completely changed the deck. Now, you can produce both
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
and either
Platinum Angel
or
Iona, Shield of Emeria
by turn 3. Here's how:
Turn 1:
Mountain
Turn 2:
Mountain
->
Dragon Fodder
or
Krenko's Command
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Desperate Ritual
, splice a second
Desperate Ritual
->
Indomitable Creativity
for 5 mana, searching for both
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
and your side boarded card (
Platinum Angel
against aggro/combo or
Iona, Shield of Emeria
against mono-colored decks)
Alternatively:
Turn 1:
Mountain
Turn 2:
Mountain
->
Desperate Ritual
->
Hordeling Outburst
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Infernal Plunge
->
Indomitable Creativity
, same thing
Congratulations, you just won the match!
For a cheaper version of this deck, simply replace the
Shivan Reef
with
Mountain
and
Island
and take out the
Desperate Ritual
,
Platinum Angel
, and
Iona, Shield of Emeria
for a $60 turn 3
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
deck. Feedback and Suggestions are appreciated!
