Alright folks, I'm gonna need your HALP!

This is an idea I came up with (well, maybe someone did before me) and I need brains to help playtest and improve it.

The way I'm thinking this is supposed to work is:

Dieroll: Let opponent go 1st.

T1: Discard Shadowborn Apostle

T2: Use Surgical Extraction to exile Shadowborn Apostle and all the ones not in our hand, then either play a Shelldock Isle and hope for Koolio (nice odds) Play Watery Grave to cast Extirpate in the same way

T3: If you have Shelldock Isle in play with Emrah and a Watery Grave to put down, well you get the miraculous Emrakul, the Aeons Torn - conveniently with a cast trigger and basically a win after this point.

But there's obviously some trouble here...

Auto-letting my opponent go first comes with a huge mulligan problem, when I bank on discarding T1. Of course I could as a plan B, if I really really really don't like my hand, mulligan into Watery Grave in order to lose an Apostle in combat.

Not sure about the Street Wraith either... I just feel I need the deck thinning, but might be better off with either more Apostles or more land.

What do you think? Please HALP!
