Turn 3: 11/11 Indestructible Trample Infect Haste

Modern

Deathlullaby


Sideboard


Maybeboard


Play mana ramp elves till you can bring out Elvish Piper . If you have not drawn one play Elvish Harbinger to get one. Use Elvish Piper to play Blightsteel Colossus on turn 4 or 5. If you have not drawn one you can use Fauna Shaman to get one. Use Rogue's Passage to make Blightsteel Colossus unblockable and swing for fatal infect damage.

During play testing I am swinging for lethal on turn 5 about 80% of the time with a possible turn 3 lethal infect as follows:

Turn 1: Play land and Elvish Mystic or Llanowar Elves

Turn 2: Play land , Lightning Greaves and 3x Elvish Mystic and/or Llanowar Elves (put greaves on first one, tap for mana to cast second one, move greaves and tap to play third)

Turn 3: Play land and Elvish Piper move greaves to piper and bring out Blightsteel Colossus move greaves to colossus and swing for win.

I finally have time to get caught up on all the comments so here we go.

@user:shedidthistome I completely agree with the full play set of shaman and will update today. As for the splash of black, I will definitely add to side board. I checked you deck out and like it but The goal here is to smack my opponent down before the have any idea what is happening. I would go with my deck the first round. After that, they would know what to look for so I would throw in the black from side board as you suggested. I hope to get to try it out live in a couple weeks. I like the unblockable of the Whispersilk Cloak but ultimately I would chose haste over unblockable for this set up. The only option I see would be to replace the prominades for the cloaks.

@Taxihappy and user:shedidthistome Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and other Eldrazi silver bullets are supper sexy cards and are great for my commander version of this deck but ultimately it is my opinion that Blightsteel Colossus is the best choice here for a few reason reasons. First, one unblocked hit from colossus is a fatal blow due to the infect damage no matter how much life gain they might have where as all the other silver bullets take at least 2 hits. Next Colossus is indestructible so you don't have to worry about him getting blocked to death or destroy permanent cards. Finally he has trample so they can't just chump block and hope to survive till they pull an answer card. Again just my opinion and others might see it differently. And now I think we have beat this horse well past death on this post string :)

@APPLE01DOJ I like your hall of the bandit lord idea I will have to do some play testing to see how I can fit it in without lowering my chances and drawing a couple forests for turns 1 and 2. If I can make it work I could then throw in the whispersilk cloaks for some extra chances at unblockable.

@z2ontzv All my elves have a purpose. Elvish prominade might be the only dead card but I will explain each cards use.

Elvish Mystic early mana excellerant Llanowar Elves early mana excellerant Elvish Archdruid mid highend mana excellerant with a bonus of slight boost to elves Elvish Harbinger elf tutor for elvish piper if you have already drawn a colossus or for fauna shaman if you have not Fauna Shaman tutor for either elvish piper are blightsteel colossus as Prima pointed out, Immaculate Magistrate and Joraga Warcaller are your back up win con if you get a shitty draw or your opponent manages to prevent you from bringing out colossus. Play magistrate then play joraga for as many times as you can kick him( if I can bring out 2 magistrates I wont even kick joraga) then attach boots to magistrate and tap to add more counters to joraga. Your looking at T4 most likely so I am guessing Joraga was kicked 3 times ( im figureing for 4 lands, 2 Elvish Mystics or Llanowar Elves 1 Elvish Archdruid at the beginning or turn 4) when you tap the magistrate that should put another 5 counters on Joraga. Now all your elves are getting +9/+9 ( 8 from joraga and 1 for arch druid) turn 5 starts by playing as many elves as you can and save enough for your elvish prominade. Play prominade adding a minimum of 5 elves. Tap magistrate to add 10 counters to joraga. Now swing with 5 elves all getting +19/+19. If you manage to get out 2 Joraga make sure you spread you counters as best you can so if they take out one joraga you still have counters on your other one.

@Archetype_Of_Awesomeness I really like the way you think. However, Black Lotus isn't legal modern or even in legacy and is restricted to a single copy in vintage. I will play around with it though and see if I can make a solid reliable turn 2 win legacy deck. If I can I will toss you some cred in the description.

I am still looking for ways to improve so if you see a better way to fill those 7 to 10 card slots I'm all ears.

Also, don't forget those +1 upvotes :) and thanks for all the kind comments.
