Wins in the 2nd turn, max 4th.

Optimal starting hand: Forbidden Orchard, Karplusan Forest , Lotus Petal, Reckless Charge or Hammerhand , Oath of Druids, Sterling Grove and any other card (not important)

1st turn: Draw a card (not important which card it is)

Play Forbidden Orchard - opponent puts a creature card on the battlefield so he/she controls one or more creature than you + Lotus Petal - which adds one more mana to your mana pool

Play Oath of Druids.

2nd turn: Reveal cards from your library until you reveal a creature card.

1) If the card is Blightsteel Colossus put into play and play Reckless Charge or Hammerhand to give haste. Attack with Colossus and use the trample, infect abilities to deal at least 12-14 damage and 12-14 poison counters to an opponent .If your opponent has no untapped creatures during your turn or just the 1/1 creature he got when you tapped Forbidden Orchard or just a creature with toughness 4 or less, then he loses the game..

2) If the card is Emrakul, the Aeons Torn it has protection from colored spells so it's kind of difficult for an opponent to destroy it, exile it or enchant it (exception: Oblivion Ring . Also it has annihilator 6 so whenever this creature attacks, defending player sacrifices six permanents and practically becomes defenseless and he probably loses the game in the next turn

Oath of Druids is the main winning card in this deck

If you have no Oath of Druids in your opening hand there are 4 ways and 15 cards to help you find it.1) Demonic Tutor, 2) Enlightened Tutor , 3) Sterling Grove using the sacrifice ability. 4) Idyllic Tutor

Moreover, Sterling Grove can be played to give your Oath of Druids shroud.

Slayers' Stronghold also gives you haste ability and a +2 bonus at the attack especially valuable if it is used on Blightsteel Colossus to deal 13 infect damage (defending creature must have a toughness of at least 4 for your opponent to avoid defeat.)

Funeral Pyre in your side deck will be used whenever an opponent plays with a deck with no creatures or very few ones
