THE BEST EDH DECK OF ALL TIME* :D

This is an EDH-style deck with (you guessed it) Captain Sisay as the general. She's the legendary Weatherlight captain who just brings other legends along for the ride. So... why not have a deck chock full of legends and just search your library every single turn? Why not indeed!

There are a huge number of mana producers designed to give you an edge getting to four mana. Once you have four mana (including at least one green and one white, of course), you're about three turns from lockdown, regardless of how many people are trying to kill you. There are so many possible combos in this deck I won't even try to list them all; how you choose to settle things will depend on what your opponents are playing. EDH generally guarantees a lot of randomness, but with Sisay, that just means a lot of options!

Just to name a few defensive possibilities: Mana problems? Eiganjo Castle or Okina, Temple to the Grandfathers. Opponents countering your every spell? Dosan the Falling Leaf. Creatures keep getting killed? Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant with Reya Dawnbringer to bring them back.

And of course there are plenty of offensive ones as well: if you're not in mortal danger when Sisay first gets played, why not pull Reki, the History of Kamigawa - he's cheap, and almost everything you'll be casting will be a legend. That Which Was Taken allows you to recharge both of the Myojins, causing all of the creatures in your hand to be the only creatures on the board. Hokori, Dust Drinker plus Patron of the Orochi means you're the only one with any mana.

In summary: if you play this deck, be prepared for no one to want to play against you for a while.;) And if you build a better one for EDH, post a comment here with a link! I love this format and it'd be great to see some new ones.

*With the possible exception of Arcum Dagsson EDH and another by drewskig with Teysa, Orzhov Scion, both of which were specifically built in response to the ridiculousness of Sisay.
