An arcane deck built around The Unspeakable. The idea is to delve as deeply into the deck as you can early to get that big boy out around turn 4/5 using Sift Through Sands. Fend off your opponent with Kaijin of the Vanishing Touch and Steel Wall. The overall strategy of this deck is to deal fatal damage with The Unspeakable alone, while holding your opponent down with spells it retrieves augmented by Splice onto Arcane.

To make this deck better, it will have to get faster and more reliably summon The Unspeakable on T4/T5. This deck also needs a smooth mana curve and more answers to bad situations. Spells like Devastation Tide or Cyclonic Rift will probably find their way in.
