Breaking Point is not very effective in EDH as 6 life is not a big deal when you have 40 so 9 times out 10 someone is going to pay for it. Thanks for the suggestion anyway :3

Now this is an interesting take on an Izzet EDH deck. Enchantment heavy is rarely seen in this type of guild. I like it. If you wanted some chaos for yourself, maybe Mindmoil ? +1 for the "out of the norm" deck idea for R/U.

UpperDeckerTaco If Mindmoil affected everyone I would have taken it but sadly it does not but thanks for the positive comment! :3

Chargingbadgerrrrrrrr Nope Heartless Hidetsugu is not banned in EDH according to gatherer. :3

Jhoira's Timebug is a must have to me. It will give you a little more control over when your spells actually get cast. Rift Elemental also has the same effect. I understand randomness and chaos is your thing, so if that extra bit of control doesn't fit the theme for you, then nevermind :P

Newgeneric I do like the control element of it I just may have to consider it so I will put it as a maybe for now. :3

Have you thought about Custody Battle , Illicit Auction or Goblin Game . I run a pretty similar Zedruu EDH deck and those are some of my favorite cards to play.

msterling15 I used to have all of them in this deck but I took them out for one reason or another.

Custody Battle Was not very chaotic card so I cut it.

Illicit Auction This card was fun but it didn't do much either.

Goblin Game Fun but for seven mana even with my commander I rather play something more crazy like Thieves' Auction .

you should run Obliterate , Decree of Annihilation , and Jokulhaups to clear the board while suspending spells like Omniscience and Decree of Silence to lockdown after board wipe, Greater Gargadon would be a nice fatty to sac ur perms when u board wipe

Paradox Haze would be a good spell to speed up ur game, also using something like Reality Strobe would get annoying to deal with, Copy Enchantment would have lots of utility also. especially with the paradox haze

Blizzicane says... #12

aznb01777 Obliterate is in the maybe right now as I debating whether or not I want it as I would prefer if it would not hurt my artifacts it would be nice if I could find one that got rid of only creatures and land so. Omniscience was a neat idea but since I am aiming for chaos I want it to affect every one and not just one person. Greater Gargadon is not very chaotic and Paradox Haze could be useful but only some of my cards use the upkeep. Reality Strobe seems a bit too slow to cause any real damage. Copy Enchantment is nice but a lot of my enchantments don't do anything extra when they are copied ex: a second Blood Moon won't do me much good.

But regardless thank you for the suggestions. :3

I didnt suggest blood moon, lol. Paradox Haze speeds up suspend, u dont suspend much in ur deck? Reality Strobe can trigger every other turn with paradox Haze, with an additional copy enchantment thats a free a free perm bounce every turn. Greater gargadon lets u sac ur perm since u wiped the board and bring him out earlier, if u have omniscience u dont need mana rocks.

August 8, 2014 8:29 a.m.

aznb01777 says... #14

Btw u could copy other planyers enchantments, and other than paradox Haze a 2nd mana breach would b verymean

August 8, 2014 8:33 a.m.

Blizzicane says... #15

aznb01777 I know you didn't suggest Blood Moon it was just a example. Holy crap I just realized that suspend worked on upkeep Paradox Haze sounds a lot more better than it did before going to see if I can make space for it. Greater Gargadon is just boring so I don't want him and Omniscience does not affect everyone and this deck was design to treat everyone equally through chaos but if I could get it out earlier it could lead to a bunch of crazy setups so I guess I will put it back in the maybeboard for now. :3

O ok, I didn't know this was suppose to be a hug deck, I don't know how ur playgroup feels but my group is ok with hug deck as long as it's not blue. I don't like getting hug knowing u r holding a knife behind my back. But yea, that's y I suggested Copy Enchantment and Reality Strobe for 6 mana and the set up u get a free bounce for the rest of the game. Not to mention copying mana breach would be super nasty

Blizzicane says... #17

aznb01777 Its not really a hug deck its a chaos deck so it has elements of group hug/slug/stax decks combined. :3

Blizzicane says... #18

Oh and I forgot the most important part which is chance (cards like Puppet's Verdict or anything with the word random). :3

August 9, 2014 5:12 a.m.

I like this deck, how long does it take to get crazy? What does the early, mid, and late game typically look like? I like causing crazy stuff to happen but am concerned others in my playgroup are going to be miffed at the non-win con after a while. Either way +1 awesome deck! Been looking for something to do with my Jhoira.

I like this refreshing new approach to Jhoira. ;) +1I'd suggest Enter the Infinite , especially if you're considering Omniscience . If you getta chance, I'd love to hear your thoughts on my Jhoira Deck: Hate Thief

Volcath Knowledge Pool is already on here and has been since the advent of this deck and Pact of Negation does not fit what I am trying to achieve at all. :S

Regardless thanks for comment! :3

2 ideas, one for winning would be to give Heartless Hidetsugu lifelink, possibly from Basilisk Collar due to color constraints

another idea would be to give him infect, and as long as everyone is over 20 life, they all die

Melek, Izzet Paragon would cause alot of chaos by doing things like Scrambleverse , Puppet's Verdict or Warp World .

the first two are obvious as to why melek makes them even more annoying but Warp World number one would trigger then all activated abilities would trigger, then on te copy you would do the same and have MORE abilities trigger.

Melek can also be annoying for any of the new hand spells that involve discarding and not library return as it is likely to put someones super dupa infinite win con into the grave and someone else's super dupa win con in their hand!

Also here are some cards that may be fun in the deck: Rite of Ruin , Guild Feud , Goblin Diplomats , Vicious Shadows , Nullstone Gargoyle , Show and Tell , Mycosynth Lattice .

overall i love the deck and am totally giving it +1

Huh didn't noticed your comment but I will reply now. :D

KieranBevan

Melek, Izzet Paragon is really fun but I run very few nonpermanents so I wouldn't be using his potential much.

Rite of Ruin while a fun wrath I rather use Obliterate which hits everything instead of a few and it can't be countered.

Guild Feud I don't run much creatures so the oppenents' would benefit this effect way more than I would.

Goblin Diplomats I prefer Grand Melee.

Vicious Shadows extremely expensive CMC for a not very exciting effect compared to my other cards.

Nullstone Gargoyle would probably hurt me the most as 93% of my deck is noncreature.

Show and Tell too costly wallet wise for a fun deck.

Mycosynth Lattice while an interesting effect it does not bring much to the table by itself for its cost, compared to something like Gate to the AEther.

I am sorry I didn't except any of your suggestions :C but it pleases me you like the deck and have upvoted it, so thank you for the feedback. :3
