A Protean Hulk build in the post-Flash cEDH world that uses Oracle and Consultation lines to efficiently combine the power of Hulk and Razaketh as reanimation targets.

Razaketh Lines:

If you have too few creatures, but at least one, you can use an extra to tutor up Life / Death to create as many creatures as you need from your lands.

Eternal Witness can be replaced by Lurrus of the Dream-Den in all these lines if you want to do that.

Main line (requires 13 life, 2 creatures and 0 mana in addition to Razaketh):

  1. Sac the 1st creature to tutor for LED. Play LED and crack it for .
  2. Sac the 2nd creature to tutor for Eternal Witness, play it and return LED to your hand. Play it again and crack for .
  3. Sac Eternal Witness to tutor up Reanimate, use it to return Eternal Witness to the field, returning LED to your hand, play it and crack it for .
  4. Sac Eternal Witness to tutor for Thassa's Oracle
  5. Play Thassa's Oracle to put its ETB on the stack. Before it resolves, sac Thassa's Oracle to tutor for Demonic Consultation or Tainted Pact (you should have enough mana for either one).
  6. Exile your library with your forbidden tutor of choice, then let the Thassa's Oracle trigger resolve to win the game.

You can use Animate Dead or Dance of the Dead instead of Reanimate here. It saves you 3 life, but only leaves you with enough mana for Demonic Consultation, so you can't use Tainted Pact.

Main line if Reanimate, Animate Dead & Dance of the Dead are not available (requires 8 life, 2 creatures and in addition to Razaketh):

  1. Sac the 1st creature to tutor for LED. Play LED and crack it for .
  2. Sac the 2nd creature to tutor for Eternal Witness, play it and return LED to you hand. Play it again and crack it for .
  3. Sac Eternal Witness to tutor for Thassa's Oracle.
  4. Play Thassa's Oracle to put its ETB on the stack. Before it resolves, sac Thassa's Oracle to tutor for Demonic Consultation.
  5. Exile your library with Demonic Consultation, then let the Thassa's Oracle trigger resolve to win the game.

Alternatively this line can be useful if you're low on life.

Hulk Lines:

Standard Spellseeker pile (requires in addition to your Hulk trigger, or Blood Pet in the deck):

  1. Get your Protean Hulk dead.
  2. Put Spellseeker and Thassa's Oracle onto the battlefield.
  3. Stack your ETBs so that Spellseeker resolves first and tutor up Demonic Consultation.
  4. Cast Demonic Consultation and exile your library, then let the Thassa's Oracle trigger resolve to win the game.

You can use Blood Pet in the deck to pay for the mana cost of this pile. this wasn't really considered optimal in Sushi Hulk, as it is a potentially dead draw, but since we don't run Breakfast lines in this, it might be worth considering.

The main advantage Hulk lines have over Raza lines, is that they are possible at instant speed. This is enabled by cards like Necromancy and Apprentice Necromancer, that can reanimate Hulk at instant speed and sac it without the need for further resources. Shallow Grave can potentially do similar things, but needs a sac outlet and Hulk on top of the grave.
