So here's how it works: You have to mull until Dubious Challenge, using Serum Powders as you go (don't exile all your combo pieces though, be smart about it). Then ramp until challenge, using Silence as counter protection if you think they have it. If you resolve it, look through the top ten for an flickerboi and a hefty chonker: there's a >80% chance you'll hit both them, and that's not including fetching and not being dumb with powders. They chose one: if you get the chonker, nice, you just got a four mana emrakul, if they don't, you just flicker it back under your control.

It's your generic unfair combo deck that glass cannon style tries to go off before your opponent can do shit. You do have moments where you just mull to four just so you can get the challenge; then whiff, but that happens less than you'd think. All in all its actually pretty good in terms of consistent turn 4 fatties, and has the potential to get a turn 2 if you luck out. I always lose the turn after I get out emmy or Iona tho xD, it seems just a turn too slow.

Should prolly put in Horizon Canopys but I'm not sure how that would effect the arbour elf/Utopia Sprawl package, should prolly run the numbers.
