After a long time of experimenting with a deck built around Fist of Suns and not coming to a satisfying conclusion, i found this good looking version: http://archive.wizards.com/Magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/rc/292.

As the builder says it's quite consistant and it looks really good in my opinion.

The Strategy:

Main issue of this deck is to actually cast Emrakul, the Aeons Torn with the help of Fist of Suns. This is even possible on turn 3! Here's the proof:

T1: Forest, Birds of Paradise

T2: cast Lotus Cobra before land drop

-> play Scalding Tarn and add one mana to your mana pool through Lotus Cobra

-> sac Scalding Tarn,bring a Mountain and add another mana to your mana pool through Lotus Cobra

-> tap Mountain for the third mana and play Fist of Suns

T3: play Scalding Tarn and add a white mana through Lotus Cobra

-> sac Scalding Tarn and bring an Island, add a black mana through Lotus Cobra

-> tap Forest, Mountain and Island and cast the game winning Emrakul, the Aeons Torn with the extra turn.
