Deck Tech-ish :

New year's resolution : bring a recording of the Time Warp scene from Rocky Horror Picture Show and starts playing it when you go off.

This is the deck I play when I want to win in my playgroup (and want to lose some friends). Plan A is attack with Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder and if you connect, you win 95% of the time either by finding a Time Warp-like or drawing obscenes amounts of cards via Waste Not/Notion Thief and a wheel effect.

Plan B is sticking a card advantage machine like Sylvan Library, Bolas's Citadel or Teferi, Temporal Archmage and Time warping until an accumulation of value and additional turns that makes the table scoops, I have an extra turn token for the occasion. Note that the Citadel combines with Sensei's Divining Top to make a Yawgmoth's Bargain, and wins with any way to put an extra turn on top of your deck.

Plan C is exploding enough mana to cast Expropriate or Time Stretch on turn 3/4 and win by casting Yidris and attacking the second turn. The actual win condition of the deck is Chandra, Torch of Defiance's emblem, with a Yidris trigger you effortlessly destroy the table in one single turn. The deck can also Mnemonic Betrayal his way into a combo, or just steal dead beaters and just keep time-warping. Beware of the Mana Crypt though, you can't answer it with your removals.

Plan D is regular Storm stuff with Thousand-Year Storm supported by Yawgmoth's Will and the rituals. The requirements are very low to win when you have the Storm in play, but usually it's better to set up a Yawgmoth's Will and then fetch the Storm to ensure the kill. If you don't risk dying because of Mana Crypt, use the Chandra emblem, and if you do, mow down your opponents deck and permanents with Wheels and Assassin's Trophy and with four decks at your disposal, Mnemonic Betrayal should find a way to win.

Of course, that's not an optimal version of the deck, but I keep it because I started brewing it myself the week Yidris got spoiled and I'm quite proud of it. It's also extremely fun to play and one the most miserable deck to lose to because of the non-deterministic nature of the combo, wich means you have to waste everyone's time to show them you're not durdling into oblivion.

The deck is kind of a running joke with my friends and shines during those evenings where people starts pulling the big guns with tuned lists.
