This deck has it all, card draw (9), pure advantage wheel effects (11), good stuff, competitive multiplayer control, strong tutor package (13), ramp (10), a fantastic protection package (12) and a couple combos to close out the game. There is great redundancy. No infinite combo's but some cruel control. It is easy to roll over your opponents with board presence, but admittedly it has proven sometimes difficult to finish the game as there is little damaging power. Thus I have added the Doomsday and Laboratory Maniac combos.

From this point on I give lots of credit to Coucho_Marx for his thoughts and deck development.

Playing a wheel card with Leovold, Emissary of Trest in play leaves all your opponents with one just card (sometimes none!). This leaves you in a great position to combo out in safety. Teferi's Puzzle Box and Anvil of Bogardan are notable in that they create soft locks with Leovold - they draw normally first, then tuck their whole hand and draw nothing. Unless that one drawn card is a relevant instant (like removal), they have no opportunity to play anything. This deck is built more for combo and resilience. dump hands and go straight for Doomsday, Tainted Pact or Demonic Consultation and Laboratory Maniac.

Comments and suggestions are welcome !!
