Deck Description

Suggestions appreciated!

How to Play

If you suspend Aeon Chronicler with Jhoira it costs you only 2 mana to draw 4 cards and get a decent creature into play!
With Deep-Sea Kraken, Rift Elemental and Jhoira you can get the Kraken ready to attack on turn 5. Or Emrakul, that would be fine, too I guess :P

Paradox haze? just for extra upkeeps

Yeah it's a great card but I think it's better to either wait it out or get your Rift Elemental ready. Also Remand and the other counterspells are there to buy me time. Maybe another card to search my deck for Rift Elemental, but I don't know what the good Brainstorm-cards in Modern are or what to remove.

Turn 3: Jhoira
Turn 4: suspend Tenacruel
Turn 8: Tentacruel enters play.

If you had one Paradox Haze out:
Turn 3: Jhoira
Turn 4: suspend Tenacruel
Turn 6: Tentacruel enters play.

Then there are other cards you could use:
Clockspinning
Fury Charm
Jhoira's Timebug
Timebender
Timecrafting

Also, I think Pyretic Ritual and or Desprate Ritual with a Manamorphose could help get Jhoria out on turn 2 :p

Yeah Haze speeds it up but not as good as the Elemental.
T4 Suspend Emrakul, remove a counter
T5 Remove two more counters with the Elemental, attack with Emrakul, your opponent gives up

Here's a deck from me that's a bit older and uses more "suspend acceleration": http://www.mtgvault.com/cruncher/decks/the-suspense-is-killing-me/

Rituals and more acceleration are both nice but they force even more commitment to my combo. I like having counterspells and a bit of removal in case I don't even draw into Jhoira.

I love it! The only sad thing is that Emrakul comes in with out all of the extra bang from the hard cast.

It does because you play it you don't just put it into play

I would argue that, since Emrakul says "When you cast" and suspend does not say "cast" then you do not get the effect. Same would go for Kozilek and Ulamog. Playing a card and casting a card may look to be the same, but the wording is so mired...I would have to say that the effect does not trigger. I may be mistaken (and it would be awesome if I was), but I rather doubt it (my pessimism is almost limitless =/ ).

Suspend's ruling states; "When the last is removed, CAST it without paying its mana cost. It has haste."

Yeah back in the Time Spiral block they had different wording which can lead to confusion. Comes into play became enters the battlefield later on, for example.

And that's why I check Gatherer for wording updates :p

MTGVault could have updated the Modern Masters cards, there are some reprints of suspend cards with the new wording. But now I just hope they get M14 in the database quickly :)

Okay, I see what you are trying to do, and it looks way to slow, you know, there are ways to get every suspended card out with one card, take a look, I think that it would do this deck some good

I encourage you to take a look!
