This is more of a kitchen table thing though. I know how my friends play and this would really fuck with them in the worst way

I said don't be too harsh. This isn't harsh so much as constructive feedback to me. Anyhow yes, I get that the deck is complicated. It's only the initial build and I haven't smoothed out any of the kinks in it yet. Now I do want to point out that you actually misread something somewhere around turn two. You said I would use entomb to get omen and left it at that, but assuming that I had an enlightened tutor in hand I would be able to cast it that turn. That actually would speed up my clock just a tiny bit, but it helps. As for no removal and such, yeah I know, but I want to see what does and doesn't need to be in here first before I start chipping away for removal. I made this over the course of two days so I haven't had a lot of time to sort everything out, plus I haven't even tried to test it on paper. Now the reason I went with using the enchantments and not something else like colossus is because that wasn't my focus. Yah I could switch to that and be better off, but I don't want to because then it's not what I had initially wanted to do. As for the blood artist/ratchet bomb/tokens thing, it's only there as a contingency. Even if I sac a token to chump block and it doesn't kill the opposing creature, I still get a life and the other guy loses one. So long as it's not trample or anything else janky, I'm fine. As for picking one plan or the other, I can make different decks, but I like this build. It just needs work.

Ok so I'm not sure how well this would actually work, but I made a combo deck. Please don't butcher it too harshly. I wanted to make it modern initially, but it just proved too difficult to speed it up to make it an almost viable threat. So then, I give you...

Mine too, but now I just stick with magic. It's so much easier to look up magic cards than yugioh cards when deck building, plus magic is way more interesting to play

Because the next best thing is pyretic ritual, which is crap compared to seething song. And it's kitchen table guys. Legality means jack in this case

All three of the original god cards, the newer versions from gx, and every card related to blue-eyes and red-eyes, and then some. I played four years before all the people I played with stopped or moved, plus moving myself

Saw it on the new page. Sounded interesting

Anyone amigo

You might consider a Dakmor Salvage if you're going to run Ravens Crime. It's incredibly helpful if you're not hitting land but want some hand control

I really don't like doing this, but oh well. So I'm trying to get word going on a story I'm writing, so I made this little promo deck to hopefully get it some attention.

I'm not really seeing any turbo going on here. Maybe if you had aether vial I could see it being more of a turbo style build. It just looks like exalted with removal in it

I was curious when I saw the name and the Eldrazi tag. Wanted to see just what it was offering

Love it! Would probably build my own, but the mana base just kills the pocketbook. Would need to work on it

Wow. That's pretty brutal. Shame they banned bloom in modern

Woop woop! I'm working on a few ideas as well. Don't know when I'll finish them though

I still have my old yugioh decks myself. Back when they weren't outdated, my dragons were undefeated. Nothing topped them. Didn't matter what it was, nothing worked against them. They had a very nasty habit of complete blowouts for victories. And heaven forbid you killed one after I summoned it. I just wish I had a magic deck that had that same level of ferocity. I would literally be untouchable. Oh well though. My friends already hate my deck designs, so I doubt they would forgive me if I made a deck like that

Needs more descendants path

Well considering that the deck was built to the player's preference, I don't really feel the need to question it. I could easily argue for using all the bolt spells but that would almost triple this decks price. It's a semi budget deck. No it's not value according to damage per card, but it still works

Plunge is to help cast brimstone volley. Using plunge gets the morbid effect. Seething song is basically the same reason, or to just speed out burn

I think the biggest thing going for izzet suspend is jhoira. He Her ability makes it so insane to just suspend stuff that you wouldn't be able to cast normally without building specifically for it, like omniscience or darksteel colossus. I'm rooting with a commander deck using her
