Deck Description

My take on the legacy uberdeck. Updates for this version: added sideboard and slight modification to creatures and lands.

The basic strategy is to Cascade on turn 1 into Hypergenesis, then start a search chain for your 4 Rune-Scarred Demons followed by Urabrask (or Malfegor if your opponent brings out flyers), plus any other stompies you happen to have in your hand.
The deck is extremely potent, but relies on a good starting hand, otherwise the combo is compromised. A single Duress if you don't get the first turn can ruin the combo.

The sideboard choices were based on different scenarios. Leyline of Sanctity is there to oppose Discard decks, the single biggest threat to the archetype. Blasphemous Act combined with Emrakul deals with any big creature decks. Grozoth and the Demons of Death's Gate can be added to the Rune-Scarred Demon chain to bolster your ranks if you need them. I'm not sure about the Woodfall Primus, any good alternatives?
