This has been my main deck since the release of Atraxa, and here's a few points that apply at least in games with four or more players:- Creatures like Gilder Bairn that need a full round to be useful, are most of the time too slow. They will be removed. How ever I really like the idea of Brago, it's a bold move that just might work in some strategies.- If most of your creatures are tokens, or low cmc, play Overburden. The card is insane. (It doesn't trigger on tokens. Check Gatherer.)- Blue Deck, where's your Rhystic Study?- Your planeswalkers will be the primary target, and Propaganda doesn't do anything to protect them.- Most times Wargate is better than Call the Gatewatch. It can give you doubling season, and Veil, etc. plus your walkers.- Nahiri and Ashiok don't really do anything in a deck like this. You're better off with other spells that have similar effects.- Spike Weaver + Atraxa = profit- Almost everyone plays Rings of Brighthearth in this deck, as it triggers from planeswalkers, but questioning it a bit, because it doesn't change the loyalty counters. Then again that can be a good thing if you use the lowering abilities a lot.- Other cards I love are Descend upon the sinful and Obzedat's Aid. But those are just my preferences.I dunno how frowned upon it is to link to other sites here, but anyways, here's a link to my last draft of this deck: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/brady-bunch-feat-atraxa/- That draft isn't the exact deck I play, for example I don't play Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath because it sucks in my opinion and was just a filler, but that's almost a replica of the deck I play.

Actually I have a rhystic study in there, and used to have a minds eye (which was so bad I had to swap it out). I don't have cash for demonic tutor. The caltrops idea is awesome though! Dismiss into dream doesn't combo with Sydris blue ability, as the artifacts are not creatures when targeted, altough it does work with the deathtouch/lifelink, and I will consider that. Thanks for the advice!
The probability to draw one of 2 planeswalkers, and one of 2 contagions is really small though
Too costly in price, don't fit into my budget
Have you tried it in a tournament yet? Really many red players have anger of gods in their sideboard, so be careful!
Why no mana vault =( Also Contagion artifacts seem weak in such a costly deck. Also consider Gilded lotus, 5cmc taps for 3 colorless in your deck. Also Mox Opal and Arcbound Ravager if you have the money.
I actually bought this deck yesterday because I wanted to start fixing it into my own version, but no one seems to have mentioned this giant problem I encountered playing it. The probe damages yourself when playing spells like Serene Remembrance or Gaea's Blessing. even at the slowest games I've been struggling not to kill myself. And I have yet to look into better options, but cranial archive is waaaaaay too costly to be played. Also, I'd consider some drawing in there.
Oh mi gosh, herra iso herra on Suomesta. Vaadin saada joskus tilaisuuden esitellä Combo of the Yearin jos eksyt vaikkapa Helsingin Poromagiaan. Jos muistat tämän: http://www.mtgvault.com/hungrymaster/decks/combo-of-the-year/
My friend, look at Patron of the Moon's ability. It creates a combo with Uyo, I think you will understand.
ALL HAIL THE GREAT LORD EGOTIST! Sure I know of THE Egotist, and own a couple of them too! Probably should add some in the sideboard.
I must admit, I named this deck purely for attention.
To clarify my goal here, I will explain it a bit more. I know the rules on using wishes, I play legacy tournaments after all. But with my friends we have a house rule that wishes can be used on any card you own, as it is a good laugh playing EDH, etc. and grab your card folder and start looking at options. So it is true that this deck isn't really legal in other places.As I hoard Storm Crows I only wanted a deck where I can really use them, as it isn't quite ordinary to see a deck that has dozens of cards with the same name on the battlefield (As long as we don't count Clones.). And as this is an infinite combo that isn't really meant to win games, I'm not considering to play it often. It's just a joke that I can show players new to the game or my card group.
I have so many Storm Crows that I don't care to count. I just put the number 1337 there. And if you don't know about LEET, you must be really to the nerd community.
Legal where exactly? Modern? This is a casual deck, and I and my friends use the vintage-ban list in our house rules.
Actually, as I have a few Chimney Imps, and this deck produces infinite mana for all colours, all I need is to keep my Imps with me.
I don't actually consider playing this deck often. I only wanted it so I can have a use for all my Storm Crows.
It's true that it is a joke, and I consider it to be a combo when you look at Pili-Pala+Grand Architect, and ofcourse Uyo+Patron of the Moon.
Oh boy what an off-topic discussion on my deck =D. I know the rules on using wishes, I play legacy tournaments after all. But with my friends we have a house rule that wishes can be used on any card you own, as it is a good laugh playing EDH, etc. and grab your card folder and start looking at options. So it is true that this deck isn't really legal in other places.
This is mostly composed of cards I already own, I just wanted to doodle around this site, to see it with one glimpse. I have almost no extra money to spend, so the land base is very limited.
It does work, Emrakuls protection is only from spells, aka instants and sorceries.
