Description of deck by it's author (quoted):
I have been toying around with an Extended deck for the post 8th environment that uses Merchant Scroll. The deck is not quite there yet. It does win but not consistently enough for my tastes. I am definitely open to suggestions and will do a follow up if there is any real progress on the deck. It is based on two older decks - High Tide and Dark Tide with a dash of Tight Sight for taste. The former used the eponymous spell High Tide and the untap cards from Urza's Saga to generate huge amounts of mana and kill the opponent with Stroke of Genius.

When High Tide and all of Fallen Empires left Extended a few rotations ago it was replaced with a less successful two color version that used Bubbling Muck. Here I tried to combine the mana production of the Bubbling Muck with the ability to play free spells off of Mind's Desire. The goal is to kill your opponent with a Stroke of Genius - remember X = 0 when the spell is played off of a Mind's Desire so you have to get one in hand to go off successfully. There is also a Brain Freeze which can be played for free off of the Mind's Desire.
