Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
Decking? That's what we're reduced to? We
started with a deck that could kill on its third turn and we're
finishing with a deck that'll kill on its thirtieth?
Actually, that's not even close to true. Not if you fetch Auriok
Salvagers and Trinket Mage with Defense of the Heart. That's another
instant win. Use the Mage to tutor up your Lion's Eye Diamond (or your
Black Lotus, if you have one). Sac the LED for WWW and retrieve it with
the Salvagers. By repeating this process, you should be able to produce
an arbitrarily large amount of mana. Now, just use that mana to ... uh
...
Okay, unless you were lucky enough to draw one of these three cards, you
might have to do this in two steps, as with the Kaldra-assembling deck
above. First, fetch the Trinket Mage and an Eternal Witness. Replay the
Defense of the Heart. Second, fetch Auriok Salvagers and either
Ambassador Laquatus or Memnarch. Mill everyone or just steal all of
their permanents.
This combo, while "infinite" and therefore annoying, is ridiculously
disruptable. Withered Wretch, Glowrider, Disciple of the Vault, Arcane
Laboratory, True Believer, countermagic, and instant-speed creature
removal are just a few of the incidental "hate" cards you might face.
Think of the combo as the bayonet on the rifle: deadly, sure, but don't
expect to kill with it too often.
As for the rest of the deck, I cut the minor Hippo sub-theme (Pygmy
Hippo and both Phelddagrifs), in favor of a Seedborn Muse toolbox. This
should give you some measure of board control while your Dreamborn Muses
do their dirty business.
If the milling isn't working, for whatever reason, I've got yet another
back-up plan: Multani, Maro-Sorcerer and Indentured Djinn form a combo
so cute it wears diapers and asks you to buy its daddy's games.
