What -can't- this deck do?! Well, honestly, there's a lot that it can't do. It's all the crazy things that it does do that make it so amazingly fun, devious, and downright mean at times. Kurkesh's ability, with as cheap as it is, is incredibly easy to exploit and abuse.

I can mana ramp by copying simple artifacts like Wayfarer's Bauble and Burnished Hart, then bring them back from the graveyard with a copied Trading Post, only to sac them again for more wonderful mana.

I can proliferate the holy hell out of everything with all that extra mana to spend on Contagion Engine and Contagion Clasp.

I can mill my opponent's libraries to nothing with some spare mana and a few well copied blasts from Sands of Time or the more devious and maniacal Decimator Web .

Add into the mix a copied Liquimetal Coating tap and an Clock of Omens, and Krenko, Mob Boss, Koth of the Hammer, Hoard-Smelter Dragon ,and Falkenrath Exterminator become even more incredible.

For more devious fun, copy Liquimetal Coating 's ability on a couple of your opponent's permanants, then bring them to heel with a copied Rust Tick tap.

Throw in Daretti, Scrap Savant's amazing self, and you have a crazy, snappy, witty deck that is insanely fun to play, experiment with, and constantly learn new and fun ways to abuse my Onakke friend's incredible talent. There's plenty of other combos in this deck, I'll just let the list speak for itself...

I imagine there are probably a million things I could do to tweak this deck, including the Mycosynth Lattice I am thinking of purchasing and putting in, but this was the best I could do with what I had in my collection. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. If you have ideas on how this deck could become even more crazy, please, let me know!
