Unless you're playing against Falco you can land this wombo combo!

Here is my Approach of the Second Sun deck. With lots of cycling and drawing you can reach your second sun fairly quickly! if you have mana or As Foretold, Failure / Comply lets you win off just one Approach of the Second Sun by returning it to your hand and allowing you to cast the same one next turn. I'm trying to avoid the cards that are about to cycle out of standard. Let's see those happy feet and comment if you have some suggestions!

After very nearly beating a deck a lot like this on Game Day by milling their Approaches into the graveyard, I'd suggest adding Commit / Memory at least to your sideboard as a bit of protection against that sort of thing, as that was the only thing that saved them.

That's a good idea. I'll add two to the sideboard! thanks! The sideboard needs a bit of work so it'll be a nice addition

I like that the deck is well-prepared for when Oath and Shadows blocks rotate out. However, I was wondering what you were looking at for replacement options with Sphinx of the Final Word rotating out. I know not everything from Ixalan has been spoiled yet, though I cam curious.

I have not looked at the spoilers yet so when I do I'll have to keep my eyes open for replacements there. If you see anything that could work let me know!

Happy Feet.

Hands up

@IcyFire81 Carnage Tyrant looks like a great replacement for the Sphynx.

Carnage Tyrant seems pretty sweet, however the sphynx is in here for his ability to keep my sorceries from being countered. Lets me land second suns against control match ups.

But we lose the sphynx in the rotation, that's the problem.

I dig the janky idea of the deck. xD Brain in a Jar could be another way to cast a free Approach but it takes a bit more work than the As Foretold. There's also Bounty of the Luxa as an engine card for building up to the finish. And don't forget about Unsubstantiate as a way to stay alive longer and combo in place of Failure

Bounty of the Luxa is a great Idea! I was trying to think of good ways to add a little bit of ramp and that would be great, thanks! I'll have to try some Unsubstantiate but I'm a big fan of failure's second half as well. Brain in a Jar is a cool card, but As Foretold will let me cast on my turn as well as theirs. Thanks for those suggestions!

After Ixalan's release, you'll be able to add more dual lands, like Sunpetal Grove ;)

Don't forget about Tamiyo's Journal. so you can get Approach of the Second Sun.

August 13, 2017 2:18 p.m.

I'll have to try out the journal and see how it works out! Right now I am using cycling to dig through the deck and find them. I'm not sure if the one clue card will work out too well so we will have to find out
