Orcish Librarian
Creature — Orc
(Red), Tap: Look at the top eight cards of your library. Remove four of them at random from the game, then put the rest on top of your library in any order.

I love this. I think Orcish Librarian is worth an include. It's generally going to be okay filtering for a janky commander deck and it's a lot of fun to play and look at. Thank you for sharing!

True. You could always roll the dice on Orcish Librarian…but I wouldn’t recommend it, ha.

Elsha, Infinite turns

Hi, I hope you are my friend and not a Clever Impersonator of him hacking his account.
I’ve done a Frantic Search in your deck, but didn’t find the Elsha of the Infinite
turns combo. Maybe the Orcish Librarian ate some pieces already?
Let me know if you want to do a Brainstorm session with me and do a Deep Analysis of the cards you chose, so you Think Twice about this combo of yours.
I would Cancel my plans for a Young Pyromancer like you and share my Chemister's Insight if that helps Increasing Devotion you have for this Devil's Play that we call Magic: the Gathering
I'm no Niv-Mizzet, Parun, you can count on me ;)

zacharyrtz I always keep that combo in my sideboard no matter what deck I play. Seems like the only deck building option at this point.
I just wanted to let you know that I went through some extensive testing with your list and the results are quite shocking:
Game 1: Turn 19 Cazur, Ruthless Stalker
Game 2: Turn 17 Ukkima, Stalking Shadow
Flip
Game 3: Turn 1 Orcish Librarian
Game 4: Turn 1 Food Chain
Game 5: Turn 6 Cazur, Ruthless Stalker
Game 6: Turn 5 Orcish Librarian
Game 7: Turn 1 Ukkima, Stalking Shadow
Flip
Game 8: Turn 42 Orcish Librarian
Game 9: Turn 1 Orcish Librarian
Game 10: Turn 2 Orcish Librarian
Clearly the deck works exactly how you want it to, curves out effortlessly and has the high-powered consistency to hold its own with any other deck in the meta. Congratulations on a flawlessly crafted deck, I will be letting WizardsOfTheCoast know shortly.

Doesn’t surprise me at all that your meta hasn’t grown into Ramunap Ruins yet, jmac44 - astonished that it didn’t make EDHrecs saltiest cards list. Dwarven Mine is fantastic with Orcish Librarian however it’s a tough call because it’s a pretty strict build around. I left the Mine out of my list because it’s the backbone of combos like Atogatog + 3x Chronatog Totem, so the ball is in your court at that point.

zacharyrtz I will stay tuned, can't wait. I'm in one of those classic metas where players see Ramunap Ruins and immediately complain. Would you recommend running Dwarven Mine in place to counteract this? It seems to synergize really well with Orcish Librarian.

Depending on how much emphasis you would like to put on attacking with Narset and controlling what cards will be on top of your library, you could look at Ancestral Knowledge, Contingency Plan, Orcish Librarian, and Taigam's Scheming.
