Hi all, thanks for checking out the deck.

This is cEDH brew I've been working on in which the strategy is to win with flash hulk, pod combo or isochron combo. Some of these combos are tried and true; a few are a little rare.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wincons

Flash combo

We all know the classic Flash + Protean Hulk . My targets are not too out of ordinary.

• When hulk dies I grab the classic Karmic Guide + Carrion Feeder to reset Hulk.
• After sacrificing Hulk to Feeder I grab Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker , I tap him to create a token of Karmic guide.
• While holding priority I sacrifice the Kiki-Jiki, creating a hasty token of Guide bringing back our goblin friend.

Rinse and Repeat.

But wait there's more.

Flash not only combos with Hulk but with Academy Rector getting, you guessed it, Omniscience

With Omniscience in play I can any number of my tutors to combo out. Here's can example:

• Cast Demonic Tutor grabbing Increasing Ambition

• Cast IV to get Seasons Past

With this loop I can create infinite gravestorm, tutor for Bitter Ordeal any number of cards I want. I usually grab a Counterspell and/or Force of Will to protect our finisher.

As long as the tutors are of different CMC it doesnt matter which you use.

Bonus Synergy Show

Protean Hulk can grab Academy Rector and Carrion Feeder

Pod Combo

I use Birthing Pod in a number of ways. Here's an example:

• Pod off Baleful Strix get Derevi, Empyrial Tactician , untap pod.

• Use pod on Derevi to get Felidar Guardian resetting pod.

• Pod off guardian to get Karmic Guide returning guardian to play, once again resetting pod.

• We use one last pod activation on guardian to get Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker .

• With Kiki-Jiki in play we can make a copy of Karmic Guide, getting back Felidar Guardian.

• This resets our mad goblin, allowing him to make a copy of guardian.

Rinse and Repeat.

Reveillark can also fit into this chain getting back combo pieces.

As long as you have a 2 or 3 CMC dude on the board and Pod it's game.

Isochron Combo

One can use Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal + 2 to 3 mana rocks to generate infinite mana.

We can use this in substitute for Omniscience , casting our tutors and comboing out.

Bonus Synergy Show

Ischron Scepter can make use of any of our 2 cmc or less instants.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Wishboard

This probably one of more exciting parts of this deck.

Having a wish board turns our 2 wish cards ( Burning Wish and Mastermind's Acquisition ) into 10 cards.

• Austere Command - A versatile wipe.

• Chaos Warp - Spot removal that hits nigh everything.

• Conflux - This helps storming off with Omniscience .

• Crucible of Worlds - There's a land deck in my meta and I like having my lands not in the graveyard.

• Grafdigger's Cage - Useful against reanimator decks and recursion.

• Memory's Journey - Strictly for combo protection.

• Null Rod - Slows down a lot of decks, we are playing control after all.

• Relic of Progenitus - A little extra graveyard control.

• Sadistic Sacrament - Stop an opponent from comboing off this game.

• Time Warp - Incase you need to get ahead. It also goes infinite with Seasons Past .

I must emphasize that your wishboard should really match your meta, it's a versatile toolbox.
