Budget-ish classic Emry combo, attempting to go infinite with untapping emry/casting self sacrificing artifacts, or scrap trawler loops. KCI is a very good card. It's just cards I own, no proxies, and there are some pretty obvious upgrades to make it a full cedh deck, including cheaper/free coutnerspells like fierce guardianship, even more artifact ramp like mana crypt and mana vault, etc. You can easily cut down on redundant combo pieces because of tutors and such, but I do like the resiliency and redundancy to bring the power level down a little bit, with this being my most powerful deck by a significant margin.

Bread and butter combos: There are lines to win without Emry, but when winning with her you're gonna need an untap payoff (Mirran Spy, Clock of Omens, Aura of Dominion, Chakram Retriever, Thornbite Staff, or Dross Scorpion), a 0 mana artifact in the yard (a mox, Lotus Petal, a bauble, Ornithopter/Memnite, etc.), and a win-condition payoff (Aetherflux Reservoir, Walking Ballista, Grinding Station, Dilligent Excavator, etc.)

The reason this deck is titled 'Head Full Emry' is because all of the pieces mentioned above work with different restrictions. If you're going to combo with Dross Scorpion for example, you need either Liquimetal Coating or Ashnod's Transmorgrant so that it can untap Emry. Walking Ballista is only a wincon if your combo is creating infinite mana, etc etc. This means this deck can keep a lot of hands, because it can pivot towards a different combo on a whim. Oh no, my KCI got exiled? I'll go tutor for Ashnod's Altar. You killed my Miran Spy? I can get a different untapper, or, I can get it back with The Underworld Cookbook's forgotten ability to return a creature from the yard. This deck is full of options, its a ton of fun to play, while also being a complete headache to pilot. I love it.

If you have any suggestions of things I'm missing, unnecessary cards, or have anything to say at all, please comment I'd love to hear it!
