The idea is to discard Emrakul at the end of an opponent's turn with one of the looters and immediately makeshift it into play. Liliana is able to assemble most of the combo herself in one turn and Thoughtseize can be used as a discard source in emergencies (although not at instant speed). The key problem is keeping the looters alive and the single Redirect is an experiment. My original list was faerie based and utilized Oona's Prowler as the discard source but I couldn't quite make a list I liked, you're welcome to try. Thoughts/comments/ideas?
I really liked the look of that card when I was browsing but I'm looking to build with the rotation in mind. I don't think a deck like this can survive in a format with grove/punishing combo, not only does it kill most of the looters it means too many people are mainboarding graveyard hate like Relic

Read the last few lines on his post.
With a vengence...
Put Iona in the sideboard against combo decks and mono colored decks.
