Can I respond to someone ending their second main phase, or is that not really a thing? Like this situation:
Player 1: Let me know when you are ending your main phase (has mana floating)
Player 2: Ok, ending my main phase.
Player 1: *casts a spell with flash or and instant*
Player 2: I now cast *some non instant card or card without flash*.
Ok, so my opponent attacks with a 30/30 trample creature. I choose to block with two creature, one of which is academy rector. He orders the blockers with academy rector being second. Can the opponent decide to just deal all of the damage to the first blocker, as to not kill the rector? I understand that none of it would go to me, but when you deal lethal damage to one creature, do you have to then deal damage to the next blocker? This problem has been bothering me for weeks. Please help.
I do like your idea for lowering mana costs. I don't really want to put Sac outlets in that aren't useful (pump sac outlets aren't useful to me). Sadistic hypnotist is a card I previously had in there. I cut it because I didn't like the sorcery speed clause. I think I may add it back in again. I have taken your advice in adding aven mindcensor. Oversold Cemetery has not impressed me. It was in the original build of the deck. I cut it for being underwhelming. I am cutting akroma's memorial and a few other big drops. Now I need to do a gatherer search lol.
When I saw this card leaked I knew I wanted to make a deck with him at the helm. This deck is amazing in multiplayer in my playgroup. I would like to hear your thoughts on this deck. No infinite combos. So don't tell me to add tutors and things to make the deck more consistent. I like the randomness of the deck with the few things that can make it a tad more consistent. Thanks in advanced guys.
Your deck seems to have some nice cards. I do question some of the cards in the deck that you posted, but others have been in and out of my deck for years. As you can see this deck has been around for at least 4 years, probably more since I didn't just post my deck as soon as I made it. I have tried many of the cards, and now that I am going back to a less combo oriented build, I feel that some of the cards on your list are ppretty decent replacements, that I also have foil versions of.
You should take a look at my Mimeoplasm deck in my sig. I think that it has the same idea and it works really well for me. It is really fun. I feel like some of the card choices are a little odd here. Also, how does this deck not run Rite of Replication? I wouldn't worry too much about milling and stuff. I kind of let other people play. Playing the game normally gets the cards you want in the graveyard.
I would like to agree with some people here that are saying cut some wraths and Kozilek. Another thing that I think might be cool, and I am currently trying to do is to add in smokestack. Dire Undercurrents is also really amazing. Discard is really under rated here and the card draw is really powerful as well.
I have been considering adding in the black god too. How has it been working out for you?
Ok. So I haven't updated this in a while. I think I am going to take some suggestions people have been making in the thread. In order to make the deck be less of a feel bad deck I am going to take out the Helm of Obedience. To replace it I am going to add Oona's Blackguard.
Cards that I am thinking of adding Smokestack. I really wish they could unban Painter's Servant so I could use it here :(.
It was a really bad combo but also really mean. I had vedalken orrery out. Activated mindslaver with 4 mana avalable still.
During that players turn, I cast lethal vapors and had that player activate the 0 ability 1,000,000,000 times. He was not very happy with me. Not that it has to due with the effect of the card, but he still has not played a game with me.

What do you guys think?
