I'm thinking this could be used in legacy in like a belcher-type shell (1 or 0 lands) so u ramp to four, mill your whole deck and then kill with nacomeba, dredge return, karmic guide, kiki jiki, and any untapper (pestermite, etc.)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but there doesn't seem to be a hypergenesis thread yet. Let's change that. The deck has put up some good results lately and could be the real deal. Todd Anderson made top 8 of a SCG open and there was one that Top 16ed a GP recently. Here's my build:
// Lands
1 [M13] Island (1)
4 [ZEN] Misty Rainforest
1 [M13] Mountain (1)
4 [ZEN] Scalding Tarn
1 [R] Tropical Island
1 [R] Volcanic Island
2 [ON] Wooded Foothills
1 [CHK] Forest (1)
1 [M13] Island (4)
// Creatures
4 [AL] Elvish Spirit Guide
3 [ROE] Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
3 [AVR] Griselbrand
3 [CFX] Progenitus
4 [PLC] Simian Spirit Guide

4 [P12] Shardless Agent
4 [NPH] Chancellor of the Annex
4 [NPH] Chancellor of the Tangle
// Spells
4 [AL] Force of Will
4 [ARB] Violent Outburst
2 [TSP] Hypergenesis
4 [US] Show and Tell
// Sideboard
SB: 2 [MM] Misdirection
SB: 3 [NPH] Dismember
SB: 4 [M11] Leyline of Sanctity
SB: 4 [M11] Leyline of the Void
SB: 2 [LRW] Ingot Chewer
What could make this deck better? Most decks are a good matchup except the ones with a lot of counterspells like RUG delver and merfolk. Has anyone else been testing this deck?
With Myr Welder out and a Soliton and Guilded Lotus on the yard, you can get infinite mana. Think this has any competitive implications or is this just a casual combo for the kitchen table only?
I was just looking at the wizards page for the modern PTQ schedule and it says there are only about 72 PTQs worldwide but I thought there is supposed to be about 200 per season. Is this season short on PTQs or have they just not posted them all yet?

Think it has a chance of being competitive? Any other thoughts on how to use immortal servitude or cards to add? Thanks!:cool2:
