So... I haven't playtested this at all... I just think it would be funny. With 2 Yuriko's, you can Annihilator trigger, and then hold priority returning Yuriko and Emrakul to hand, then! You can Emrakul and take an extra turn... and do it again. Sure... you can just hit your opponent with Emrakul and end the game quickly, but having the game, but being merciful to your opponent...
As long as Yuriko is in play, you don't even have to show and tell since you have so much big stuff to reveal. If anyone actually tries it let me know lol.
Red Deck Weekly -- I'm bad at magic
Ive been brewing something similar. I must admit the slow death tactics never ocurred to me, ive been all about revealing high cmc spells.
I think shifting the mana base and taking out a few cards for 3-4 erratic explosives might be useful for sudden burst damage with its ability being similar to yuriko’s life loss ability. Though it does has several disadvantages 1. It is off color. 2. It is instant rather than sorcery so you can’t say surprise a storm player who just used ad nauseam. 3 it requires either setup or luck to not just be card and tempo disadvantage. But it it does have some pros. 1 it has a similar game plan yurikos life loss. 2 the deck has many high cmc cards and deck manipulation spells.
