Since https://www.magickartenmarkt.de/img/5811558a81d0da8294c1d64709894669/cards/Eldritch_Moon/eldritch_evolution.jpg got spoilered I was thinking about how to abuse it. The first idea were delve creatures into some fatty, but EE needs a lot of creatures in your deck to be not dead most of the time and delve creatures usually work best with a lot of spells, so I turned to the other big cost cheater in modern: Eldrazi Temple. Temple let's you play a 3 drop on turn 2 even if your one drop got bolted, which can lead to a 5 Drop on turn 3.
LANDS
1 Horizon Canopy
2 Stirring Wildwood
4 Windswept Heath
2 Temple Garden
1 Forest
1 Plains
4 Brushland
2 Wooded Bastion
1 Ghost Quarter
4 Eldrazi Temple
2 Cavern of Souls
SPELLS
4 Path to Exile
3 Eldritch Evolution
CREATURES
4 Noble Hierarch
1 Birds of Paradise
3 Voice of Resurgence
3 Kitchen Finks
4 Matter Reshaper
2 Eldrazi Displacer
4 Thought-Knot Seer
4 Reality Smasher
1 Thragtusk
1 Wingmate Roc
1 Baneslayer Angel
1 Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite
SIDEBOARD
1 Elderscale Wurm
1 Melira, Sylvok Outcast
1 Sigarda, Host of Herons
2 Stony Silence
1 Celestial Purge
1 Natural State
1 Reclamation Sage
1 Fracturing Gust
3 Loxodon Smiter
2 Dismember
1 Acidic Slime
The deck is a little less clunky than it looks, since you can play six of your 3 drops turn 2 if you have a temple. Wingmate Roc is pretty much a flying Thragtusk and probably the best thing to evolve into after attacking with your three drop. Elesh Norn in a deck full of creatures and with a weakness to other board control decks (think Abzan Company or Kiki Chord) seems to slot in perfectly. I would be very happy for input, especially for creatures in the sideboard as silver bullet against certain matchups (Tron, Affinity come to mind). 4-5 Mana would be preferable, since those are the easiest to tutor for.
