UB show and tell? You're already running the emrakuls and grisslybrands, and the 5cmc force of will
Alright I guess throwing together shitpiles to brew with bad cards is my second nature, so here you go.
4x Brainstorm
4x Ponder
4x Force of Will
2x Preordain
2x Flusterstorm
2x Spell Pierce
4x Show and Tell
4x Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
4x Omniscience
4x Baleful Strix
3x Yuriko
4x Keen Duelist
4x Polluted Delta
4x Underground Sea
3x Ancient Tomb
3x Island
1x Swamp
1x Boseiju
2x Scalding Tarn
I suspect most of the wins won't come from the 2-mana do-nothing but the actual good cards (Yuriko, Show and Tell)
Oh! And MDFCs are lands with cmcs allowing you to raise the damage output without cutting land
Hmm looking at Ninja lists that placed they don't seem to pack any of the MDFC lands, not even the blue one that casts all the cantrips and sits at CMC7. I don't know if it's because it was tested and found to be just bad or of it's an oversight because people forget those lands exist. Still, 3 life, one single color and Wasteland vulnerability isn't negligible, and I guess in a deck that'll take random damage from its own Duelists while giving the opp cards that could be wastelands the issue will be exacerbated.
T2 duelist pass, the opp has time to set up emrakul themselves, suddenly you're the one who's dead. Not everyone plays Emrakul you say? Alright, I guess they'll just set up Force of Will and deal you 5 while keeping FoW backup for whatever nonsense you throw at them next. Or they could just point at it any piece of removal under the sun short of Darkblast. Or you won't set up Emrakul because you'll have a hand full of lands and cantrips.
Legacy players slow to adapt?
Well I never!
I did post a decklist, didn't I? Go wild and test it on Cockatrice, I am agog to be proven wrong. In the meantime I have other shitbrews to attend to.
Tombstalker and gurmag? Or a shitty Black Vise deck!?

I'm thinkin' Tin Fins or Big Black.

Alright here's the fair version
4x Brainstorm
4x Ponder
4x Thoughtscour
4x Force of Will
4x Force of Negation
4x Daze
2x Brazen Borrower
2x Octavia
4x Keen Duelist
2x Ethereal Forager
3x Cryptic Serpent
2x Snuff Out
4x Drown in the Loch
1x Seagate Restoration
4x Polluted Delta
4x Prismatic Vista
2x Island
1x Swamp
3x Underground Sea
2x Scalding Tarn
Octavia for extra meme flavor. Didn't put Tombstalker cause costing BB sucks. Edit: removed Gurmag Angler to avoid the tension between delve/cost-reduction cards as Zoid said. (I still think a couple of Ethereal Forager is ok because they provide CA, delve 4 isn't that bad, it pitches to forces, etc. List is not tested, tune it yourself.)

I feel like the spell-lands (especially the ones that can enter untapped) are a really easy way to up our "big cost" count. Agadeem's a bit low-costed for that (and doesn't really work with Omniscience), but it does give us some inevitability over time. Sea Gate looks like a really strong inclusion. And Turntimber gets Griselbrand to swing for ten.
Just kicking things around at this point.

Fair but strong. Triggers for itself. 5/3

You don't have a food until the end of turn, so there's a window to Bolt it. At 4 mana and being able to Karakas it, Gyome doesn't seem too hot imho.
Alright I've always wanted to build a pitch shitpile.
4 Street Wraith
4 Chancellor of the Dross
4 Chancellor of the Forge
2 Vial Smasher the Fierce
2 Squee, Goblin Nabob
4 Soul Spike
4 Blazing Shoal
4 Fireblast
4 Entomb
4 Badlands
1 Mountain
4 Bloodstained Mire
4 Scalding Tarn
1 Verdant Catacombs
4 Reanimate
4 Faithless Looting
2 Unearth
4 Keen Duelist
Sideboard
4 Stronghold Gambit
4 Unmask
4 Leyline of the Void
1 Swamp
2 Pyroblast
You first get a few Chancellor triggers and then kind of hope to get there by either reanimating one of those, beating down with some Shoaled Goblin token or doing some dumb stuff with Soul Spike, with or without Duelist/Vial Smasher. More likely you'll just mulligan away bad hands and then topdeck Chancellors.
