Not entirely annihilated. I feel like this deck has trouble actually winning since it's hard to cast a Dockhand while needing to activate one. But a draw is as good as a win for a floor deck.
4-1
Interesting that most decks just did their own thing and ignored the opponent. I wonder if that's secretly what we all want to do.

My Eldrazi annihilates you, but FTW can't cast Emrakul, and Junktroller holds off the Fanatic forever.
By my quick count, both of the fine print rules are relevant (higher of two medians, earlier submitted deck counts as higher). I make lots of play mistakes though, so we'll see.

I wanted to do something silly, like 4CB Miracles (cast a card from library in a format with no library). I was going to play Sister Repentia, but Metamorphosis Fanatic is funnier. This is a great rules trap: so close to working in many ways, but never does.
If you try to draw-discard to get both Miracle & Eldrazi shuffle triggers at the same time (stacking Miracle on top, then casting Fanatic while Emrakul is in the grave), it doesn't work because Bazaar discards the Fanatic out of hand and it's in the wrong zone when the Miracle trigger resolves. The 4CB random rule also means you always draw the cards in the worst possible order. Depending on library order, you can try tricks: Bazaar on upkeep, Bazaar in response to Miracle, or Bazaar on opponent's turn. But the stack always resolves in the wrong order to make Emrakul. The deck perpetually tries to make Emrakul and misses each time.
In the end, it's only turn 4 4/4 lifelink (recurring infinitely).

Your wall is too big, and my lifelink accelerates your clock. LL 0-6
GoblinSmashmaster: Mercadian Bazaar, Goblin Pyromancer, Junktroller, Hall of the Bandit Lord
T4 4/4 gets you down to 12-16 life before you make T6 Junktroller. Then you only get 3-5 Pyromancer attacks (15-25 damage) before running out of life to activate Hall, and I've gained a ton of life. DD 2-2
Silkster: Hickory Woodlot, City of Traitors, Elvish Piper, Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
Your Eldrazi actually enters the battlefield, too good. LL 0-6
dte: Mishra's Factory, Mishra's Factory, Mishra's Factory, Mishra's Factory
If you stay on defense, you can block as 5/5 factory so I can't attack for value. But attacking leaves you open to trading resources and then falling behind. DD 2-2

Edit: You can't beat my threat, but you can Port Ancient Spring so I can never Miracle cast it. LL 0-6

We are missing Reeplcheep's (legal) submission of Bazaar, Rootwalla, Rootwalla, Vengevine
That was a fun target deck to start with.

Can you resolve your 4/4? I hadn't thought of the possibility of using Bazaar on upkeep, but as you mention the miracle trigger is too slow. I think you're 1-4 depending on whether Wrath of Pie has time to resolve the second Dockhand.
Factory only blocks as a 5/5 (or two 3/3's), but 5/5 is still big enough to hold you off.
It would be interesting to start with the Vengevine deck again since this time it would be a very high floor deck!

Oh yeah. I didn't expect the Bazaar draw, and it's still not relevant, but somehow it confused me. I think this means that Wrath of Pie overtakes you as third place. And I already had 3 decks in my gauntlet against a year's worth of factories.
Oh, so it's really turn 4.

A fun synergy that's totally useless in practice. It seemed like a nice entry for a voting round.

These goblins don't interact with what I'm doing and I can block. 6-0

At first I thought you could reanimate Emrakul, but if you can't then I can definitely block and eventually get there. 6-0

Eldrazi are scary. 0-6

You can't really punch through the wall so you eventually die. 6-0
Wrath of Pie: Island, Rishadan Dockhand, Rishadan Dockhand, Rishadan Dockhand, comment: Sadly, I can't submit Elspeths
I don't resolve plague drone until turn three, but I resolve wall on turn 2. This means you can't quite get enough creatures in play to actually kill me (even on the play) before you are forced to tap my land every turn. 2-2
20 points
Wrath of Pie coming in at 15 points, one ahead of dte (who would have won the tiebreaker), wins the honour of being the first floor deck.
This means a very minimal banlist:
Rishadan Dockhand is banned.
