- Yes, this deck lives off of its consistency.
- There's nothing wrong with cutting a probe or two, but looking at your list I think running 3 Emrakul alongside 3 wishes will give too many clunky draws. You never want to see them together, so if you want to focus on EtI, you should cut 1 or 2 Emrakul.
- It depends a lot on what decks are in your meta and how much hate they're bringing. Anything from 7-10 can be justified. Pierce is a good choice atm due to miracles.
- I really don't like Personal Tutor. In a deck that relies heavily on card quantity, a card that doesn't replace itself should be avoided. It also gives the opponent very important info and a full turn to react to it, which also makes it a horrible top deck. If you DO choose to play it, don't cut probes and maybe find room for a top.
- I don't like Petal in the EtI version, but if you choose to focus more on Emrakul, you'll hit Show/Emrakul more often and being faster will have its advantages.
