How does this work ? First, you get an Apostle in the graveyard as quicly as possible. This is usually done by discarding one to hand size on your first turn, or by chump-blocking. You then exile all of the Apostles in your library using either Extirpate or Surgical Extraction (neat trick : you're allowed to keep the ones in your hand to chump-block and buy yourself a couple of turns). Finally, you play Shelldock Isle (which you can find using Spoils of the Vault) to cheat Emrakul into play.

Once your opponent has sided out all of their removal in game 2, you can surprise them with a manabase and demons out of your sideboard.

I'm still tinkering with the deck, so any idea/comment is greatly appreciated !
