Play a bunch of artifacts, draw a bunch of cards, sac them to kark clan ironworks making a bunch of generic mana, bring out the open the vaults if needed, then cast big papa Emmy.

Basically. The only difference is the lack of mox opals and switched the remands for probes.

I don't think this counts as eggs.  Eggs takes really long turns with lots of sacking and bringing it bck.  This is karakemmy.
Yep. This isn't eggs. It doesn't have the fetches, the {Rapeshot}, any of it really. It's artiramp.

A 5 minute turn is not eggs.  A 20 minute turn is eggs.
No, an eggs deck is when you sac a bunch of eggs in order to win.

This doesn't have any of the win cons. It's closer to Tron, given the Emmy and Tronland set.

Emrakul is a win condition. You don't need specific win conditions to win. It is farther from Tron because it doesn't abuse the Tron lands, but uses them for advantage b

Not as much as you'd think. Bc you sac a star to KCI and you get to keep 2 artifacts and draw then your turn still happens

But that still gives your opponent card advantage...And what happens when you don't have KCI?

Of course, I played it pre and post ban for a few months and still use it on Cockatrice occasionally.

Not the deck, the cards. this uses eggs. The eggs are things like Chromatic Sphere and Star that follow the same idea of the old extended deck that use cards like Darkwater Egg to filter mana and draw cards.

There is usually enough card draw to find KCI.
