Does an 11/11 infect trample really need unblockable?

Yes. Yes it does. ;)
I prefer ending the game quickly :)

I could, but honestly I like the disruption that comes with blue and 9 times out of 10 I pull two tron lands and an expedition map on the draw and if I don't I usually mulligan down to 4-5 till I do. Without rogues passage(haven't put it in and competed yet) this deck has been solid as hell. Platinum angel and apostle blessing help me against the Aggro, while the mana leaks help me against other things. My win con before rogue passage was overloading cyclonic rift t5 or t6 after I have Blightsteel out and still allowing 1 floating mana for apostles blessing in case they try to exile him. I understand the green would be great for the mana search but I feel like the disruption allows for me to stall long enough to get them out with the expedition maps ☺️

And there's nothing better than an opponents face after a t3 quicksilver amulet then pulling a blightsteel colossus on t4 :)

I'm thinking of takin platinum angel out and replacing with platinum Emperion due to Angels vulnerability to burn because of her low toughness

Any opinions on what to have other than palladium Myr? I feel as tho he's kind of a waste. Perhaps chromatic spheres?

1 {Eye of Ugin} is needed if you only run 4 big creatures.

Also {Solumn Simulacrum}

In this deck if he gets {U}{U}{U} he has basically already lost.

Pretty consistent actually, I let the new players run it at our LGS for FNM and it always makes top 8 and that's because it plays against infect, splinter, burn, and junk. With the right pilot it's great, and the Iona is simply a stall out with quicksilver. It takes just as long to pull her out of the deck as it would with Emmy, the other two beefy guys I can cheat out with treasure mages and quicksilver.

Edit: took out Iona added a one of martial coup

Triple white for iona isn't happening anytime soon.  And quicksilver is just another piece to be able to win.

You're right, just took her out and added {martial coup} instead as a one of. Care to wall game your Tron vs my Tron?

I'm tempted to say 2 of my karn for the foil you have...

No no no, I like my foily. Also, when I said minor damage I meant played a lot. Lol I wouldn't want you to get mad if he was in worse condition than you expected so for the sake of everyone being friendly, I will have have to kindly refuse

But I do wanna wall game still lol
