Notes:
This is my first legacy deck and finally got all the cards together! I'm very excited for it. I'm new to the format and would like some help with my side board. Would love to hear about main board and any changes I should make! Thanks for looking!

Mclim

Congrats! I play a similar deck and for tha main board is more or less the same.

For sideboard, depending on the meta red elemental blast, blood moon for starters

 {Omniscience} and  {Enter the Infinite} would be sweet because you could cast your emrakul and get the extra turn to swing and win plus you could play another one on your second turn legend rule them out then cast a third one and get another turn And depending on how many  {Enter the Infinite} you put in the deck you can keep foing this process

You will never get to the point when u could play  {Omniscience} in Legacy format... You have mostly 5 turns in maximum...

That's why you cheat it into play with {Show and Tell}.

Oh why to use it for omni if I can put Spaghetti man to play?? I get partly the advantage... But it would be dead card in this deck... U do not need to complicate the way how to get bomb on board...

The difference is if you play  {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} using  {Show and Tell} you don't get the extra turn. If you play  {Omniscience} off your  {Show and Tell} you can play anything else in your hand for free...  {Griselbrand}, draw 7 cards, then Emmy, then whatever else you want to get the win.

I get the difference...;) thats the reason why he has there also  {Sneak Attack}...;)

The problem is that u would have to have 3 certain cards in hand to have it valueable... Mostly u will not have opportunity to play it that way... And that is the reason why omni is dead card... I would better to play emrakul with no extra turn than prey for a good constellation...;)

It's really nice to hear both of your thoughts. I have to side with white drake. Turn 5 in this format and the game is

Ejazz00

Over*. My friends can go off turn 1-2. And just nothing to do. I don't feel like I have room the main board for those cards. I can't waste my time with playing that.

Herp derp you show and tell on turn turn 2 with  {Lotus Petal} cast  {Omniscience}, cast  {Enter the Infinite} then cast  {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} get the extra turn kill them on turn 2 rather than you  {Show and Tell} into  {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} then on your opponents turn it gets  {Oblivion Ring}, or  {Karakas} then you lose

It's different strategies. I'd do it with  {Omniscience} cutting  {Sneak Attack} but that's why everyone can make their own decks!

That's exactly what am I talking about... U need 4 cards turn two to make it work... The possibility of that to happen is what? 1:100?

With every single turn ur chances are better but... If u need 4 cards from 7 to play this then opponent will easily stop u by force, Daze or another spell and u will not have possibly answer... And what then?

I mean there is a reason omnitell is a deck. There are a ton of people who play and have pne with  {Omniscience}
