Alright then. Submerged Boneyard, then I'll cast Extract from Darkness. I put Lightning Bolt and Cinder Barrens into my graveyard. Show me even more stuff!

I put Volcanic Geyser and Mountain in my graveyard.

rokapoke said he's on vacation and doesn't have his spreadsheet with him :rolleyes::p so he'll be able to post when he gets back and when he can this weekend.

Apparently I was going to draw lands... I place two Plains in my graveyard.
 

Oversoul

The Tentacled One
The Thragtusk. Such a noble beast. It would be a shame for it to languish forever in the darkness of Melkor's graveyard. So I shall extract it from that darkness.

And with that, I'm done.

Oh boy. Hold up, during upkeep, when the Mob's ability is on the stack, I'll respond by tapping out and casting Chandra's Outrage on it.
Responses to that?
Any changes to your turn?

Nah, I'll leave the rest the same. Probably just steal the Mob back out of Melkor's graveyard later. Like after I kill you.

Spidey uses the Pathmaker to make rokapoke's Responder unblockable.
rokapoke attacks Nicol Bolas with the Responder and uses the Anointer to pump him.
Spidey plays a Mt
rokapoke plays a Plains
Melkor casts Cultivate and reveals a Forest and Island and puts the Forest onto the battlefield (triggering the Expedition) and the Island in his hand. He then plays the Island, triggering the Expedition. He then removes the three quest ctrs from the Expedition and sacs it to draw 2 cards

Done

During Attackers, rokapoke will cast Vizier of Deferment (2/2; Human Cleric; Flash. When ~ enters the battlefield, you may exile target creature if it attacked or blocked this turn. Return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.). Responses?
