I'm actually really looking forward to seeing what everyone has come up with.
When I go to Honolulu I have a feeling it's going to be like the fake fruit scene in The Interview. I'll get a glimpse of the nice, ready for presentation areas like the commentator booths and feature match areas before I go to the regular shitty seating with the other mediocre players.

Using 12 Grisly Salvages to mill over Kozilek's Return makes a lot of sense.

Interesting that the turns leading up to Emrakul can result in you using destruction spells on your own creatures, to give your opponent less options.

This is basically the all-in grisly salvage deck I tried to make with just SOI cards but the kozilek's return tech is pretty cool.
Kozilek is the best EDH general though
Love that Emrakul is immediately out there and making waves.
Still can't believe how useless Kozilek ended up being

Brad Nelson sacking Emrakul to pay emerge is the best thing I've seen today.

Now I'm really curious what the actual Bant Coco prevalence turns out to be.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's only 1 or 2 in the feature match area just to mask it a bit. But really, who knows just yet.

I've actually never played against a blue emrakul ramp deck. Could be that they went into blue specifically to have access to the card.
Also finally someone cast to the slaughter, that card is so good if you get delirium fast. Of course against decks that aren't too creature heavy.

The decks we're seeing so far are such a bizarre list. Temur Emerge? Jund Delirium? Blue/black Madness? Bant Eldrazi Rites? Wtf fam.
fake-edit: oh wow I didn't realize the Kozilek's Return immune to Spell Queller tech.
