Someone turned the Breakfast Burrito into some sort of dadaist art piece making it 10x more moving parts and inefficient while having the dubious upside of letting it work in multiplayer(????)

Jesus christ. This is all of my favourite things. It reminds me of the deck I played in Tribal Apocalypse that was engineered specifically to unlock achievements, which had bounties of a few tix each in that tournament. I wound up winning more from achievements than whoever came in first place each week.

Play Assemble the Legion every chance you get.

That kind of growth can be a really odd thing in Magic. If your opponent can't set the pace of the game, they lose.

I came up with a Breakfast Burrito variant that kills the opponent by forcing them to concede or time out on MTGO. I'm hoping to get the kill package to something smaller than 5 cards in the mainboard, but so far this is what I've got.

4x Balustrade Spy
4x Elvish Spirit Guide
1x Eternal Witness
3x Narcomoeba
4x Simian Spirit Guide
1x Sun Titan
1x Worldgorger Dragon
1x Tinder Wall
4x Undercity Informer
1x Wild Cantor
4x Cabal Ritual
4x Dark Ritual
4x Manamorphose
4x Pact of Negation
1x Research//Development
4x Summoner's Pact
4x Chrome Mox
1x Grim Monolith
4x Lotus Petal
1x Animate Dead
2x Bridge from Below
2x Cabal Therapy
1x Dread Return

Sideboard
1x Day of the Dragons
1x Opalescence
1x Callous Oppressor
4x Chancellor of the Annex
4x Leyline of the Void
4x Leyline of Sanctity

Once you use Balustrade Spy or Undercity Informer to put your library into your graveyard, here are the steps to win:

1. Dread Return targeting Sun Titan. Sun Titan returns Animate Dead, enchanting Worldgorger Dragon

2. Worldgorger Dragon exiles everything else, then dies. Animate Dead and Sun Titan return to the battlefield. Animate Dead trigger goes on the stack targeting Worldgorger Dragon, then Sun Titan trigger goes on the stack targeting Lotus Petal. Lotus Petal makes mana, then Animate Dead returns the dragon. Repeat until you have 8WWUUUUG.

3. Sun Titan returns Eternal Witness to get Research. Let the Dragon loop happen one more time, so that...

4. Sun Titan returns an Undercity Informer. Cast Research to shuffle in Day of the Dragons, Opalescence, and Callous Oppressor, then use Undercity Informer to put them all in the graveyard.

5. Worldgorger loop twice for Witness to get the two enchantments, then Sun Titan returns Callous Oppressor.

6. Stop the dragon loop by putting Animate Dead on Undercity Informer, sacrifice Sun Titan, and then cast Opalescence and Day of the Dragons in that order. Hit F6. Your opponent now has to make an infinite number of choices for Callous Oppressor, and will either concede or time out.

I think you need a 7. Return Undercity Informer and sacrifice Sun Titan, otherwise you'll be making decisions each time through the loop too.

Oops, you're right, thank you. Edited.

New legacy brew, Battle of Wits Leovold! Surprisingly winning a lot of matches, it's 10-3 so far. It's not very all-in on the Battle of Wits, that's just there (along with Madcap Emperion) as an "I Win" button. It's mostly just BUG midrange valuetown. It's 228 cards, which is small for a Battle of Wits deck, but I wanted to maximize the density of good cards. I am still looking for suggestions for good high-value small creatures, especially green ones that I can find with Green Sun's Zenith. Here's the list:

Trygon Prime is a pet inclusion, right? I can't imagine it's the best four-drop available, but annoying people who don't like Universes Beyond is very cool.
