Notes
 
What if instead of trying to build an all in wheel combo deck, we built a deck around the fast mana we explored this summer? Focusing on utilizing the 2-3 T1 mana to try to end the game on the spot. Like what if the option was T1 Magus of the moon, crashing footfalls, or setting up for T2 or beyond living end? And the Living end could win the game on the spot hasted big threats, or game stiffling effects like ruric thar, sire of insanity, Ob Nixilis, dragonlord kolaghan, combustible gearhulk, griselbrand that also take over the game? We could use the wheels to proactively discard and draw, like a better faithless looting, and negate the downside of all In nature of these lines, Every fresh hand could offer to end the game anew. Just throw wild haymakers until one connects. We would have to perfect the electrodominace/suspend spell engine, but it could be just a brutally aggressive deck, similar to reanimator in legacy, that just keeps producing game ending effects. One sided free graveyard disruption needs to be built into any version of the combo that involves living end and wheels together, but these could be sided out into some creatureless matchups potentially. This makes this deck naturally good against graveyard decks I think. We even have access to thragtusk, obstinate baloth, and resolute archangel to basically cheat death, and also potentially bust griselbrand. We could also set it up in such a way where we invalidate certain lines of play all together like a prison deck, like the axis of creatures (living end/lifegain), control (ruric thar), big mana (magus of the moon), artifact combo (harsh mentor). There is basically a creature package along these lines that would any deck unplayable if they were in play early enough.
