wow, this deck actually looks sweet.
ive never seen a r/w stoneforge deck before.
i would probably drop the figure of destiny and add a 4th chain lightning, also maybe drop lightning helix for 1 more mystic and 1 more lavamancer

guilded lotus, solemn simulacrum, and the myr package all seem like weak choices

you really should be playing duress or thoughtsieze or inquisition of kozilek to remove opponents disruption and removal.

the problem is that it cost 8 mana to do the combo in one turn, which is unlikely. so you need to make sure your opponent doesnt have an answer that turn you have to wait before you can activate the amulet

hymn to tourach can be very powerful disruption also


maybe try ancient tomb, or even city of traitors, or crystal vein to help ramp into quicksilver amulet

demonic tutor is the only banned card your using, if you wanted to make it legal you could try spoils of the vault .

i think what you should do is focus on controling the board and your oppoents hand untill you can combo

if i was trying to make a casual monoblack quicksilver amulet deck, it might look something like this:
-----
-combo
4 quicksilver amulet
4 emrakul

-card advantage/ search
4 phyrexian arena
1 spoils of the vault

-disruption
4 duress
4 inquisition of kozilek

-creature removal
3 damnation
4 innocent blood
4 wretched banquet

-mana ramp
4 dark ritual
3 lotus petal
1 chrome mox
-land
20 swamp

do any of you even play legacy? or have you played a show and tell or sneak show deck? because those decks are way better than this deck and are still beatable. the only way this deck is getting emrakul into play is with quicksilver amulet. with only 3 quicksilver amulet, 4 emrakul and no cantrips or tutors the chances of you actually being able to resolve a quiksilver amulet and play emrakul are slim.
in legacy, most decks play some sort of dispruption, trying to get this combo past force of will, daze, spell pierce. stifle, thoughtsieze, duress is probably not happening without any disruption or counter magic of your own.

in a casual setting im sure this deck is fine, but in competive legacy you would get destroyed. emrakul isnt as bad as you think, or else it would be banned. almost every deck has things they can do to stop this, maindeck, and if its not already maindeck theyre running things like diabolic edict, innocent blood, guilded drake, sower of temptation, jace the mind sculptor, oblivion ring, runed halo, ensnaring bridge, humility, in theyre sideboards

wow compulsive research is actually pretty cool. i liked when you had careful study in there though. the fact that it only costs (u) as opposed to (2)(u) seems pretty great.

the deck looks sweet though, some of those creatures i actually havent seen before, but seem pretty good.

emrakul really isnt that overpowered. he costs 15 mana.. so in order to play him competitively you have to cheat him in. and even then its still not overpowered. if it where, show and tell would be the only legacy deck that mattered. buut, its not. theres plenty of ways to deal with emrakul, from diabolic edict, to karakas, to just outright countering the combo piece thats cheating him into play

i just noticed how incredibly broken the estimated deck value thing is.. 4 force and 4 polluted delta is easily 400 bones by themselves. >_<' but the low says 321. noooooo waaaaaaay is that possible

hahahahaha, you play a competitive legacy deck against your friend's casual decks?

frantic search is the only banned card. switch it to brainstorm and your good to go.

root maze could be nice to shut off the land they get to play, maelstrom pulse is another peutrefy.

trinisphere is another good card to think about

Memory lapse has awesome art, I can't remember what set but honestly they all look pretty cool. Stunted growth is also one of my favorites! ^_^ but yeah I guess not all new art is bad, just most :p

I don't see the point in netdecking, what's the fun in using someone elses deck? And also I agree, standard is a joke, it's all about being flashy and not so much about clever strategy. And! The new art for magic looks terrible what happened to the old fantasy/ painting vibe? I dunno, iv been playing since grade 3, and new magic just doasnt do it for me. OH! Cool looking deck though! :p. Iv ALWAYS. Wanted to build a pox deck but just never got around to it. : /
