Deck Description

Not sure what to call it, but the aim is to effectively lock myself in isolation using the Emperion until I can push for the Darksteel Reactor win condition, or save up the mana to drop a Platinum Emperion with multiple copies, using the Cloud Keys and Etherium Sculptors to cut the cost down. The Signets are there because 2 Lands and 2 Signets equals UUGG/UUBB/UUGB, while I don't use any other colours these combined with the Sculptors should allow for a faster mana pool growth.

The Stalemate is, in theory using Platinum Emperion and Darksteel Forge to keep my life total from changing, against Infect Decks or decks that use alternate win conditions this is not especially helpful and I know that I need some way of making at least 1 Platinum Emperion Hexproof/Shroud to counter Oblivion Ring and Revoke Existence as they bypass the Forge's protection.

The goal is to try and win on the Reactors, its why there is a few Proliferate cards, they might also help in that off chance I do get a few poison counters on my opponent

The Plague Myr are there for cheap mana addition, which is free if I get any 2 of the 8 Discount cards out, they might be useful with Infect but I only want them for the mana, earlier defence, and maybe I can hold one back and in the midgame I can drop it and clone it enough times to cause a major problem.

Suggestions, especially for the sideboard would be appreciated.
