The power idea is good.
Sort of why merfolk works.
A few fight spells might work.

Rubblebelt rioteers have an interesting viewpoint.

If x is broken, break x.
I'll use it for my dictatorship.
If the people are broken, break the people.

Goblin electromancer and skirk prospector seems like natural fits.

Funny, a lot of the kamigawa sets contain une, and mu in their deckname, as if the set designers are referring to mune-folk :)

Damn.
A Bowie reference...
The goblins in the labyrinth do have technology, including rockets.
My favourite, the tunnel killing machine.

Decks like this aren't always a jest.
In my play area there was one guy who kept working on something similar, and both piper and amulet can turn out to be a strong move.

1 copy of ominous parcel.
For the symbolic value.

The copy will have the same targets as the original, so it stops looping because the original gets countered by the copy.

Ah, budget, I keep missing that :)

Thematically "an offer you can't refuse" would fit right in.

Could be a meme then :)

I think it's the point to kill his own creatures in this one.

I saw that :)
It's a neat way of doing it.

1: you avoid the question in the future :)
2: you could tag it as explorer too without being too wrong.

I think explorer might be the cause of arjuna and cgb going their own ways.
They've announced that they are splitting up.

Still, you might want to track the explorer meta.
The speed at which decks evolves on arena is actually breathtaking, so pioneer will probably be invaded by arena builds.

The arena algorithm will pose a small problem as it's distribution of mana is much more friendly than real life mana, so there will be some sort of translation between the decktypes.

I'm pretty sure some big brains will try to crack that translation, and I'm very tempted to crack it myself, if it weren't for my usual longterm project.

I must admit the casting cost of it made me reel, but he did manage to cast it during games, though it might have been down to "the algorithm" on arena that he got it into play.

Judging from my own experience with mana I'd guess overwhelmed apprentice is helping you to get to 6 mana faster, so I can see it work in this build.

Heard of explorer, the format?

Dninja was working on something similar at some time.
The video he made on it showed me that dreadhound wasn't the worst thing to put in the brew.
Some wild cards can be quite the surprise.

For some reason I remember it as a graveyard deck.

Still, toluz only has 1 toughness.

"Clearly he must die"
(Random quote about deadpool)

Oldest reference I could dig up was: trainwreck 1.4 "this time it's personal" which was from 2006, so the original predates that year.

Mentions of the oldest variants puts it as a recursion deck, which may be why I "remembered" it as a decktype that filled your own graveyard, but it seems like a 6/6 was unstoppable back in that era if your lands were gone.

Staff of domination and cabal coffers must be how you dug up the single helldozer that the deck used back in those days.

I hope you didn't get too derailed by this :)

R&D has been known to throw stuff like this at us.
It gives of the impression that they have a largescale plan :)

Trainwreck was based on a zombie and somehow getting most of your library into the graveyard, so toluz could be an obvious hint towards a revival of that decktype.

The zombie was wrecker something, and the deck was likely named trainwreck because the graveyard was filled by a train of cards or something like it.

There's other hints in the conductor, like he's a conductor, he gets stuff into the grave and his name is pretty close to the words "to lose" you play him, saying "to lose" deeply annoying the opponent by comboing.

It's pretty much a recipe of annoyance.

If you can find the key to put it together.
What's in his hand ? Anyone got a magnifying glass ?

I once wrote a piece about how R&D hid cards for a donate / beeble deck in the art.

I think they might be hinting at something here as well.

Back from searching:
It seems my memory failed me on the naming.
The card involved in the original builds were helldozer.
I'm pretty sure that the decktype evolved into dead guy ale later.

It's hard to track down decks as old as these because of all of the distorting memes building up around them.

Anyways, [[helldozer]] is the key to the old deck, and it must be around a little older than 2008 versions of the deck.
