...tempting wurm deck!

(When people have too much time on their hands, hilarity ensures.  I thought you guys might appreciate this product of my insanity.  If you're stupid enough to sleeve this up, it's 10 proxy friendly, but I'm telling you straight up it's aweful.)

First, the list, in MWS format 'cause manually copying decks into it sucks.



// Lands
    15  Forest

// Creatures
    4  Tempting Wurm
    4  Yavimaya Enchantress

// Spells
    1  Mox Jet
    4  Treetop Bracers
    4  Mythic Proportions
    4  Elephant Guide
    1  Mox Sapphire
    1  Mox Ruby
    1  Mox Pearl
    4  Ancestral Mask
    4  Gaea's Embrace
    4  Instill Energy
    1  Mox Emerald
    1  Mana Crypt
    1  Black Lotus
    4  Rancor

Basically, your plan A is play a tempting wurm, use him to drop a ridiculous number of enchantments (hopefully including instil energy), and attack.  If you have more than 3 enchantments the Enchantress is a better target than the wurm.  This can kill someone on the first turn, but expect mostly turn 3 with a fair amount of turn 4.

Your plan B is play an enchantress and feed her.  If things go well this can be a turn 4 kill, but it's more likely turn 5 or even 6.

Have fun.

I hate to spoil your fun, but:

When Tempting Wurm comes into play, each opponent may put any number of artifact, creature, enchantment, and/or land cards from his or her hand into play.

If it worked the way you thought it worked, tempting wurm would already have been broken, but not by playing a mythic proportions, but by enabling yawgmoths bargain and friends Wink

His plan was to use the tempting wurm to dump his own hand as well, illusionary mask doesn't help when you read cards wrong...

Can't you just use Eureka instead of Tempting Wurm?

Assuredly, you can try - but Eureka is harder to come across.  Wink
