    So you are looking at the proud owner of a foil Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur. I went to a prerelease yesterday for NPH (Went 2-2, opened a garbage pool with a Koth in it. Koth doesn't just automatically mean you win, keep in mind. I had to put 2 of the 5/4 trampler for 4GPGP in, and I was blue/red. It was just that bad.), and in the prize pool, one of my friends cracked a foil Jin-Gitaxias. I gave him a Wurmcoil Engine and a Chimeric Mass for it.

    He's easily my favorite of the cycle as far as an EDH deck goes. Ever since the spoiler first got leaked, I've been thinking of a deck to make for him. Here's what I came up with:

    -General-

    1 Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur

    2 Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
    3 Memnarch
    4 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
    5 Venser, Shaper Savant

    6 Consecrated Sphinx
    7 Blightsteel Colossus
    8 Draining Whelk

    12 Grand Architect
    13 Master Transmuter
    14 Mycosynth Golem
    15 Phyrexian Metalmorph
    16 Scarecrone
    17 Steel Hellkite
    18 Treasure Mage
    19 Trinket Mage
    20 Vedalken Archmage

    -Sorceries-
    21 All is Dust
    22 Bribery
    23 Fabricate

    31 Mana Drain
    32 Spin Into Myth

    -Enchantments-
    33 Future Sight
    34 Rhystic Study
    35 Treachery

    -Planeswalkers-
    36 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
    37 Tezzeret, the Seeker

    -Artifacts-
    38 Caged Sun
    39 Crucible of Worlds
    40 Darksteel Forge
    41 Dreamstone Hedron
    42 Everflowing Chalice
    43 Expedition Map
    44 Extraplanar Lens
    45 Gauntlet of Power
    46 Gilded Lotus
    47 Grim Monolith
    48 Lightning Greaves
    49 Mana Crypt
    50 Mana Vault
    51 Mindslaver
    52 Nevinnyral's Disk
    53 Oblivion Stone
    54 Pithing Needle
    55 Relic of Progenitus
    56 Sol Ring
    57 Sword of Feast and Famine
    58 Sword of Fire and Ice
    59 Sword of Light and Shadow
    60 Vedalken Orrery

    -Lands-
    61 Academy Ruins
    62 Ancient Tomb
    63 Darksteel Citadel
    64 Eye of Ugin
    65 Flooded Strand
    66 Maze of Ith
    67 Minamo, School at Water's Edge
    68 Miren, the Moaning Well
    69 Misty Rainforest
    70 Mouth of Ronom
    71 Mystifying Maze
    72 Phyrexia's Core
    73 Polluted Delta
    74 Reliquary Tower
    75 Seat of the Synod
    76 Scalding Tarn
    77 Scrying Sheets
    78 Strip Mine
    79 Temple of the False God
    80 Tolaria West
    81-100 Snow-Covered Island

    Gatherer links to the cards will come later.

    The overall goal of the deck is to set up any of your kill conditions. Jin is a great draw engine that forces your opponents to topdeck answers to him, while helping you set up your kill with either of your Eldrazi titans or Blightsteel Colossus.

    Disk/Forge is one of my favorite EDH combos and it makes its appearance here to help make sure the board stays clear of any opposition. Memnarch supports the combo by protecting Jin and your Eldrazi from impending doom.

    I initially had Planar Portal and Unwinding Clock in the deck (mostly because I own an Unwinding Clock; I literally own about 10 of these cards, snow basics included), but took the engine out because I felt the deck had enough gas in it that it could win without it.

    Let me know what you think! =)
