the if’s are just the three choices they can make and the demonstration that each one leads to a hulk trigger. One of them – the third – is the most situational (and I’d say the only correct choice for your opponent) that needs some board state to operate on. And that board state is nothing unusual – have your commander out and in a green deck, have one mana dork. Or any creature that dies to one -1/-1 counter. And all the pieces actually make sense, as you can win by assembling them manually, too. So yeah, it is actually a working thing, if you ignore the 7 CMC big-ass-complicated-mana sorcery you need to go off 😉

Edit: don’t put Pattern on opponents creatures though, please 😉 (I am dumb, reading the card explains the card)

Can we assume some board state? Because if we can assume a mana dork, this could work with [[Volrath, the shapestealer]] as commander and him out in the field during pre-combat main phase.

Your pile is [[Pattern of Rebirth]], [[Viscera Seer]] and [[Protean Hulk]].

• If they give you the seer and the hulk, they straight up lose to your hulk pile, as you just sac Hulk to your Seer.
• If they give you Seer and Rebirth, you put the Rebirth on your mana dork, sac it to your seer and grab hulk, sac that to your seer and win.
• If they give you Hulk and Rebirth, you put the Rebirth on your mana dork, go to combat and put a -1/-1 on your mana dork to get Seer into play and sac the Hulk to your Seer and again win.

Hulk pile is [[Spellseeker]], [[Thassa’s Oracle]] and [[Blood Pet]]. Seeker grabs your [[Demonic Consultation]] which you cast with the black mana from blood pet with the Oracle ETB trigger on the stack.

Yeah, sultai rector-less pattern rector for the win. If I’ve ever come up with jank, this is it 😉

yeah, that’s why I think freed from the real and intruder alarm are best for this.
