I agree with you that this combo is pretty unlikely to see any (successful) tournament play, but I do have to take slight issue with your statement that combo decks never rely on creatures. Combo Elves won a Pro-Tour pretty recently...

I'm sorry combo decks that can win on turn 2 are allowed to use creatures.

Heights+Procession is used in tight aggressive decks to get free card advantage/pour on more pressure through the cheating of various Anthem effects/Ajani Goldmane/Overrun (in the G/W lists).

This necessitates you having a very tight, aggressive LIST.

If you're diluting your deck with a bunch of combo pieces just so you can MAYBE put Emrakul under Windbrisk Heights and THEN try to swing with 3 Spectral tokens I would like to tell you that you're doing it wrong. You'll be spending all that time trying to set up the combo while all the Jund, Naya, and better tokens lists are going to run you right over. 

Then there's the issue of actually maintaining three creatures on the board. As soon as Windbrisk Heights comes down, people typically make it priority uno to keep you off three creatures.

It all seems very cute in theory, and I'm sure it's a fun deck to goldfish with, but when you're forced to Heights and you see Ponder, land, land, Preordain instead of Goldmane/Overrun, land land you're going to cry

This. Quite simply, this deck is too slow and too many if statements. Your deck is fine for casual play but I seriously doubt ill be scared of heights flipping over emarkul.

P.S. Bughferd you play LoL?


Yes quiet a lot actually.
