Imprint Reverse Polarity on the Scepter; put out Boon Reflection and Jinxed Idol. According to Gatherer, "you gain X life, where X is twice the damage dealt to you so far this turn by artifacts" with Reverse Polarity. Start your turn, take the two damage; tap the Scepter and gain four life in response; Boon Reflection activates and turns that four life to eight. Lose two, gain eight - you're ahead by six at every turn.

Reverse Polarity is going to be good against Scars.

I'd prefer Humble over Sorceress Queen in a situation like that, JMD. Keeps it mono-colored and it's one mana cheaper (compare Humble's  to Sorceress Queen's ). Only difference is Instant vs Creature...

Sorceress lets them keep the ability.

But humility will not shuffle Emrakul if it would be put into graveyard right?
