Approach of the Second Sun

Sorcery

If this spell was cast from your hand and you've cast another spell named Approach of the Second Sun this game, you win the game. Otherwise, put Approach of the Second Sun into its owner's library seventh from the top and you gain 7 life.

The text to put Approach of the Second Sun into it's owners library is part of the resolution of the spell, so if the spell is countered or otherwise fails to resolve it will not be applied and go to the appropriate zone (in this case the hand). Compare to a card like Nexus of Fate which is a replacement effect that applies when it tries to go to the graveyard, or Gaea's Blessing which is a triggered ability that triggers when it is put into the graveyard (though only from library, not from the stack). Nexus of Fate will shuffle in if it's countered by something like Counterspell.

Someone told me a first-of-the-game Approach of the Second Sun will put itself in the library from the stack even if I Remand it. This seems wrong to me because Approach never resolved, so how does it get to apply its text? Remand already told it to go somewhere else...these both appear to be replacement effects and I'm a little shakier on how this work as opposed to triggers and activated abilities but the person did not really explain why they believe Approach's text prevails and it seems to me like if Approach never resolves then it shouldn't get to apply its text (which would be a good thing in this case).

Necropotence & Ad Nauseam love high life totals! Stuff like Approach of the Second Sun & Test of Endurance are interesting too. Cheers!

@Profet93 Good suggests! I typically won't ever need a Labman effect as it is strictly built to consistently win only with Thassa's Oracle. It was part of the reason why I built the deck. Not as a "draw the deck wins" but draw the deck thoracle lol. Most slots are devoted to countermagic, ramp, or tutors and the like, so changing any of that for the moment deck is drawn via top combo will lessen my amount of free mana to drop and counterspells to cast. The old adage, "you can't counter everything" is null here haha. The goal is to draw, drop free mana, beat down with a stick (counterspells) anything and anyone that tries to stop me from casting thoracle, then win with thoracle. I definately need the Ancient Tomb and I'm saving my Narset's Reversal if and when I want to combo with something like Approach of the Second Sun.

I love this commander... are things like Crawlspace/Silent Arbiter necessary in a deck like this (in case of removal of the commander?) or maybe Lightning Greaves/Swiftfoot Boots? and would things like Gideon of the Trials and Approach of the Second Sun fit in a strategy like this?

My brother is building this deck and we've only played a few games with it so im curious what may have to say about it?

Assuming this is commander Starfield of Nyx is a possibility assuming you aren't running mostly auras. You could pair this with Heliod, Sun-Crowned or Nykthos Paragon as they both have the enchantment type as opposed to Archangel of Thune.

There is Approach of the Second Sun or Felidar Sovereign if you are okay with such cards.

Faith Healer + Aetherflux Reservoir which works as you are gaining life anyways.

Ajani's Chosen, Archon of Sun's Grace, and Sigil of the Empty Throne are pretty straight forward amass a board and swing.
