A Colorful Doomsday

Commander / EDH

This is a copied deck made by "Glix" on MTG Salvation.

You want to use tutors to find the fastest win you can get out of a given hand, but it may not always be obvious what that win should be. More often than not, if your opponents aren't interfering with it, getting Flash and Academy Rector into your hand is the fastest way to go about it, but remember that every hand is a different case and keep your mind open when playing this.

Over in a Flash.The principle way you win is Rector-Flash into Omni into Conflux. Conflux then gets you any number of things, but the easiest kill is Silence , Regrowth, Izzet Charm , Laboratory Maniac, Tainted Pact. You can then Silence , counter back with Izzet Charm , if that's countered, Regrowth Conflux, and find more counters and Eternal Witness and whatever else. Then you can Maniac, Tainted Pact your library away, and Izzet Charm to draw, or Regrowth+ Charm, or use some draw you got with Conflux, depending on if Silence got off. Eternal Witness and Cryptic Command also combine to draw your deck if you can get both of those into your hand.

You also have Maniac and Demonic Consultation or Tainted Pact that win the game with it, so if you have an opener with a fast Maniac, you can just run him out and Consult on your upkeep for the game.

The instant speed win is, depending on whats in your hand, and with Omni in play, find Eternal Witness and get it into your graveyard, nercomancy it, Cryptic Command Necromancy, replay Necromancy on Witness returning Command, and repeat this, choosing draw as the 2nd mode until you've drawn your deck, or your deck minus a few cards, depending on whats available. Then you have to get Laboratory Maniac into your yard, then you switch Necromancy to Maniac and cast a draw spell for the game. If this is off a Necropotence, youll need to either bounce Necropotence before using a looting card to get Witness into the grave, or you can use Flash, or you can topdeck tutor or Brainstorm it and Thought Scour yourself. Remember that Necropotence triggers at your end step, and you can cast spells before discarding, which is a principle way you can win the game post Omniscience.

Sometimes you have to get a little creative...If Maniac is not an option, such as having been exiled by some effect, or if you have to Tainted Pact past it, or pitch it to Force of Will or Misdirection, you still can win the game using the secondary Omniscience kill. You may have already guessed how it works. With Omniscience out, our goal is to essentially find Sphinx and cast it, with a draw seven in hand, and playing as many permanents as you can while doing this. Conflux does this directly, or you may use cantrips to use your deck as an engine. This also works without Sphinx, but Sphinx makes it more reliable. Using Consultation and Pact, you want to exile useless sections of your deck, draw as many cards as possible, and Silence as soon as possible. Then you Timetwister, which will draw you 49 cards if you have sphinx, or only 7 without. In either case, you then use your deck to find Regrowth, again playing as much as you can, which lets you Regrowth Twister. Once you get your deck down to 50 cards and sphinx in play, you can then just directly loop Twister and Regrowth, playing anything else you want in the process. What you want to do then is Cryptic Command every permanent they have. Next, each loop you cast Nihil Spellbomb, Thought Scour an opponent, then exile those cards. You then continue to repeat this process until youve exiled each opponents deck, and then Timetwister will kill them.

                                           
Doomsday

Doomsday can be tricky to work with if youre not used to it. Here are some piles that come up more frequently to give you an idea of how to use it.

It may not be the end of the world,but it's definitely the end of the game.Doomsday with any Draw 2.

Gitaxian Probe

Thought Scour

Timetwister/Yawgmoth's Will

Laboratory Maniac

Reanimate

Doomsday , cast your draw two (Gush is the best, since its free), drawing probe and scour, scour yourself, cast Reanimate on Maniac, Gitaxian Probe to win.

                                      
Doomsday
 with Sensei's Divining Top

Gush

Thought Scour

Any other card

Laboratory Maniac

Reanimate

Doomsday , tap Top to draw Gush, cast Gush for free, draw top and scour, scour yourself, reanimate Maniac, cast top, activate top to win.

You can try to make your own piles with Doomsday and Thought Scour or Doomsday and Brainstorm, as they are similar.

You can also use Doomsday to set up Omniscience, by getting Rector/Flash with Omniscience and Maniac and some draw spell in the deck, in some circumstances. Doomsday can also be lethal with Necropotence and the right cards in hand, allowing you to win on your end step. Really, the possibilities with Doomsday are so numerous and varied its hard if not impossible to explain them all here, but this should give you a rough working idea of how Doomsday allows you to win.
