A deck that actually casts Progenitus and attacks people to death with it.

Protection from everything means unblockable, prevent all damage, shroud, cannot be enchanted, cannot be equipped. So only things like global effects, +1/+1 counters (without targeting), and similar can pump Progenitus.

Mirari's Wake is mvp, casts Progenitus with only 5 lands, +1/+1 for Progenitus. This is very good because Progenitus normally needs 3 hits to kill with commander damage (10 + 10 + 10 = 30 > 21), but at 11 power only needs 2 (11 + 11 = 22 > 21).

Deck strategy is to defend/politics while ramping to Progenitus, hopefully casting some pump effects like Bastion Protector along the way. Then drop Progenitus and attack in ideally 2 swings. Only need to pump by +1/+1 to kill in 2 swings but need to give +11/+11 to kill in 1 swing, so usually not worth it to try and go for the one-hit kill. If voltron plan fails the deck can be an okay goodstuff deck.

My playgroup plays with 15 card sideboards. Half the cards here are to make the deck more "all-in" on the Progenitus aggro plan, and the other half are more specific defensive cards.
