Teferi, Temporal Archmage where he belongs: in the middle of a pile of planeswalkers, artifacts and mass removal. The basic goal of this deck is to get to six mana as fast as possible, cast Teferi and watch the magic happen. The commander is the engine around which this deck runs, generating huge card advantage every turn he's on the table. His -1 in particular enables some degenerate turns. And since he's a planeswalker, if you ever get to use his ultimate you win.

If Teferi is the engine, the mana rocks are fuel. With 11 in the deck, of which 9 can tap for multiple mana, it's quite probable to have 10 or more mana as early as turn 4.

Once the deck has made an absurd amount of mana, you resolve an "Oh" card (so named for the reaction from the table) like Ugin, Karn, Jin-Gitaxias, Memnarch, or my personal favorite Ulamog. If you can do this early enough in the game, sometimes it's just over (and you get a new challenge when everyone gangs up on you game 2).

On those occasions when you don't have a leisurely stroll to giant monstrosity, the deck is just filled with ways to reset the table, some of them even available at instant speed. Perilous Vault, Cyclonic Rift, and Crush of Tentacles are a few standouts.

The deck also runs a number of roadblocks. Two walls, and a couple of enchantment locks (though most of the real toys are in the sideboard). Thopter Spy Network has been a standout, and Propaganda is always good.

Of course what would a Teferi deck be without some planeswalker friends? Tamiyo, Ugin, Karn, and three iterations of Jace all generate absurd card advantage, with Tezzeret being an absolute all-star with all the mana rocks as well as two tutorable boardwipes. With so many planeswalkers and especially with one in the command zone, Liliana's Veil is a natural inclusion. One that can lead to infinite planeswalker activations, sometimes with as few as three cards (Tezzeret Veil Vault).

Finally, a blue deck needs countermagic and card draw to be complete. Cryptic Command, Counterspell and a few more round out the first, while BSZ and SOG are all we need of the latter (since so much of the deck generates card advantage). One important note about countermagic: be stingy. The deck can deal with a huge range of terrifying boardstates but there are certain spells that it simply cannot beat. Save the counters for those spells, clean up the rest with a boardwipe. There are of course a few other spicy inclusions, but this is the gist of the deck.
