Do you think this would be a good deck, use pentad prism and lotus bloom to ramp and kill on turn 4. I don't know. I heard someone talking about how the effect doesn't work but I would like everyone's advice! Thank you!
Boza That may be true, but I can keep up counterspells and since it is on turn 4 there's not much an opponent can do.

Yes, but why do you need to keep counterspells in hand, instead of playing pact, which is also lighter on the mana, and not giving them a combat step, which counterspells do not work against? There is no rhyme or reason to use glorious end, except in the unlikely event you need to actually cast it to save yourself.

I mean it is strictly worse than bloomless amuletbloom.

Storm & infect win on T3 if they are not disrupted. (sometimes even on T2)
And to be frank there is a plenty of decks that could kill you before you go off on T4.
Not to mention, that ramp decks always have the "drawing the wrong half of the deck" kind of problem.

The problem is that they have a whole turn to kill you before they lose the game. It is objectively worse than say Pact of the Titan, since they only have 1 upkeep after that.
