Chino90 I appreciate you checking out the list and providing some feedback.

• Doomsday won't be used because of legality reasons, but just to illustrate the whole in that, it doesn't provide the goyf with Trample.

• Valentin, Dean of the Vein  ^Flip exiles your opponents stuff. Not your own, so while full of utility and providing a body in response, it doesn't start my game plan on the right foot.

• Leyline of the Void is efficient if you can self mill fast enough, but that creates a list built to combo and prioritize the exiling/milling in the deck. If that's the case, we miss the fundamental goal of the deck- to swing out with a Trample gifted Cosmogoyf. I have some dialogue detailing this in the deck description.

Lastly I wanted to express gratitude for your recommendation and thank you for stopping by. I look forward to seeing you on other lists in the future.

Not legal, but Doomsday would be great. T2 cosmogoyf, T3 Doomsday --> 55/55 goyf.

Another idea: Valentin, Dean of the Vein  ^Flip. Anything that exiles GY or creatures, really.

Or self mill with Leyline of the Void

I have Goblin Cannon also with infinite mana for another win condition. The commander ban list doesn't include The One RingGC that I know of. I normally build a lot of stax pieces but decided for faster win conditions with the commander. I was considering Lake of the Dead and probably Exsanguinate. Buried Ruin won't help much because most of my artifacts are just mana rocks to ramp out the commander faster. The idea is to get Doomsday quickly and just win off that if possible. I don't think Yawgmoth's Will fits here. I'm just trying to combo super fast. If I need a lot from my graveyard, I've probably lost already. I decided to avoid Imp's Mischief also because I'm just going for speed without much defense. The amount of tutors is vital to get exactly the cards I need to go faster. I want to optimize my ramp and make my win condition as fast as possible without using creatures like K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth.

A couple of years ago, I used to run a commander deck helmet by Osgir, the Reconstructor. It featured a combo loop using Mirror of Fate + Ugin's Nexus to do a kind of Doomsday pile turns loop.

I can copy/paste the combo loop description if you're interested. Not sure if that's what you might be looking for.

Nov 1 Kaervek the Merciless, Vampires & Doomsday Demons (0-3) won with the Worldgorger Dragon combo with Dance of the Dead and Jagged Barrens. Some controversy as Josh tapped out on his turn then realized a couple turns later that he could have used one less land with his Sapphire Medallion in play and disrupted my combo with the March of Swirling Mist he had in hand.

The main lines for the deck seem to be to either keep the Doomsday tech in or go with Underworld Breach and a package that supports it. Cards I'm looking at include:

Brain Freeze to combo with Underworld Breach and Lion's Eye Diamond, plus Wheel of Fortune etc.

Sevinne's Reclamation since it allows Intuition to directly tutor the previous combo in regardless of choice with Sevinne's, Underworld Breach and Lion's Eye Diamond.

Final Fortune seems really powerful.

Opposition Agent and Dauthi Voidwalker stronk.

Draw dorks: Ledger Shredder, Faerie Mastermind, Esper Sentinel, also Lotho, Corrupt Shirriff.

For more protection, Ranger-Captain of Eos and Orcish Bowmasters

Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer seems meh unless in your opener.

Smothering Tithe cool, but 4 mana.

An Offer You Can't Refuse, Strix Serenade, Minor Misstep, Mindbreak Trap, Dress Down

Hi Rocketman! I think you only saw my last comment which was an edit of the actual comment before it. :)

I had the chance to playtest the changes a bit and I found that Infernal Sovereign can help us play Final Fortune within a Doomsday pile when we drew all the cards because we will skip our draw step during the extra turn. :)

A couple of options are available to you here.

First, Cruel Bargain and Infernal Contract both help you lose life and draw cards. While not as effective as Peer into the Abyss, peer has a tendency to deck players. Just a thought.

Likewise, Death Wish is a great tutor for a silver bullet which also reduces the cost of the tutor target. Very useful.

Doomsday is kinda outside of what you're doing but could be an option. Usually people play doomsday in a combo deck as a final way to assemble the pieces. Your deck seems to be more of a value deck, which is more fun and interactive, so it's probably not a fit.

Best of wishes, great brew!!
