The Cheese Stands Alone
Enchantment
If you control no cards in play other than The Cheese Stands Alone and have no cards in your hand, you win the game.

I love Barren Glory because it mimics my all-time favorite Unglued card The Cheese Stands Alone. I have it as the Win-Con in my Super Friends build.
Vedalken Orrery would let you play that win directly before your turn.
Worldfire is another choice to add in exchange for Apocalypse.
Other options to help reduce CMC for the overall combo would be cards like Oblivion Ring, blowing up Barren Glory at a later time.
I personally think that going with the Barren Glory and Mindslaver are better with Blue splashed into the build. One, because Blue gives you more options to pop off Barren Glory on the opponents’ turn. And Mindslaver can go infinite with Academy Ruins on a single player.
A super cool Alt-Win you might consider would be Approach of the Second Sun.

I've always been a fan of Barren Glory/The Cheese Stands Alone decks. Absolutely love the idea and "dream" of this deck. Have my upvote!

Nice to see another The Cheese Stands Alone / Barren Glory deck out in the wild!
other combos I've seen run:
Barren Glory , Respond to it by casting Kaervek's Spite (works best if you have Vedalken Orrery so as to not leave yourself exposed)

And last of my picks is Barren Glory, just an amazing callback to The Cheese Stands Alone

A side comment: Silver-bordered "Un" sets are meant to play around with things that the regular game of MtG can't do, but sometimes a card or mechanic will inspire a designer to realize it actually can be done. The development of Host/Augment helping to inspire the development of Mutate is probably the #1 example. Single card examples like Super-Duper Death Ray -> Flame Spill and The Cheese Stands Alone -> Barren Glory also exist.
