This deck is designed for a Duel commander.There are two ways to play this deck:

"Offensive"

You can try to play Grand Arbiter Augustin IV as soon as possible to make almost all of your counters be like a Counterspell.

You can use Nevermore or Declaration of Naught to prevent the opponent to cast his commander.

To win you can make little attacks with Augustin or just attack with the "big" creatures like Drogskol Reaver, Guile , Isperia, Supreme Judge and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth.

Defensive

The defensive way is like the first except if the other player plays too fast you will not have time to cast Augustin so you play without him until you have enough mana and can be protected by all the walls.

Other cases:

Can't counter

If the other player have cards that don't let you counter his or her spells you can play on the defensive way, there are a lot of cards that protect you in this case:

AEtherize: if the opponents deck is too aggro you can slow him a bit.
Cryptic Command: You can tap or return permanents.
Mirror Match: For the big and unstoppable creatures.
Thoughtweft Gambit and Sleep: This may give you one more turn.
Ghost Quarter: I put it just in case of Cavern of Souls.

Kozilek

My decision to play Kozilek, Butcher of Truth is just to survive to mill decks.
