I accidentally removed 2 cards from the list and can't figure out which they were so I added replacements, if anything looks like "why aren't you running this obvious card" please tell me :(

Lands are subject to change.

cEDH Iroh Grand Lotus

Win Cons: Basalt Monolith + Mesmeric Orb into Blasting Station + Narcomoeba . Similarly to the OG Legacy Four Horseman deck, you put Narcomoeba into play, sac them to the Blasting Station you bring back from grave, but unlike the original Legacy deck list this does not play Sharuum the Hegemon and Dread Return so you do not need additional "luck" in performing your combo. Even though MTG rules define it as a non-deterministic game state with the self-mill, so long as you have Iroh, Grand Lotus in play, you have enough mana to cast your returning artifact card to hand/battlefield and Blasting Station not exiled, you guarantee that you will hit the combo 100% of the time. It should be fast enough to not get docked for slow play if you are being told to play it out. Because you can, in response to any counterspell, self-mill to grab counterspells there should be no feasible way to lose once you meet the requirements to have infinite self-mill and have the mana to return blasting station to play.

Basalt Monolith + Mesmeric Orb into Thassa's Oracle (requires you to have drawn or had exiled your Kozilek, Butcher of Truth) this is your backup wincon. It's risky because opponents can force you to draw at instant speed, losing you the game. This is backup ONLY for that reason. Alternatively, swap Thassa's Oracle for Riftsweeper or Burning Wish or something to return your main combo from exile.

Use Iroh, Grand Lotus to cast your return from graveyard cards to grab wincons.

Infinite Mana: Lion's Eye Diamond + Underworld Breach for infinite mana of any color + infinite storm or Grim Monolith + Power Artifact for infinite colorless mana or Basalt Monolith + Power Artifact for infinite colorless mana or Basalt Monolith + Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy for infinite colorless mana Dramatic Reversal + Isochron Scepter with any mana rocks in play that total 2 or more mana for infinite mana of the colors your mana rocks will tap for.

Infinite Turns: Isochron Scepter + Narset's Reversal + extra turn card.

Opponents have no hand: Narset, Parter of Veils + Teferi's Puzzle Box

Your Misc Value Pieces don't win you the game, but they're there if you don't have other pieces you need/want. Iso Scept + Narset's Reversal with extra turns to confirm you eventually hit your infinite combo. Underworld Breach to ensure you can get stuff out of grave if you don't have Iroh, Grand Lotus for whatever reason. Bonus Round, Dramatic Reversal, Teach by Example, and Narset's Reversal are all just good too.

You can replace more parts of the deck with more mana or counterspells or tutors if you want, but that's to taste.

You always Gifts Ungiven/Intution a pile that confirms you will return the good card you want out of the grave with the other cards.
