My inspiration was simply the greatest commander in the format: Taniwha.

Ramp up to 5, play Taniwha and screw around with effects like Donate for several turns and use a few of the draw effects on other cards to collect the following combo pieces: Eon Hub, Mind Over Matter, and Sands of Time. Those 3 cards will stop Untap AND Upkeep steps from happening, as well as letting you discard cards to repeatedly untap your champ, Taniwha. Just lock down the board and ride the big green snake to victory.
