Unesh, Criosphinx Sovereign is more than just a gimmick tribal commander; he has every tool he needs to enable an unstoppable snowball effect of powerful evasive beaters, countermagic and time warp effects.

Note: Resolving Omniscience WILL win the game like 99% of the time; Unesh combined with this stupid enchantment lets you sift through your entire deck and cast all the spells you find for free; and, if those spells are sphinxes, you just keep going until you hit a Time Warp, cast it for free and then next turn swing out for game...or else just play another Time Warp effect and do it again.

C A U T I O N: Assuming you don't have Reliquary Tower or Thought Vessel in play, discarding to hand size while both Eligeth, Crossroads Augur and Curator of Mysteries are in play will result in an infinite (and mandatory) card draw loop. Discarding to hand size triggers the scry ability on Curator, which Eligeth turns into a draw. Then, of course, you'll need to discard back down to hand size, beginning the loop again. Unless you have Ormos, Archive Keeper in play, or perform some fancy bullshit with Nexus of Fate's reshuffling effect, THIS WILL KILL YOU.
