EDH deck using only lands and cards with unique mana costs, ie, no other card in Magic has the same exact cost. The deck is pretty bad at ramping, drawing, and establishing solid board presence, but it's very entertaining and can actually win in a 4 or 5-way game if tokens fall into place and Karona can overrun them unimpeded.

I've opted not to include Phyrexian mana cards since they're actually easier to cast, and what's the fun in that? Few of the unique ones are really all that good anyway. I might change this one day, but probably not until more phy-mana cards get printed, whenever that might be. As for now, it's too much of a one-off gimmick.

Similar arguments could be made for the Beseech the Queen cycle and things like Slave of Bolas, but these are far more acceptable to me for whatever reason.
