Really no mystery here. Get Jhoira of the Ghitu out and then start suspending high cost cards. Many ways to remove Time counters are present, and I've included a lot of wipes in this deck to essentially start the game over with cards in suspension ready to hit an empty battlefield. Ideally I try to wait till turn 5 to cast my Commander and immediately get a card into suspension. But if the field is weak I'll wait and build defense. Once cards are suspended opponents either start bracing for them or start hitting me. Indestructibles work well as they'll survive the numerous board wipes that are usually on the nature of Mutual Destruction.

Eternal Dominion can be a game winner, especially if I manage to copy it on the stack.

Dragonstorm has the potential to swing the game heavily in my favor and I am thinking of adding a couple more dragons for that reason.

I have yet to build out the land base and not sure how far I'll go with it when I'm ready. With several Land Destructions in my deck I'm not sure it's really needed at this point. I have 2 Eldrazi's (Kozi and Emrakul) I could add in and probably will. Mind's Desire can also be added.

Deck is still being tweaked, advise is appreciated.

Head to head against Golgari

Anyways, I managed to scrape by with a win this time. Nothing happening until turn 5, cast my commander and exile Aeon Chronicler on my opponent's turn when he goes to kill Jhoira off, 4 extra card draws is nice. Turn 5 I drop Mindwrack Liege and pass turn. Now my opponent brings out Elvish Piper, so in the next turn or two I'll be looking at either Sheoldred, Whispering One or It That Betrays. Next turn I use Liege's ability and bring out Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius and immediately kill off the Piper. Next turn my opponent brings it back with Animate Dead but I'm sitting with Dack's Duplicate in hand. Next turn using Liege I bring out Djinn of Wishes and pass turn with 4 lands untapped. He tutor's Sheoldred and taps his piper to put her onto the battlefield and goes to end-step, I activate my Liege's ability and put Dack's Duplicate onto the battlefield copying Sheoldred. Now for the next 3-4 turns we just stall, sac'ing a creature and bringing one back. He brings out Ob Nixilis, Unshackled and Creakwood Liege and I add Darksteel Myr and Darksteel Gargoyle. This is our second game, and we're tired....so we both commit two huge mis-plays. He plays a spell to kill off one of my creatures, and chooses Niv forgetting about my Duplicate. Next turn I cast Lightning Greaves and put it on my Duplicate (Sheoldred). Next up he puts Reaper from the Abyss onto the battlefield and passes. I get Stormsurge Kraken out so I'm fairly safe with 2 Indestructibles and 2 that can't be targeted. Now, you may be wondering why my Sheoldred has not murdered him by now, since he's black and runs swamps. He also runs Maze of Ith. So, now for my mis-play. I haven't been able to kill his Sheoldred with Niv because I only have 5 red mana...everything else is blue or colorless (11 total mana to use) but my turn comes around and I hard cast Temporal Trespass and immediately copy it with Increasing Vengeance. 1st extra turn, I draw Destructive Force and ping both Sheoldred and the Reaper for 1 damage each with Niv and then cast Destructive Force. Killed them right? Nope! I forgot about his damn Leige out there giving them an additional +1/+1 and I lost my Kraken. Extra turn 2: I draw into Knowledge Exploitation and play it casting out of his deck All is Dust. My Darksteels survive but he's still over 20 life and I'm at 8. After a few more turns I kill him off with an army of 4 Chronozoa using Buyback on Clockspinning and Bearer of the Heavens acting as defense.
