I noticed burn doesn't have a place in cEDH and sought to try and make a deck viable. It took a single game off Golos turbo nas/kess in a three person playgroup, but was close each time, losing one game to a clear misplay. The idea is to only keep a hand that be dumped immediately, keeping pressure on everyone while turning off Consultation and Breach-style lines, using Stax pieces. Kiki-jiki/Snoop lines proved so easily countered and so obviously telegraphed, that I cut the infinite-combo kill for steady, reliable damage as I found myself just losing a turn or even 2 on failure. A more Stax heavy build provided very little pressure, and was simply removed by opponents whenever they were ready to go off.
