This deck is mostly for my records, but I also think it's worth sharing. It's mostly a combo control deck that features a few infinite combos in order to close out the game. The combo of note is:

Mana Vault + The Chain Veil or basically a combination of 3 permanents that tap for 5 mana or more. An important note regarding The Chain Veil is that it alters the game state, retroactively providing new planeswalker objects ALL of the previous activations of The Chain Veil when they resolve. By manipulating this very important rules variation, you can stack infinite planeswalker activations on your dudes (by whittling Teferi down in loyalty until he dies and then recasting him) and create infinite mana and draw your deck with Teferi alone. 'Tis a 1 card combo with Teferi and any combination of mana sources, and is the reason that I run Teferi as my General. The link for the rulings on how this works is found here: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=383412. The important rulings of note are the second note and the last one, allowing Teferi (as your commander) to be treated as a new planeswalker object and retroactively gaining all previous activations of The Chain Veil.

The rest of it is control, stax pieces, and card advantage, straight up.

God-Hand Permutations (Win on T1 through disruption): Island + Grim Monolith + Mana Crypt + Mana Vault + Mox Opal + The Chain Veil + Pact of Negation

This deck is also part of my Star Gauntlet. The alternate general for the deck is Memnarch or Oona, Queen of the Fae.
