This is a semi-competitive Voltron Build. First off, I should preface my deck tech with the fact that it was built for our commander league, which has a strict ban list (almost all fast mana rocks are banned, incl. Sol Ring). This makes for an interesting meta-game, where fast combo decks are taken down a notch, making room for other strategies.

Having said that, the deck is admittedly in a period of transition from semi-competitive to competitive. This is also the reason that I have begun to incorporate cards that play off of having blue players at the table. In a competitive setting, there is always at least one opponent whose deck is primarily blue. Hence, the blue hate, counter protection, etc.

Given that cEDH is overrun with fast combo / control, I have opted to build my Uril deck within a sort of resource denial shell. Since I generally play against "I win" decks, I seek to gradually gain the upper hand over my opponents and then go in for the kill one-by-one after I have delayed or dismantled my opponents' plans. The land destruction / artifact hate / graveyard hate play a large role in this strategy. Hatebears and stax effects fit particularly well into this approach.

The planeswalkers are also something that I'm trying out. They are all a source of card advantage, as they act as card-draw, removal, and win conditions if not dealt with. They are generally safer in cEDH as in casual, as there are fewer creatures to ping away at their loyalty.
