This is my Venser, Shaper Savant EDH deck. The aim of the deck is to control the game via counterspells and other answers such as Pongify and even Venser himself. Venser, Shaper Savant is particularly strong here because he is always available in the command zone and he can be bounced and reused multiple times by the likes of Crystal Shard and friends. Once control of the game is achieved, the game can be won via beats with Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre and Inkwell Leviathan or via a Academy Ruins + Mindslaver lock if there are only a few opponents left in the game.
