I'm Terrible - In A Unique Way

So, I tried to devise an idea for an alternate, I guess, 'kitchen table' format.
Thing is, I figured out a way to win Turn 1 within 30 minutes of testing.
Now I don't know whether to be disappointed (that I'm terrible at design) or proud (that I designed a turn 1 win to a new format 30 minutes into its inception.)

Most formats that are made badly or overpowered have them and, like Daveslab2022, consistency matters a lot xD
Congrats ig?

Well, basically it's a variant of Vintage that only allows creatures with other rules. (And lands of course).
The premise of the turn 1 win required that your deck was stacked.
Basically, the deck was Gruul. You play some of the cards like Heritage Druid and Nettle Sentinel to get stupid mana, make Yisan, the Wanderer Bard, give him haste, start spitting stuff out, get Vizier of the Menagerie so you can play creatures of the top, play some more mana stuff like Nyxbloom Ancient, and end with like 4 Craterhoof Behemoths and swing for gg.

So you found out vintage elves could win on turn 1?
I mean the deck is super cool xD

Just depends on what the format is. If it’s a vintage variant, then it’s not impressive at all. If it’s a standard variant, you should pat yourself on the back, considering nobody else has figured out the turn 1 win.
It also matters how consistent the deck is. If it absolutely requires several pieces to work, it’s not going to be consistently winning on turn 1.
