Apocalypse Now! (EDH / Commander) [Revision 28]

This is a Boros control deck, and it is designed to win in one of three capacities. The first win condition is Barren Glory, which is achieved in one of two fashions. The easier to protect of the routes is to have Oblivion Ring on Barren Glory, and cast Apocalypse. The more difficult route utilizes Bottled Cloister and Leave//Chance as a way to remove your hand from the game on your opponents upkeep, but this leaves you wholly shields down and if you fail to win, you are already so far behind that you have to start over with almost no win condition. The second way to win is utilizing Repercussion, which compliments the suite of damage dealing sweepers. Pyrohemia, Star of Extinction, Anger of the Gods, and Blasphemous Act are all the cards that benefit from this in the greatest capacity. The third way to win is utilizing Insurrection, which allows me to take a board state which is stacked against me and use it as a win condition.

Since I have to get to my win condition at a slower pace, I utilize cards like Blood Moon, War's Toll, Humility, Smoke, and other resource taxing enchantments in an effort to punish decks which try to get too far ahead early on. I also run a powerful pillowfort strategy with cards like Sphere of Safety, Peacekeeper, Powerstone Minefield, Lightmine Field, and other cards of that nature. These are designed to get me to the win conditions so that I can end the game on my terms.
