Competitive EDH 1kYS/Flash Rector (EDH / Commander)

A spicy, spiky EDH deck built around Rectors and Thousand Year Storm. Thousand Year Storm (1kYS) is a sweet enchantment that can be used to do some completely broken things. However, 1kYS is a very expensive spell, and we want to go off on the turn we play it so we cheat it into play with Academy Rector or Show and Tell. We can use Flash to play Academy Rector at instant speed and have it sacrificed. This can fetch 1kYS at instant speed. Because we are already playing Academy Rector, we play some other powerful enchantments such as Omniscience and Humility. Because we play Flash, we are also playing Arena Rector. Flashing in Arena Rector lets us get Nicol Bolas, God Pharoah to grind out opponents; Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker to deal with troublesome permanents; or Ugin, the Spirit Dragon to wipe the board clean. We have all the usual storm spells to get us going (they get extremely busted with 1kYS) plus we also have Bonus Round which provides a similar effect to 1kYS. Because we are playing storm, we have included the Dramatic Scepter combo as an additional wincon.

To actually win the game, we can assemble Dramatic Scepter to gain infinite mana which we then use win the game somehow. Alternatively, we can put a lightning bolt or a swan song on the scepter, alongside Paradox Engine to deal infinite damage or create infinite birds. Winning with thousand year storm is possible with lightning bolt, unsubstantiate/remand and a sufficient storm count. Once the storm count is high enough, we cast lightning bolt, make a bunch of copies and then return the original lightning bolt with unsubstantiate. We use the copies of unsubstantiate to return the original unsubstantiate to our hand also. We can usually get enough mana to do this with rituals or we can use dramatic scepter.
