Obeka No Turn (EDH / Commander) [Revisión 3]

Obeka No Turn, aka Hipster Obeka
End your turn before it's cool!

This is an Obeka deck designed to end your turn in your upkeep.

Most Obeka players seek to end their turn in response to annoying end step triggers (or, occasionally, after playing something like Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger). This deck takes a different approach! Instead, end your turn before it's even really begun!

Most of this deck is built around upkeep triggers. During your upkeep, you can stack the triggers such that any you want to take effect do, and then end the turn to skip everything else. This makes a lot of staxxy cards like Smokestack particularly brutal!

But, you might ask, if we never take a draw step or a main phase, how do we draw cards? Or play lands? Or do... anything?

Before you can start skipping turns like a champ, you do need some setup. Firstly, you do need a few lands or mana rocks, though Walking Atlas can help you out. Secondly, you need a source of draw. A card like Mystic Remora becomes particularly ridiculous when you never have to pay its cumulative upkeep, and Psychic Vortex is an Obeka staple. Finally, flash! Leyline of Anticipation and Vedalken Orrery mean you can play all your boring-speed permanents on other people's turns.

By the nature of the cards that work for this strategy, the deck is necessarily quite staxxy, with negative upkeep triggers that we can skip but others can't (unless they run Eon Hub, anyway...). We just sit and wait for them to be eroded by effects like Bottomless Pit and Smokestack. But, how does this deck actually win? Well, if you succeed in making everyone sac and discard every single thing they have, you can actually win just by sitting there and waiting for them to deck out, since you don't actually need to draw any cards yourself (you can skip that too!). If you want a non-lame way to do it, though, you can probably build a big enough board state that you can stop skipping turns to hit people to death. Or, consider Molten Vortex. It's not like you were playing those lands anyway!
