Win Conditions:
-Sometimes I'll bounce all your lands with Temporal Fissure.
-Sometimes you won't have an answer to Kozilek.
-Venser/Decree of Silence or Mindslaver/Academy Ruins locks happen.
-Multiple Doubling Cubes in one turn and kill everyone with draw spells.
-Future Sight/Top with lots of mana draws me cards until I storm something.
BUT!
The ultimate Win Condition:
Every other player ragequits because your turn takes half an hour.
I love this deck so much.
Changelog:
6/18/12
-Muddle the Mixture
-Storm Herd
+Mox Diamond
+Scroll Rack
Reasoning: Storm Herd is just a janky win-condition, and Muddle costs too much. Also, there aren't too many two-costs necessary to comboing off. I needed more 0-cost mana rocks, and Scroll Rack performed admirably well in testing.
7/2/12
-Darksteel Citadel
+Omniscience
Reasoning: 35 lands is fine. I always mulligan away a couple anyway, so I think I can afford to cut one. This was the least impressive.
Omniscience is... well, it's the best. It's everything this deck ever wanted.
Reasoning: Palinchron was underwhelming, and those were my least useful rocks. Better rocks and another copier are always good. I always had too much white and colorless mana, and Reliquary Tower was hardly ever relevant, so I cut some lands for the cyclers and Command Tower.
8/4/12
-Diminishing Returns
-Capsize
-High Tide
-Island
+Ghostly Prison
+Propaganda
+Muddle the Mixture
+Swords to Plowshares
Reasoning: I decided that I actually did need some protection in here, so I put in my favourites. Also, I put MtM back in because it's awesome and I was sad not to have it. I cut a land because I've often had too many.
Both of them are blink decks. Which is boring.
This is my Rasputin storm deck. And it kicks so much patootie.
