Deck overview

This is a no-banlist, five-color "goodstuff" deck helmed by Golos, Tireless Pilgrim, built around the most powerful cards ever printed. The primary plan is to deploy Golos early off absurd fast mana (Black Lotus, the five Moxen, Mana Crypt, Jeweled Lotus), then chain his activated ability with Paradox Engine to exile and cast the top of the library for free. The deck closes games through several interlocking lines: Time Vault + Paradox Engine for infinite turns, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn cast free off Golos for an extra turn and annihilator, and the instant-win Coalition Victory enabled by Leyline of the Guildpact. With 32 tutor points and a dense draw suite, the deck finds its pieces with surgical precision. Lutri, the Spellchaser is a legal companion here (all singletons), adding a free copy effect.
