Deck overview

This is a five-color battlecruiser deck centered on Infinite Guideline Station. It develops mana, creates expendable creatures, and uses station abilities, proliferate, and counter doublers to turn the commander into a 7/15 flying artifact creature. Once active, the commander can draw several cards per attack when the deck controls other multicolored permanents. Cards such as Cryptolith Rite, Awakening Zone, Path of Annihilation, Loading Zone, and Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus support the counter-and-token plan. The main problem is that the deck has no reliable compact win. Its combat damage is modest, Door to Nothingness needs extreme colored mana, and its sweepers do not create a lock. It can generate strong late-game value after a successful setup, but ordinary execution is slow, exposed, and dependent on drawing several different roles together. It is best suited to a casual-to-mid-power table where opponents allow time for a large permanent engine to develop.
