Goal: Accelerate out Kaalia, then Armageddon effect to be able to drop huge dragons, demons, and angels into play with no one else having land.

The deck is fun to use once, but it exemplifies the kind of over-competitive EDH style that I find generally repulsive.  It shuts down any fun for anyone else, ends games fairly quickly, and generally just gets people mad at you.  I tend to only pull out this deck when playing people I don't know too well but who I do know (from observation or previous games) are all-in on combo-ing off or just being jerks to other players.
