I just figured I would make a deck where curving out means I cast 40 mana of creatures in one turn, and where an opponent killing my general means I have 40 mana of creatures in hand with nothing to do.
Should I put backup plans in the deck? All the Sneak Attack effects maybe? Probably. But will I? No. That's not what this deck is about.
Should a jank deck like this have several infinite combos? Yes. I mean, if a successful turn is casting multiple eldrazi titans opponents are not going to be happy anyway, so might as well go infinite with my Nettle Drone while I'm at it.
Should a commander that costs BBRR have colorless lands in it? Meh, I doubt it. But I wanted to slot in Kozilek, the Great Distortion and honestly I enjoyed tweaking the mana to make it work. It usually works out.

Approximate Total Cost:
Infinite Combos:
Ancestral Statue + Nettle Drone/Purphoros
Cloudstone Curio + 2 Eldrazi for infinite cast triggers
Cloudstone Curio + Ruthless Ripper + black card in hand + an eldrazi with no winning cast trigger
