I could land early suppression fields, the odd halo, RIP or greater auramancy in under counters early. Other stuff would randomly get through to make a board, but in the end the only way I could reliably win (win cons were limited to heliod, starfield) was to wait till I drew the obliterate, and cast it when most of their lands were down. A few games were decking affairs where the drawing decks just run out of library.
Obliterate is a little more fun, for me at least.
