Just so you know, {Days Undoing} won't damage people.
Matt Tabak said his triggers won't get added to the stack.

Now, if you quicken it on someone else's turn that'd work.

I am in possession of a days undoing. Do you have any trade things?

Seems like a lot of ramp, but has it ever been too much in your opinion?

You can never have too much ramp

{dark deal} would fit better in a build that actually locks people and then fills up their hand while punishing them for it.
What about {jace's archivist} with a {library of leng}?

EDIT: on {sphinx's tutelage}, wouldn't that be better at home in a Niv-Mizzet build?
EDIT2: o hi, Niv, missed you there in the creatures list....

On {Dark Deal}: it's a strictly worse {Windfall} that -2's me. Granted, it's a multi-draw card that affects everyone and it's in black. I just didn't like it.

On {Jace's Archivist}: Sure, it's pseudo-{Windfall} on a 2/2 stick. A non-haste, have-to-wait-a-turn-to-get-any-type-of-effect stick. In this style of deck, that's not fast enough. Every creature in here affects the board the moment they are dropped. Sure, he works well with {Library of Leng}. So do my other wheels. Sure, a lot of players start of with the Archivist, but nearly all the good, competitive players I've spoken with have long since cut him, as there are better options for his slot.

On {Sphinx's Tutelage}: I didn't even think of it with Niv!! Thanks!!

NP.
Kinda taken with the archivist myself, but that's in a build that goes combo. Less raw power like this, but sneaky things like {aphetto alchemist} + {illusionist bracers} with Wheelie.
Infinite untaps goes a long way...

EDIT: and when looking at creatures, wouldn't  {Kozilek, Butcher of Truth} Be better at home here then Ulamog?

Had that in my original build, plus {Jokulhaups} and {obliterate}. Then I moved to different state, and that play group has "anything goes, except mass LD".
So I adapted accordingly.

Deck has problems with taking care of problem permanents. Mog does the job.
But it's personal taste.

Found a Russian  {Day's Undoing} for cheap. Also got a  {Sphinx's Tutelage}... Will be updating the list shortly. Then for 💩 and giggles I'll be pricing this... Just to see how much this deck actually is lol
