I'm thinking about trying to run Celestial Convergence as a win conin Oloro but in most circumstances I just see it turning the game into archenemy with me as the target.
Unless I can run several cards like Snap that can instantly win me the game with Convergence then I really don't see the point. (Even with several cards the package probably isn't worth the slots but I'd at least like to consider the possibility).
I tried a search for "remove counters" on magiccards.info and came up with 900 results. If anyone either knows of cards off hand or can suggest better search parameters I would appreciate the help.
That is what I think is probably going to be the case. There are simply better options then a 3-5 card package of cards that do virtually nothing beyond enable a "cute" combo.
Hexmage and Parasite are at least somewhat playable on their own because of their ability to take down walkers.
If people are sick of reading about stuff just stop taking part. You have 100% control over what you read. Simic Ascendancy isn't going to get banned just because you didn't tell someone to shut up on the internet.
Although technically not a win I would also consider Divine Intervention. Always takes the board by surprise if you are able to pull it off and being the one to have pulled it off somehow leaves you closer to having won the game then anyone else.
And of course you will want your academy rectors and such to fetch the enchantments.
