Even if you make your o-rings instant speed, chances are they will still manage to get at least a trigger, which screws Zedruu there. That's why I run a small amount of recursion/resilience cards in mine so I can get those auras back. Depends on the meta, but grave pact is popular around here for some reason.
My Lavinia of the Tenth deck is effectively a one trick pony that's entirely dependent on its commander. Accordingly, cards that keep my commander off the field destroy me. My ramp is on point, and I can always cast her multiple times a game, wouldn't have built her otherwise, but permission heavy decks will always win that war.
Sigarda, Host of Herons crushes my mono black deck, which intends to control the board with Pox effects.
Recently my Xira lands deck got annihilated by a turn 2 Ankh of Mishra.
On the other hand, I'd like to recommend the black humility, tainted aether. It crushes creature decks, but you also need removal for what creatures have already hit the board when you cast it.

Sigarda, Host of Herons hoses my Liliana, Heretical Healer deck. It's a mono-Black stax that relies on sacrifice effects (mainly symmetrical) in order to establish a board state (like Smallpox/Death Cloud, or Fleshbag Marauder reanimation sometimes off the -X of the commander planeswalker). Just seeing Sigarda as the commander makes life difficult.
Nekusar, the Mindrazer also is a tough beast to kill because he gives every single player a ton of cards when Liliana's mono-B stax uses a lot of discard to neuter opponents.
My best game I won was against two Nekusars in the same pod and another guy who got hated out by the two. Ended up winning since one died with help from the other and Static Orbing the last while managing to kill him with a Thespian's Stage'd Dark Depths.
