I remember playing against possibility storm in a paper game of commander. It was tricky to understand at first, but once I got the hang of it, the card added a bit of much needed variety to the game. I recommend adding it to a commander deck just to throw a wrinkle into the mix, especially if you run creature heavy decks

One other consideration for these types of decks is trying to have win conditions that can be cast from graveyard since possibility storm only stops things cast from hand. It's only a minor gain but I remember years ago playing lingering souls and things like that in a modern brew I was playing.

In your opponent's end step, use reflection to copy itself. Then use that reflection to copy itself. Repeat once for each open mana. Then untap them all on your turn and attack or if you have a better creature on the board, have them all copy that creature and attack with it.

Reflection can't copy itself. You're thinking of the trick where you control two different copies.

I've featured it in a previous build of this archetype, but It's a bit of a nonbo with Possibility Storm (they can still casts spells through the lock if they're exiled) so it didn't make the cut here.

At 28:50, do you ever not attack with the Spellbinder to hold off the sheoldred (if only for a turn). Yes they know about your 2 damage effects, but like you said a little later, it's not a race you are winning, and 4 life mattered a lot in that game.

Aw yeah, lock decks are always "fun and engaging"! One note: at 17:18, I think that a different play would have been to not play anything during your turn and wait for the opponent, with the plan being to block the Lavarunner with Aven Interruptor and finish it with the Stomp, and simply stop the Scar Mage with the Magistrate. The bonus point there being that you'd be able to get rid of Jegantha if they played it before attacking and, if not, they'd have to chose to either play Jegantha afterwards or finish the Magistrate, but not both. Then, during your turn, you could go with Fable and Giant if you got a land, or any of those + a 2 drop if you got one, or even Possibility Storm to get the lock and only worry about the one Ramunap Ruin if Jegantha wasn't part of the picture and you still had the Magistrate. Of course, the moment opponent got the second Ramunap Ruin you were pretty much screwed anyway, and it was a bit risky, but I'd say it had quite an upside. Although I might be wrong on this.
