I have the physical deck somewhere, but it would require quite a search.
I can provide a list of the cards involved in the project which would give you an idea of it all.
I'd also give a guideline on cards involved. A lot of different cards were forming the project. I had a couple of glint-nest crane, a 2/2 fox artifact fox that drew a card, relic of progenitus, archive trap, and many others.
The key was to draw into the hatred as fast as possible and then wait for the kill.

At that time I never thought of it.

I've used it before, by myself in a deck with thraben inspector, wall of omens, sun titan, and wall of denial. Most creatures in the deck had a high toughness and some draw capability. I played 2 phenax and it was dug up pretty fast. Æther vial and a few counterspells protected the concept. It takes two "swings" with the walls in play to kill them. Leyline of sanctity and leyline of the void are also part of what it takes.

Sideboard would have spellskite, lingering souls.

It won by having so many walls and drawing them faster than even collected company could spit out creatures.

Normally I hate looking at commander decks because they are so damn full of cards.
This one didn't make my eyes bleed ;)

Right it's your turn ryde first :)
Let the lizard skitter away.

Wow, that's a lot of spells.
There's a red lizard costing R, that prevents you from dying of library death, so you could focus on whispering madness.

Ah, I see the unblockables now ;)
Paranoid delusions is the only creature mill card that have ever made me want to design a mill-creature deck.
With many new mill creatures these days I'm rethinking that card. The beauty is in how the card spreads from creature to creature. I wonder how a cipher/token deck might look. Isn't there a red card that produces tokens everytime a spell is cast?

So you went and discovered cipher :)
The obvious strategy will be to protect the creatures and the ciphers,
Less obvious you could focus on creatures that Grant's a bonus when copies get cast. So any creatures that responds to spells being cast are obvious.

Third, your creatures need to be or become evasive.

Whatever it was, chances are it will resurface once the hatred is gone.
Could be as simple as a faster competing combo.

I'm revisiting my old methods to update my whole work structure.

What took it out of the format so fast ?
For me, thassa's oracle is a threat to mill, not one that can't be fixed with surgical/extraction, but one I could need to keep in mind if it resurfaces.

Do you know anything about inverted adnauseam ? Or inverted storm.
It should be a 2029 thing or close to it.
Uses thassa's something as kill.

I observe more than I ask :)
(Another asperger trait)

I find patterns, then I want to know about them.

No problem

Thank you super supermegapanda!

I'm also curious about the revert back to stoneforge. D&T used to win through having a tremendous cardadvantage by bouncing thraben inspector. Stoneforge mystic is an okay combo, but the loss of momentum must be really big. Do you have any insight on this?

I'm also missing the thalia karakas combo, but guess it's not there because you haven't gotten it yet.

At the moment there are 4 leading decks.
Rakdos
Landdestruction
Scapeshift
Colorless eldrazi

Rakdos can be beaten with auriok champion.
Landdestruction will have a rather useless bloodmoon
Scapeshift can be dealt with, with aven mind something
This leaves eldrazi as your main thing to adapt against.

This actually looks nasty...
Modern or legacy ?
