I always disliked that Gauntlet of Power helped everyone. Well, I guess this is for me.

That is a very, very large cage.

According to the Kardashev scale, which measures an advanced civilization's level of technological advancement, there are three degrees of energy mastery. Type I civilizations have mastered the energy resources of a single planet, while Type II have mastered the energy of a solar system (and Type III have mastered that of an entire galaxy).
It's comparatively simple to become a Type I civilization. The human civilization, at this point, are considered to be at 0.72 (with 1.0 being Type I, 2.0 being Type II, etc.
), which shows how we're actually rather close to achieving it, supposedly within one or two centuries. However, in order to become Type II, vast megastructures need to be completed in order to capture and utilize the energy of a solar system, where the major source of energy is the central star.
One of these kinds of megastructures is the Dyson Sphere, which starts out as a series of thousands of satellites positioned around a star in order to collect it's energy, and grows ... (see all)

For all those commenting on the size of the cage, here's a bit of a history lessen on mirron. Its suns are actually glowing balls of mana. They actually orbit the planet as opposed to the planet orbiting them. So really, they're more like moons than suns. Yes, the cage is still very big, but no, it is not comparable to making a cage around our sun.

In green, ramp to this, then play Vorinclex, Voice of hunger. Proceed to play whatever the hell you feel like and stomp all over their face.

This is obviously an EDH-specific card, as the format tends to scale everything up in size an order of magnitude. For any other format, I'm a bit leery of any artifact acceleration that doesn't start helping you until after you've reached six mana.
Now, I know someone will come along and drop mention of Master Transmuter, or some other method of getting it in play quickly. To them, I say: why not cut out the middleman, and go directly for Blightsteel Colossus then?
