How can you make a new Storyboard View Appear Without a Button

I am creating a game that ends when the timer is up and a new end game view appears I have not been able to get the view to switch to the next view in the story board when time expires, all that appears is a black screen. This is the code where it switches view controllers

- (void)subtractTime {
    // 1
    seconds--;
    timerLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Time: %i",seconds];

    // 2
    if (seconds == 0) {
        [timer invalidate];
        GamerOverViewController *gamerOverViewController = [[GamerOverViewController alloc] init];
        [self presentViewController:gamerOverViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
    }
}

and this is the code in the new view controller where I am trying to make a view with a label appear:

- (IBAction)goNext:(id)sender
{
    [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"pushTo10" sender:self];
}

Thanks for any help in getting this to work.

Try use [[UIStoryBoard stroyBoardWithName:@"MainStoryboard] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"GamerOverViewController"] to instantiate the GamerOverViewController instead of using alloc init. Remember you have to set the identifier in storyboard

In order to present a view using presentViewController:animated:completion:, you must initWithNibName: rather than just init. The viewController you're presenting has to know what nib to load (and then control) when it's pushed.

Better is to just use segues. 

if(seconds==0) {
    [timer invalidate];
    [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"whateverYourSegueIsNamed" sender:self];
}
