Tier 2-3 Competitive Grixis deck focused on a few infinite combos as well as grindy wizard ETB value for late-game beats.
Plan A [NOTE THIS COMBO HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT]:
Find Wanderwine Prophets, cast them with 3 additional colorless still available, copy it with Inalla's eminence ability and take infinite turns (assuming at least 1 player has no blockers). This combo can happen very early, and only has 1 necessary card, but you will still need some counterspell backup just in case.
Vedalken AEthermage can help you find the Prophets at instant speed and underneath counterspells (cuz cycling is awesome).
This combo gets around graveyard hate like Leyline of the Void, and Arcane Laboratory -type stax effects. However, if you do have access to your graveyard discarding the Prophets and reanimating them may be a way to make better use of your mana, and cards like Buried Alive can act as additional tutors in this regard.
Plan B:
Cast (or Unearth) a Thassa's Oracle, add a copy with Inalla's ability if you want, then in response to either ETB ability maintain priority and cast Demonic Consultation.
Vedalken AEthermage can help you find the Oracle at instant speed and underneath counterspells (cuz cycling is awesome).
This combo gets around graveyard hate like Leyline of the Void. However, if you do have access to your graveyard discarding the Oracle and reanimating them may be a way to make better use of your mana, and cards like Buried Alive can act as additional tutors in this regard.
Plan C:
(this is a shakier combo, but at only 2 cards I feel it is find to keep in the deck)
Have Ashnod's Altar out and cast Bloodline Necromancer. Stack Inalla's eminence trigger on top of the Necromancer's ETB trigger. Sacrifice the Necromancer to make 2 mana using the Altar, then pay for Inalla's trigger making a copy. The copy's ETB trigger can now reanimate the original. Repeat this process for infinite 3/2 lifelink, haste tokens.
Vedalken AEthermage can help you find the Necromancer at instant speed and underneath counterspells (cuz cycling is awesome).
Discarding the Necromancer and reanimating him may be a way to make better use of your mana, and cards like Buried Alive can act as additional tutors in this regard.
Plan D:
If you have Ghostly Flicker, you can tutor or wizardcycle for Dualcaster Mage and vice-versa. This should give you infinite etb triggers and untaps, meaning infinite mana is the first step. You have to have a payoff, however, so make sure you have something like Seagate Oracle or Sunscorched Desert out. Using Inalla's eminence ability helps this combo get around spot removal if the opponents know just where/how to time it, so it's pretty resilient, but it doesn't do much so it may be cut from the deck at some point.
Plan E:
Have Burnt Offering and Shallow Grave in your graveyard and find a way to get Scholar of the Ages into play - Reanimate or Shallow Grave work great here. Get both spells back and loop sacrificing the Scholar to Offering, getting infinite mana and infinite hasted Inalla tokens of Scholar of the Ages, as well as getting every useful spell you can from your GY into your hand.
If you have an Entomb in the mix you can start recurring that and round-about tutor every instant/sorcery you want from your deck, to you GY, and into your hand. Also, if you have Spellseeker, which I do not at the moment, you can tutor up all of the correct pieces if you have enough mana back for copies, starting the whole combo off of just 1 card. This later method is the traditional Inalla win-con as it is only 1 card ( Spellseeker ) and all pieces are good on their own, but it is very easy to screw up the sequencing and I don't have all the cards so it is Plan E for us.

-Hero's Downfall +Exhume , I need to be proactive not reactive. Also, the very first game after I added this card I got a Jin Gitaxias into play on turn 2 thanks to Exhume.
-Izzet Charm +Talisman of Dominance , Talisman is just a really good 2 mana rock for me
-Dissipate +Swan Song , it is actually really hard for me to hit double blue and keep it up
-Preordain +Ponder , needed for another deck
-Peel from Reality +Spell Snare , I want to combo off more reliably and win counter wars, and Peel just seems too cute. If I use it as an answer I might not get value, if I use it for value I might have to give value to an opponent.
