This deck can do almost anything an infinite number of times. I would like advice as to how to make it more competitive and maybe stream line it to be faster and more consistent. Some of the ways to win are as follows. The obvious Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Zealous Conscripts . With Purphoros, God of the Forge and Animar, Soul of Elements you can kill everyone by repeatedly casting Ancestral Statue or Palinchron with enough counters on Animar and lands in play. Tooth and Nail grabs 2 card combos that win on the spot. My preferred way of ending games currently is by making infinite mana with Deadeye Navigator and Palinchron or Peregrine Drake than getting Bogardan Hellkite into play and killing everyone with infinite damage. Another key piece to the deck is Cloudstone Curio , with enough counters on Animar, Soul of Elements you can cast and colourless creatures as much as you want, use Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger and/or Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre and destroy/exile everyone's permanents. There is also the good ole Ancestral Statue to make Animar, Soul of Elements as early as turn 3 with a really good hand and good draws, but a more consistent turn 4 or 5. I've since learned of a new combo that I'll be adding shortly involving Imperial Recruiter for Phyrexian Metamorph copy Recruiter and find and cast Spellseeker grabbing and casting Neoform on Spellseeker grabbing Ancestral Statue make Animar infinite, than bounce and replay Metamorph, copy Recruiter and find Walking Ballista .
