The goal of the deck is reanimating creatures for value. You slowly grind your opponents until they die. We don't play infinite combos in my playgroup (local gaming store rules), but most of us are still very competitive. My meta is varied, about 20 persons with a couple of decks each. I know that the ooze combo is not infinite, but I'm not running it.

This is my favorite deck and I want to make it as efficient as possible. Im trying to keep a low cmc. Budget doesn't really matter.

This deck can tutor so much, you always find what you want for the current board state. Constantly recurring rune scared demon is amazing, even better with Mikaeus (tutor twice, then bring it back with meren). My main win condition is recurring kokusho and gray merchant.
