Trying the Lazav, Wearer of Faces Lazav, Familiar Stranger creature blitz core again, replacing the big dinos package with a Dreadfeast Demon Forsaken Miner recurring tokens combo and a Junji, the Midnight Sky and Visage Bandit infinite sacrifice combo with Vein Ripper to finish it off.

The ideal sequence would be something like, Tinybones Joins Up on 1, milling a Dreadfeast Demon into the graveyard, Lazav, Wearer of Faces on 2, triggering a crime through Tinybones and generating a clue, Forsaken Miner on 3, attack with Lazav, sac the clue and turn Lazav into a Dreadfeast, then sac the Miner to make a second Dreadfeast. Keep criming to get the Miner back and generating a clue to make more Dreadfeasts.

If you're missing the Dreadfeast, copying a Ripper or a Junji can set up the other combo. When the Bandit copies the Junji, you can sac the Bandit but also trigger the Junji ability to put the Bandit back on the battlefield. It's a bad loop since you also lose 2 life, but with the Ripper in play you get the life back and your opponent loses life. Plotting the Bandit is useful.

You have some decent defensive cards with Liliana of the Veil and Bitter Triumph and Virtue of Persistence. Decent criming and graveyard enabling too. Hostile Investigator enables some extra crimes and clues.

I get the feeling that this deck is a bit hard on mana even though there's a fair number of cheap cards. Might be because there's pressure to prioritze the clues. I'm trying some Treasure Dredger to smooth out the problem a bit.
