This is a very combo centered build using Emry. The main combo that the deck is trying to pull off is the classic Painter's Servant and Grindstone to hopefully either mill out your opponents or mill yourself and winning either using card: Labratory Maniac, Jace, Wielder of Mysteries or Thassa's Oracle to allow you to win the game.

The deck also uses many different infinite mana combos to either gain advantage or to use outlets like Staff of Domination or Finale of Revelation To attempt to draw out your entire deck. Combo 1: Pili-Pala and Grand Architect Combo 2: Isochron Scepter with Dramatic Reversal Imprinted with mana rocks to be able to keep untapping the sceptre. Combo 3: This one is a few more steps, but is still not hard to accomplish. You need to have Emry, Lurker of the Loch on the battlefield without summoning sickness and either Mirran Spy or Chakram Retriever also on the field. If you want infinite mana you will want to have Lotus Petal either in the graveyard or on the battlefield and with having Emry out you are able to sac the petal for mana, tapping Emry to get it back onto the field for free then targeting the trigger from either Mirran Spy or the Retreiver to untap Emry allowing for you to then have infite mana. It should be noted that you are able to get infinite casts off of any artifacts that cost zero mana and are able to sacrafice themselves. For instance if you have the cards listed in Combo Three out on the field, but replacing the Lotus Petal with Mishra's Bauble or Urza's Bauble and you use the loop of sacraficing and recasting the cards you would be able to have a win off of any of the Lab Maniac effects with the delayed Draw Triggers.

Those are the main things that are really going to allow you to be pushed towards victory. The rest of the deck is there to either tutor for any of the different combos or to just use control magic slowing down your opponent or protecting your cards whenever you are ready to go infinite for the win.

Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
