This is based on an old "burn" deck I had. The point is to burn your opponent to death with a single copy of Hornet Sting. This version has a total of 3 different wincons (one of which is Hornet Sting)

Here's how the deck works. You'll need to play it a few times to understand how it flows.

Jeskai Ascendancy + 2 Birds of Paradise. Produce 2 mana with non-creature spell, then draw via Ascendancy and discard creatures, lands, or the most useless card in your hand for the current situation. The goal here is to draw through your entire library. Remember that you will only lose from having to draw a card while there are no cards left in your library and that the draw from Ascendancy is optional. You can also Dig through Time with less than 7 cards (or even less than 2) cards without losing.

Once you have an empty library, there are 3 ways to win:

1.) Burn: Use Stream of Consciousness to shuffle your single copy of Hornet Sting,Meditate, your second Stream of Consciousness, and a Lotus Petal (or tutor for instant-speed win) into your library. Draw these cards with a second Meditate in hand. Cast Hornet Sting and your other spell, cracking the petal if applicable, and repeat.

2.) MIll: Same as above, except use some combination of Words of Wisdom, Meditate, and Lotus Petal.

3.) Just Attack: Simply swing with a huge Birds of Paradise.
