Couldn't keep up with the deck list changes needed for the cEDH meta. Adjusted the list a bit and dropped it down to a high-level casual level.

Combos

Get Animar up to 4 counters, at which point you can cast Ancestral Statue for free as many times as you want to put enough counters on Animar to cast a lethal Walking Ballista. If Animar has 2 counters on it, a potential winning line of play is: Cast Imperial Recruiter and tutor for Phyrexian Metamorph (+1 counter on Animar) -> Pay 2 life to cast the Metamorph copying the Recruiter and tutor for Spellseeker (+1 counter) -> Cast Spellseeker and tutor for Neoform (+1 counter) -> Cast Neoform sacrificing the Spellseeker and fetch out Ancestral Statue, which bounces itself back to your hand -> Cast the Statue as many times as you need to get at least 242 counters on Animar -> Cast the Statue again, but bounce back the Metamorph this time -> Pay 2 Life to cast the Metamorph copying the Recruiter and then tutor for the Ballista -> Cast the Ballista where X = 121 (free to cast because of Animar) and then gun down all of your opponents. Total cost of the line of play is RUUG + 4 life.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Zealous Conscripts is a backup combo. The reason for using the Conscripts over something cheaper like Pestermite is because it gives the deck more ways to get both of them out in a single turn. Birthing Pod + Glen Elendra Archmage let you fetch both Kiki and Conscripts from your deck, you just need to get the Conscripts first to untap the Pod. If you sacrifice a 4 mana creature to Neoform or a 3+ mana creature to Eldritch Evolution and then copy the spell with Flare of Duplication you will also be able to get both Kiki and Conscripts.
