My take on Maelstrom Wanderer with a semi-competitive playgroup. This is also my pet-deck, thus I have included a few cards that have just resonated with me over the years I've played Magic. Wincons are to generally generate infinite mana or ETB triggers to kill the opponent. That said, M. Wanderer is a threat as well, so occasionally I win by swinging in for commander damage. The idea is to have multiple paths to victory.

In terms of commander damage, Maelstrom packs a punch while Mu Yanling and Thassa, God of the Sea help him become unblockable.

Food Chain + Squee, the Immortal gives infinite mana. This also allows you to infinite cast Maelstrom, thus allowing the deck to go off. Yes, I could play more cards like Squee, but that would be overpowering in my playgroup.

Cards like Palinchron help with the other infinite mana combos in the deck that deal with bouncing creatures.

For top-deck manipulation, Scroll Rack, Thassa, God of the Sea, Sylvan Library, and Sensei's Divining Top provide me plenty of chances to decide what Maelstrom will hit.
