Winota, Joiner of Forces can quite easily win the game out of nowhere if you have a couple of non-Human creatures to attack with the turn you play her. While most versions go with Naya colors to have access to green's non-Human mana dorks, I went a different route with non-Human tokens in white at instant speed. Dipping into blue gives me Cloudfin Raptor, a one drop that can easily swing for 3+ in the air on my Winota turn on its own, as well as Lavinia of the Tenth who can detain all enemy blockers so they can't even go wide and block me. The choice of Paragon of New Dawns combines well with the damage boosting of Resolute Blademaster and Angrath's Marauders. Everything except Marauders and Cloudfin gets hit by the lord effect of the Paragon, and with either Marauders or Blademaster on board the lord effect is doubled (and doubled again with both or with >1 Marauders).

Curious Obsession combines with Cloudfin Raptor to draw cards if I don’t have Winota on 4.

Lazotep Plating and Stubborn Denial help protect my combo and let me go off. Lazotep Plating both stops bolts aimed at my creatures as well as makes another token. Stubborn Denial outright counters a spell on my Winota turn if they try to kill Winota at instant speed for one mana.
