Modern Sphinx of the Chimes combo deck. The idea is to mulligan and Serum Powder until you get a hand that has two lands, two lotus blooms, and a sphinx. You can go without the sphinx in the opening hand if you used Serum Powder 2 or more times and didn't exile any sphinxes. You drop land and both Lotus Blooms turn 1, play cavern naming sphinx and a sphere of the suns if you have it turn 2, play another sphere or a serum powder turn 3, then on turn 4 you drop the sphinx, keep drawing until you stall out, which might not even happen, but if it does use visions of beyond or scout's warning to get momentum. Whenever the opponent tries to do something to you just draw more in response, drop your maniac at instant speed (using a cavern named human if possible) then draw for win on turn 4.
