Work in Progress - Any suggestions are welcome

Discussing deck with local play group, infinite damage combo on T4 in Khans Standard.

The Combo!

1) Have Ornithopter / Triton Shorestalker as well as Jeskai Ascendancy in play (all 3 of these can be on the field as early as turn 2 thanks to Springleaf Drum )

2) Cast Tormod's Crypt (trigger Jeskai Ascendancy and make your creatures bigger / untap them / draw and discard a card if you need to to get Gods Willing.

3) Cast Retraction Helix on your creature, then tap it to bounce Tormod's Crypt back to your hand.

4) Repeat steps 2 & 3 however many times is necessary.

5) Attack for over 9001 damage. Protect your attacking creature with Gods Willing.

Dig Through Time and Magma Jet help find your combo pieces.

Alternate Win Con

Ensoul Artifact + Ornithopter or Mantis Rider beats.

Other? Probably need an alternate win con or a good way to dig for combo cards.

Ideal Starting Hand

-3 land (at least 1 of each color, preferably coming in to play untapped.)

-Triton Shorestalker

-Retraction Helix

-Tormod's Crypt

-Jeskai Ascendancy
