Saw a list by Creative Combos trying to hypermax out Lazav. Looked like a fun idea.

Running the full 8 Lazavs. Lazav, Familiar Stranger and Lazav, Wearer of Faces.

The payoff cards are the big dinos, but not the ones that rely on ETB effects (since Lazav cloning doesn't trigger them). Tyrranax Rex Gishath, Sun's Avatar Ghalta and Mavren are about attacking. Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant is mostly just a big body.

The glue of the deck is a bunch of discard triggers that are control-ish. Tinybones Joins Up Bitter Triumph Liliana of the Veil Hostile Investigator Fomori Vault Get good Lazav clone cards into graveyards. You never cast the dinos, you just try to set up the clone of them from the graveyard.

There is some room for some midrange creatures like Hostile Investigator to pitch in some extra clues for the Lazav clone, and Hidetsugu and Kairi that can set up some sneaky direct damage from the high mana value cards in the deck. (Breach the Multiverse is a known combo with Kairi that gives a plan b option for getting the dinos in play.)

This deck is strange. It doesn't look good. But Tinybones on 1 discard Gishath, Lazav turn 2, Lazav attacks turn 3 exile Gishath and sac clue to clone into Gishath, pound into opponent, cheat more dinos into play? oof That hits hard.

Bitter Triumph and Liliana hold down the defense pretty solid. Then Lazav gets a big turn and it's a pretty decisive turn. Kinda impressive really.
