Trying to blend the Proft's Eidetic Memory / Ingenious Prodigy value engine with Raffine, Scheming Seer and see what happens.

I think you would want to build more of an esper control shell around this but I wanted to jam in the double Forensic Researcher infinite untap package instead of more reasonable counters and creature control. There's so much draw/discard chewing through your library that you could instead try a Reenact the Crime reanimator package too.

Raffine doesn't trigger the Memory's buffing because Memory triggers at beginning of combat and Raffine's draws trigger after attackers are declared. But Raffine's attack effect is still powerful. Prodigy turn 2 sets up a bonus draw turn 3, then Raffine turn 3 to buff Prodigy again for bonus draw turn 4 is good. Swap Prodigy for Deep-Cavern Bat or Likeness Looter in that setup is good too.

Infinite untap combo is two Researchers and a Deeproot Pilgrimage to make infinite tokens in one turn. Unctus, Grand Metatect will turn the combo into a draw/discard the whole deck or until you find something you want. Looter or Mindlink Mech subs in for a missing Researcher. All-Seeing Arbiter helps Raffine attack more into blockers and interacts with Memory on ETB. The Reality Chip and Containment Construct help you better plan your discards. Looter and Archpriest of Shadows help reuse all the discards you're generating.

Lost in the Maze helps set up Raffine attacks. Mindlink Mech can get some quick crew taps in to turn on the Hexproof on creatures getting targeted with spot removal. Zur, Eternal Schemer might be worth a try to get more value from the Memory/Maze/Pilgrimage enchantments.
