The strategy is rather simple. Control the board with countermagic. Let the good old scroll lady Draw you some Cards with her Fellow wizard-scholars. Make some kind of infinite mana-loop (or just a helot with Nykthos). Take some extra turns an copy the spells providing them. Go big with Coat of Arms or Docent of Perfection   and/or go evasive with Archetype of Imagination. Win the game and Watch your former friends weep.

All suggestions are most welcome.
