Ancestral statue: The deck(But not Animar). (All assumes you've done 4 dmg total with Rakdos out.

Ancestral Statue + Aetherflux Reservoir = Death Star cannon the board.

Ancestral Statue + Grapeshot/Tendrils of Agony = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Purphoros, God of the Forge = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Impact Tremors = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Nettle Drone = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Flayer Drone = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Reckless Fireweaver = Ping the board.

Ancestral Statue + Alter of the Brood = Mill the board.

Alt win(if something happens to Ancestral Statue and you can't get it from the grave):This is what Mass Hysteria and Burst of Speed are for. We rebound to a default kill them with every big thing strat, or at least make them sac their entire board.

It is incredibly easy to still blow people up with Aetherflux Reservoir or storm off with Tendrils of Agony with the number of things you can cast for free and the ease of drawing enough cards to let you keep the numbers going up.

What to do:If you don't have Ancestral Statue but you do have a combo piece for him, tutor for him with whatever can get him.

If you don't have Ancestral Statue OR a combo piece, get the combo piece first because most of them (The ones that trigger on casting colorless spells) still synergies with half the deck and we have more ways to tutor for a colorless spell than a non-colorless spell.
