The deck wins by resolving Ancestral Statue with enough counters on Animar, and shoot the table with Purphoros, God of the Forge or Walking Ballista.

Cloudstone Curio provides an alternative engine where with just 1-3 counters to generate infinite draws or mana.

Imperial Recruiter also creates an infinite line for a Ballista kill.

All these make Animar infinite/infinite, as well.

For those of you wondering how do I win with Imperial Recruiter here is a little spice I cannot take credit for:

Recruiter Line

Prerequisites: Animar Animar (3 counters), Imperial Recruiter , RGUUU in untapped lands.

You may now bounce and re-cast Imperial Recruiter and Fierce Empath to tutor and cast whatever you want.
