This is a modified version built off of NivStormfront's The Perfect Storm. Please check their primer for an explanation of the combos and give their deck an upvote!

This is my favorite deck to play, and I would rate it a solid 8. I think it's as optimized as it can be (minus not having a Volcanic Island, I'm not made of money!) without using an absolute top tier commander. The combo is consistent and redundant, and with a nut draw can be achieved as early as turn 3ish. Plenty of ways to dig for combo pieces or control spells to keep your opponents from winning.

Mizzix's ability also affects alternate costs like flashback, overload and, most importantly for this combo, buyback. With 4 experience counters and Mizzix on the field, you can start the combo by casting Desperate Ritual for . Hold priority and cast Reiterate with buyback for . When Reiterate resolves it copies Desperate Ritual. You should now have in your mana pool, Reiterate back in your hand, and the original cast of Desperate Ritual on the stack. Use from your mana pool to start the process over again, netting each time. Once you've built up a billion or so , you can use it to cast Lightning Bolt, copying it with Reiterate until everyone is dead!
