Main wincon is as follows

We're gonna 'hack' our creatures and turn them into pirates. Wings of Velis Vel, Amoeboid Changeling, Blades of Velis Vel, Trickery Charm Do note that the first three are changelings so Vedalken AEthermage can find them.

Then, equip them with the 'guns' Viridian Longbow, Hermetic Study, Psionic Gift

Rush of Knowledge synergizes well with Dargo, drawing a whopping 7 cards!

Plan A infinite

• Combo A: Reckless Fireweaver + any 'Hack' + Malcolm, Keen-Eyed Navigator = infinite damage. Note that this requires the least amount of cards

• Combo B: Battered Golem or Horseshoe Crab + any 'Hack' + any 'Gun' + Malcolm = infinite damage AND infinite treasures

• Combo C: Freed from the Real + any 'gun' + any pirate (usually Malcolm) = infinite damage

Plan B One Punch

If you dont have many of the combo pieces, you can go for voltron. After you get the 2nd treasure from Malcolm, you can sac 2 treasures. This reduces the cost of Dargo by 4, along with the 2 mana from the treasures means you only need 1 mana from other sources!

Dargo, the Shipwrecker + Uncaged Fury or Buccaneer's Bravado = 16 commander damage at 1 go.

Tutor Targets

Technically you could transmute for Uncaged Fury and Buccaneer's Bravado but then the opponents are bound to block, and also you're using valuable tutor resource just for the chance at killing 1 player.

• Vedalken AEthermage : Wings of Velis Vel, Blades of Velis Vel, Amoeboid Changeling, Trinket Mage, Archaeomancer

• Trinket Mage: Viridian Longbow, Runed Stalactite or if you're short of mana, Seat of the Synod, Great Furnace, Wayfarer's Bauble

Credits

This deck took inspiration from deck:mtg-decks/cpdh-malcolm-kediss-combo/.

I started brewing the 'creature hack' immediately after Malcolm was released for EDH, then decided to powerdown to PDH, and it still functions decently fast!
