This is how I would make a strong Sefris of the Hidden Ways deck. Reanimator combo. Despite it looking pretty fast, it begins the game quite slowly. I don't want it to run more competitively.

The Maybeboard is the preconstructed deck, Dungeons of Death. The precon lacked any decent sacrifice outlets, like Ashnod's Altar, Viscera Seer, and similar.

Some combos include ways to get infinite "Venture into the Dungeon" procs.

Karmic Guide + Reveillark + Sefris of the Hidden Ways + Any sac outlet. Sacrifice Sefris and Karmic Guide, then sacrifice Reveillark to get them both back from the graveyard. A 'new' Sefris will see the other sacrifices, and get around the "only once per turn" clause. When using Lost Mine of Phandelver, it will net you infinite mana in treasure tokens, infinite scry triggers, infinite loss of life for opponents, and infinite card draw, not to mention infinite Create Undead triggers from Sefris' ability.

Karmic Guide + Sefris of the Hidden Ways + Nim Deathmantle + Ashnod's Altar.

Sun Titan + Sefris of the Hidden Ways + Ashnod's Altar + Nim Deathmantle.

Other Combos:

Reveillark + Karmic Guide + any sac outlet. Infinite etb/death triggers.

Grave Titan + Nim Deathmantle + Ashnod's Altar. Infinite tokens and death triggers.

Phantom Steed + Karmic Guide + any sac outlet. Infinite death/etb triggers.

Leonin Relic-Warder + Animate Dead (or Necromancy) + death trigger like Blood Artist, Pitiless Plunderer/Cruel Celebrant.

Alternate win conditions include Thassa's Oracle, Laboratory Maniac + Demonic Consultation, Blue Sun's Zenith, Venture into the Dungeon.
