This deck is designed around a few different things that work surprisingly well together. It is a vintage casual deck (been playing since the beginning), that uses a few different available and low cost combos for 7 different possible win conditions (that I've found)

The boring...1. Earthcraft +Squirrel Nest + altar of dementia = mill to death
2. Earthcraft +Squirrel Nest = beat down

The interesting:3. Laboratory Maniac + paradigm Shift = next turn I win.
4. The above + Ancestral Recall or Braingeyser = win.
5. See # 3 + temple bell = win.
6. Voltaic key + Time Vault = you're locked out (potentially turn 1).
7. Lab maniac + Timetwister + paradigm shift = I win.

The idea is to use fastbond and the mana chickens (Birds of paradise) if I need them for extra mana and use recall/braingeyser/temple bell to repeatedly pump my hand until I have one of the combos I need for a win/con. Relearn from the weatherlight expansion REALLY helps to fuel the carnage as well. I've playtested it a bunch and it is always fun and interesting.

The counterspells/relearns help to keep things at bay should the game go beyond turn 4 or 5.

I would probably sideboard Ashnod's altar and use the squirrels to mill my opponent out with a braingeyser or myself with a lab maniac out (Does that make 9 combos?)
