The deck has a boatload of tutors to find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker or Splinter Twin and Deceiver Exarch, Pestermite, or Intruder Alarm . Most notably, Imperial Recruiter straight up wins me the game if I have 4RRRR. I search up Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, make another Imperial Recruiter, this time search up Pestermite or Deceiver Exarch, untap Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, and go infinite. Lots of fun to win with one topdeck at 2 life with just 8 mana. I've done it and the look on your opponent's face when they are sure of a win and then you win the game instantly with the top card of your deck is priceless.

Nin, the Pain Artist lets me dig through my deck very quickly, especially with infinite mana from Power Artifact + Basalt Monolith or Grim Monolith or Palinchron and Mana Flare or High Tide. Lots of infinite combos and lots of drawing cards.

I also run plenty of permission to protect the combos and some alternate win conditions like Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind or Psychosis Crawler plus infinite mana and Nin, the Pain Artist.

Willbreaker and Charisma serve the same purpose- letting Nin, the Pain Artist gain control of their creatures. And, because Willbreaker (though unfortunately not Charisma) before the card draw from Nin, the Pain Artist, I get them, not my opponent.

I have several ways to remove my max hand size or an effect dependent on the number of cards in my hand to capitalize on Nin, the Pain Artist's drawing ability. Past that, it's mostly just staples or fun cards like Mana Flare .

Anyway, I just thought it would be fun to make a Splinter Twin deck in EDH, with almost twice as many cards in the deck and 1/4 as many combo pieces. Turns out it actually works very well. Any suggestions and comments are welcome!
