Stranger things EDH, work in progress. Meant to be an Aristocrats/suicide black combo sort of list. Help is appreciated! The goal is to send creatures to the Upside down and bring them back to win!

Commander choice: Mike, the Dungeon Master: He is a combo piece in a couple of combos and allows me to get value out of some sac and ETB effects. I am debating adding Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots for him to give some protection and have him out and ready to reanimate as fast as possible.

Will the Wise: I was actually surprised by his strength, my friends seemed to usually take the life loss than let me build up clues but he still proved to be a good draw source and good for the grind of the match making my opponents lose a life when he entered and left.

I have tested it some and it works well as a sort of synergistic reanimator/midrange list even if you never pull off a combo. I had one game where panharmoncion, reveillark, Karmic guide, and Mikaeus made a very difficult to handle board state. I am still trying to catalog the combos but most of them are below and more or less you can see some redundancy built in with other cards. I updated some stuff after losing to a friend's Brago list and realized I needed some disruption prevention (added Shalai, abolisher, and teferi's protection) and a bit more tutoring for getting comb pieces as I have had situations where I almost had a combo set up and needed it for an out (added enlightened tutor and Fauna shaman)It is proving to be super strong and a contender for one of my strongest lists.

Combos:

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Walking Ballista: infinite damage

Sac outlet + Protean Hulk: fetch Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Walking Ballista: infinite damage

Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Walking Ballista / Spike Feeder: Infinite life and infinite damage

Archangel of Thune + Spike Feeder: Infinite life and +1/1 counters

Mike, the Dungeon Master + Bloom Tender/Faeburrow Elder + Sac Outlet + Village Bell-Ringer: Infinite mana

Mike, the Dungeon Master + Mana guy + Ashnod's Altar + Village Bell-Ringer" Infinite mana

Sac outlet + Kitchen Finks + Archangel of Thune/The Great Henge: Infinite life

Mike, the Dungeon Master + Blood Artist/Zulaport Cutthroat/Cruel Celebrant + Village Bell-Ringer + Ashnod's Altar: Infinite life and damage

Blasting Station + Reveillark + Karmic Guide: Infinite damage

Above combo + Acidic Slime: machine gun lands, enchants, Artifacts

Above combo + Village Bellringer + Bloom Tender/Faeburrow Elder Infinite mana

Infinite mana combo outlets Debt to the Deathless Finale of Devastation

Infinite sac loops + Zulaport Cutthroat, Blood Artist, Cruel Celbrant, The Meathook Massacre

Sac outlet + Kitchen Finks + The Great Henge = infinite life

Sac outlet + Woodfall Primus + The Great Henge = Machine gun everything.

ugghhh, there are a lot of combos, I am still trying to list them.

Looking to add more and up the synergy and power of the list. Let me know if you have any suggestions or see a combo I missed!
