Infinite Combos:
Myr Retriever + Workshop Assistant + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Ugin, the Ineffable/Foundry Inspector/Cloud Key = infinite Mana
(+ Infinite Damge with Reckless Fireweaver)

Eldrazi Displacer + Myr Battlesphere + Krark-Clan Ironworks = Infinite Mana / Infinite Tokens (+ Infinite Damge with Reckless Fireweaver)

Karn, the Great Creator + Ugin's Nexus + Osgir, the Reconstructor on the board = infinite turns

Beside these infinite-combos the main goal is to win without them. Therefore i run some "heavy-hitters" to try to end the game via combat damage which works quite well. Despite high the Avg. CMC of this Deck (3.66; Blasphemous Act and Ancient Stone Idol might falsify it a bit) the deck works very consistent and has no problems to cast cards with high CMC. The biggest weak point is to to lose Osgir in the early game (lack of ramp and carddraw).

//update
After my first play test in 1vs1 i can say the decks workds consistant and performs well. The high avg. CMC isn't a problem at all. Makes a lot of fun to play.
