This is all about instants, primarily copying instants to make Kalamax big, whether they let him live very long or not is another question. His ability to copy spells when he is tapped is very useful to get value out of the few instant ramp spells. Twinning staff should be amazing in here since you have a way to get the first copy in the command zone, so long as you can tap him. That being said we have plenty of ways to tap him, with lands, enchantments, attacking, and springleaf drum.

The biggest weakness of Temur when it come to interaction is killing creatures, Id prefer not using big x spells for single creature removal when we could copy it 2,3,4 times and kill a player instead. So we have artifact removal and we have Mycosynth Lattice to make everything into artifacts. Fabricate can search it and if you can copy it you can grab twinning staff or isocron scepter too. Obviously Beast Within and Pongify can kill creatures but to artifact mutation and kill 2-3 big threats whether they be lands, guys, enchantments or artifacts and making blockers since the creature count is so low is fun.

Rougues passage and Shadow rift are good ways to get kalamax unblockable, you can get Rogues passage with Crop Rotation and Mystical tutor can grab Shadow Rift. He will get pretty big pretty fast, and we have ways to make him bigger in combat for earlier when hes actually a lil guy or to make him get to 21 in a surprise twist. This does make me wish that fireball was an instant, but copying lightning bolt at least makes it a little more useful especially if you get late game and put down thousand year storm.

Im not sure how much this actually would do in actual game since ive not built it but it seems to flow well in the playtest thing on here. The final thingi did was changed out a few things for cantrips and put in blue suns zenith for card draw and making x 2 and getting 4 almost every time is actually worth it or 6 mana draw 6 not to mention if you have a way to copy more, imprinting a copy spell on isocron scepter is pretty easy considering the amount of them that are in here.
