Nicol Bolas with some infinte spells and nasty discard goons.

I've kept infinite combos very low and basic in this deck and included lots of discard type creatures. Filth and War Cadence are pretty important to ensure my creatures hit.

I like utilizing the enemy's deck so effects like Stolen Strategy, Nightveil Specter, and Etali, Primal Storm are pretty neat.

As long as they are discarding cards we might as well make use of what's in their graveyards. Cards like Havengul Lich, Memory Plunder, Yawgmoth's Vile Offering makes sure I get to capitalize on their good cards.

Combos:

Animate Dead + Worldgorger Dragon + Torment of Hailfire Deadeye Navigator + Peregrine Drake + Torment of Hailfire

I dig building this deck and seeing the different types people come up with, if you have a cool idea let me know.
