Puppeteer Clique and Bloodline Necromancer are great recursion cards. Flicker cards like Ghostly Flicker, Displace & Essence Flux also let us reuse ETBs and can be used in combos. Sage of Fables will also let your Puppeteer persist indefinitely. This deck mainly revolves around wizard ETBs, using Inalla's Emminence, drawing lots of cards and winning through combos, ETB damage or attacking with buffed wizards.

Naban, Dean of Iteration, Harmonic Prodigy and Panharmonicon increase your ETB triggers and if your commander is on the field, Naban triggers a total of 6 times when you play a wizard since Inalla now counts as "a permanent you control" causing her to trigger twice.

Pyre of Heroes is a neat artifact you can use to sacrifice Wizards who have already done their ETB effects, or even sacrifice a token (if you have enough mana) to look for a larger wizard and get their ETB and Inalla's trigger for a copy.

Sundial of the Infinite and Obeka, Brute Chronologist can be used to keep tokens forever.

Confusion in the Ranks might not be the best pick for this deck, but I find it fun since you often just want the ETB from a wizard and can steal 2 creatures by trading scraps. You could even trade your main wizard for a creature, then use the inalla copy to steal your wizard back and enjoy watching the copy you just traded away get exiled at the end step.

Docent of Perfection  , Dire Fleet Ravager, Anathemancer, Beguiler of Wills, Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind, Basalt Ravager and Ghitu Journeymage all provide some alternative ways to win by buffing wizards, dealing damage or taking over your opponents creatures. With enough wizards in play you may even be able to win with Inalla, Archmage Ritualist, but most games you probably won't even play her.

Cyclone Summoner and Galecaster Colossus can also win games if you have a lot of wizards on the board.

I usually try to win without infinite combos, but I'll list some of the combos this deck can pull off. You could also consider adding Spellseeker for some insane combos, but I have not included her in this deck.

Combos:

Bloodline Necromancer + Ashnod's Altar = Infinite colorless mana & necromancer tokens.

Wanderwine Prophets + deal combat damage + 3 extra mana = Infinite turns.

Dualcaster Mage + Opponent Token Clone Spell = Infinite Clones.

Dualcaster Mage/Naru Meha, Master Wizard + Ghostly Flicker/Displace = Infinite ETBs, GF can also grant infinite mana.
