fleshbag tribal, give em' the ol' squeeze and don't let their sticky creatures stick. Tuned back to not be cedh, there are no insta-win stuff, but you can insta-kill one player and you can set up a close to unloseable boardstate decently fast. Notably, I’ve excluded a necrotic ooze combo that lets you win the turn you cast buried alive, as well as the standard mikaeus/triskelion setup.

Early game

• the goal is to consistently cast Gyrus with 4 counters on turn 3, because this lets you reanimate mainly all the fleshbags as well as Phyrexian Delver and Young Necromancer. The only other things worth reanimating for a single combat are Sidisi, Undead Vizier, Massacre Girl, and Sundering Titan, so it's good to spend extra mana on other things if you have more than 4. Optimal start is turn 1 mana dork, turn 2 fleshbag effect, turn 3 Gyrus, turn 4 fleshbag again.

• Fleshbag Marauder, Demon's Disciple, Merciless Executioner, Plaguecrafter, Lokhust Heavy Destroyer, Rankle, Master of Pranks should keep your opponents from sticking any creatures. Garza's Assassin is a less wide but more versatile version that can be popped on an opponents turn and then reused on yours

• Stitcher's Supplier, Vile Entomber, corpse connoiseur, Satyr Wayfinder, Dockside Extortionist, Phyrexian Delver, Young Necromancer and Nekrataal can be sacced to the second fleshbag trigger to be used next turn with Gyrus

Winning

• Reanimating Master of Cruelties gets around the 'attack alone' clause, so if someone is open you can attack them with gyrus, reanimate master, put them to 1 life, and then kill them with damage from Gyrus

• with Buried Alive you can find Phyrexian Delver/Young Necromancer, Sheoldred, Whispering One, and any big creature I just happen to have It That Betrays, Void Winnower, and maybe Tergrid, God of Fright  , Sire Of Insanity, or Sundering Titan depending on boardstate. gyrus gets reanimator gets sheoldred gets the big guy next turn

• on average, it takes six turns to can insta-kill one player with Master of Cruelties or get both sheoldred and it that betrays on the field
