Lazav self-mill/Voltron deck. I looked at tons of guides and primers, but have toyed around until I found a very optimal and tuned deck. Has 12 sources of ramp, low CMC, in order to be as fast possible, and be able to activate Lazav ability as much as possible. He can get very mana intensive. However, there are 19 cards related to draw/tutoring/looting, in order to churn through the deck as much as possible. In addition, there are 6 counterspells + 4 removals for protection. There are many different win cons:

  1. Phyrexian Dreadnought // Hunted Horror with Dreadnought, 2 hits is enough to take 1 person out of the game, and Hunted Horror will take 3, and is a back up plan if Dreadnought is removed or not able to found.

  2. Either of the 2 above + Vector Asp : Vector Asp will give Infect, meaning Dreadnought is a 1 shot, and Hunted Horror is a 2 shot.

  3. Vector Asp + Wall of Souls : Trick an opponent swinging something huge to swing at you, (untap Lazav using Minamo, School at Water's Edge (optional) -> 2 to become Vector Asp + Infect -> 2 to become Wall of Souls. Opponent will take that damage instead as infect. This can take aggro decks out of the game out of nowhere. Training Grounds reduces the overall cost of this from 4 -> 3.

  4. Crackdown Construct + Ornithopter : An infinite +1/+1 combo that costs 4 CMC (2 with Training Grounds. An old combo, but the idea is to change Lazav -> Construct -> pay 0 to transform to Ornithopter -> +1/+1 trigger happens -> respond to trigger by repeating the by paying 0 again. And Again. And Again. And so and so forth.

  5. Grimgrin, Corpse-Born + Bloodline Keeper   : A 2nd infinite +1/+1 combo, that should be done preferably AS Necrotic Ooze . Have Lazav become Necrotic Ooze, or just straight up as Ooze, to tap and create a 2/2 Vampire. Sacrifice it to Grimgrin activated ability. Repeat infinitely.

  6. Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith + Torment of Hailfire : A classic infinite mana combo, used as a back-up wincon. The 2 create infinite mana, pay the x as infinite, Torment of Hailfire has infinite triggers.

  7. Demonic Consultation + Laboratory Maniac + any draw a card spell/ability : Have Lab Man on the field or have Lazav become a copy of him -> cast Demonic Consultation naming Lab Man -> exile whole deck -> cast a draw spell -> win.
