Turn three? Basically you want marauding mako, psychic frog, and Shadow of the grave in your opening hand. Don’t play a land on turn three. Attack, and if no blockers declared, discard all cards except Shadow of the Grave giving your creatures +4/+4 (5/5 and 6/6 respectively) then cast Shadow of the grave returning all cards discarded to your hand, discard those cards again giving your creatures +8/+8 (9/9 and 10/10 respectively) dealing 19 total damage on turn three.

If the above plan isn’t available, Demilich and Arclight Phoenix work well with psychic frog and decent with marauding mako, though it takes advantage of your discarding.

The Combo Turn 1: Play Land Cast Marauding Mako (5 cards in hand) Turn 2: Draw Play Land Cast Psychic Frog (4 cards in hand) Turn 3: Draw (5 cards in hand) Attack, if no blockers declared, discard all cards except Shadow of the grave to psychic frog, cast shadow of the grave discard the four cards again giving your creatures +8/+8 and deal 19 damage, and hopefully win.
