Winning Games

The overall Goal is to Deck yourself and win with Laboratory Maniac or Jace, Wielder of Mysteries on the field. However, if things do not go your way, you have access to plenty of combos and spells to help facilitate your wincons.

I still have lots of testing to do with all the new cards I added. I am still looking for advice and will be adding key cards from the new Theros set like Thassa's Oracle to facilitate the fast win gameplay I have in mind for this deck.
