A Kiki-Jiki combo Temur deck led by Surrak Dragonclaw.

Gameplay is relatively straight forward. Play/cast creatures to build a board presence and hold out until we have enough gas to go for the win. We want to cast Surrak Dragonclaw (or Destiny Spinner) ASAP so our creatures are uncounterable.

Counter magic such as Pyroblast, Mana Leak, Disdainful Stroke & Glen Elendra Archmage help keep our opponents at bay.

Spells like Bolt Bend, Blossoming Defense, Display of Dominance and Veil of Summer help protect our creatures (namely Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker), when we decide to pull the trigger.

COMBO:

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker is the game here, with Splinter Twin as a backup OR just good old creature bash.

We use our various tutor spells to help search for our wins; Things like Shared Summons, Imperial Recruiter, Weird Harvest, Finale of Devastation and Tooth and Nail, all help to get the creatures we need.

We look for Bounding Krasis, Corridor Monitor, Pestermite or Hyrax Tower Scout - if Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker has been killed (ideally we protect him), Splinter Twin works with any of the above creatures. Eternal Witness and Greenwarden of Murasa can bring him back from the bin if he get's killed.

This deck is a 'Win out of nowhere deck' and can utilise the creature untap ability to equal (building up a bigger board state), or net us mana. Tapping a Somberwald Sage or Bloom Tender for 3 mana, then playing a Corridor Monitor for 2 mana and untapping any of the above gives us access to 4 more creature mana. Play more creatures. The Great Henge is not only a good source of mana, but a fantastic draw engine as well. Similiarly, Shaman of the Great Hunt is a reliable draw engine - albeit the cost - as well as the perk of making our creatures bigger on damage.

If Viven, Monster's Advocate is on the battlefield, we can -2 it, play Woodland Bellower - on the CAST, Vivien's trigger goes on the stack and we search for Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker onto the battlefield - then Woodland Bellower's ETB effect triggers, and we can search for either Hyrax Tower Scout or Bounding Krasis and (hopefully) win the game, creating infinite 3/3's and smash face.
