An izzet deck that uses Calamity Bearer and Mindlink Mech and or Fable of the Mirror-Breaker to rapidly create a board that can swing for 16+ damage as early as turn 4. Based on this Bo1 list: (https://www.reddit.com/r/spikes/comments/t3pg5s/standard_developing_ur_giant_mech_combo)

The core combo is using Calamity Bearer to crew up Mindlink Mech. Since mech copies the ability text on bearer, and bearer's ability stacks, you can potentially swing for 16 damage 2 x 2 x 4) in the air if both mech and bearer are on the field. The creature side of Fable of the Mirror-Breaker   can be used to create a similar effect, copying calamity bearer and swinging for massive damage with the token.

For bonus nonsense, there is another sneaky combo if you can get the backside of Fable of the Mirror-Breaker in play with Mindlink Mech on the field. During the opponent's end step, crew up the mech with Reflection of Kiki-Jiki. Then use the the crewed mech to copy the original Reflection of Kiki-Jiki. At this point you have the original Reflection of Kiki-Jiki (tapped), the original Mindlink Mech (tapped), and a token copy of Reflection of Kiki-Jiki (untapped). Now you can use the copy of reflection to copy the mech. Now you have 2 copies of each card. Use the untapped mech copy to copy the original mech, creating another mindlink mech. You can repeat this process as many times as you have mana available. The key to all this is the wording of Reflection. The token copies go away at the BEGINNING of the next end step. Since you are doing this after your opponent has entered the end step, all the tokens will stick around until the end of your next turn and only the original mindlink mech will revert back to a non-creature artifact.

Edit

After a round of initial testing. Magda has been cut and replaced with Lizard Blades. Blade blocks better against aggro decks, and has better synergy with Mindlink Mech. It also tend to be a better draw late game since it can come in and give an existing creature double strike for a surprise burst of damage.
