jackI made a proliferate[1] magic deck.
It's based on storage lands and pentad prisms (which turn counters into mana), proliferate cards, and assorted cards with counters on (Djinn of Wishes, Ichor Rats, Archmage Ascension, etc). The aim is to reach a critical threshold when you proliferate multiple times and have a way to draw cards, and can dig through the deck for win conditions and play them. (It includes Helix Pinnacle, although Ichor Rats or Triskelion is almost certainly better.)
Unfortunately, I didn't start off with any proliferate cards, so I had to order many of the cards, but it still has a pleasing "throw in everything that seems good and see what works" feel.
I tested it a couple of times at home, and it feels fun but very inconsistent. It's probably got comparatively strong cards in, but isn't yet very consistent competitively (even against quirky decks).
[1] Choose any number of cards with counters on them or players with poison counters. Add one more counter to each card and player.
