This might be an combo pointed out before, and if so, apologies. But {Dark Depths} and {Vampire Hexmage}. Start it off with a lotus petal, into a dark ritual, into vamp :P
This is why Dark Depths was banned in Modern. For a time, T1 Dark Depths, T2 {Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth} in to Hexmage.
As I've posted before:
T1:
Forest
{Exploration}
Island
T2:
{Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth}
{Dark Depths}
{Vampire Hexmage}
{Concordant Crossroads}
{Dispel} in hand to protect
Win.
Pretty fun eh?
Incredibly XD I'm building a deck around it right now, at a loss on what to add :/
I thought you
T1 {Dark Depths}
T2 {Vesuva} as copy of {Dark Depths} and it will have no counters.

It actually does have the counters.... It states enter the battlefield as a copy of it. Since dark depths enters the battlefield with counters so will Vesuva. Sorry doesn't witk
Vesuva doesn't work as it enters the battlefield as a dark depths (this includes the counters). The combo you are thinking of is {thespians stage} as it becomes a copy and therefore bypasses the enthering the battlefield hook which is where the counters come from.

At which point, you sac {dark depths} due to state based actions. Once that occurs, you sacrifice {thespian's stage} per effect of {Dark Depths} (not having counters), to get your 20/20 flying indestructible thing of death
