Okay. So basically you cast doomsday and have a draw spell in hand along with tow blue mana and at least two black open. The amount of rituals really helps this.

{Doomsday} pile is {Thought Scour}, {Worldgorger Dragon}, {Oona, Queen of the Fae}, {Animate Dead}, {Laboratory Maniac}.

1- You cast your draw, preferably {Gotaxian Probe},

2- draw the scour, play it target yourself, mill the two fatties and draw the animate dead.

3-Play it on Worldgorger. The combo happens for infinite mana, target Oona with animate dead to end the combo.

4- use the Infinite mana to mill them with Oona.

5- pass turn and watch them be sad

Lab Maniac is the backup plan in the main board. I'm still working on the sideboard.

So {worldgorger dragon} etb from the grave, exiles all, including {animate dead}, thus causing you to sac worldgorger, returning animate and your lands, enchant gorger, tap lands in response, repeat?
Nice. I had to write it down to see it..

I just noticed no sensei's divining tops, it helps out a lot and makes the lab maniac win way easier

There's a combo with {doomsday}. You set up the pile so that you win. Top could help get a DD draw though.

With the lab maniac win specifically, it helps by adding a way to draw that last card on your turn if you don't have enough draw spells to do it, or mana to do it when you have to. As someone who plays a slight variant of this list I find on of the best cards in the deck sensei's divining top

Alternate pile of 4 draw pieces ({githaxian probe}/top) {laboratory maniac}?
