The {Balustrade Spy} combo is usually played in Legacy. You make a landless deck with rituals, spirit guides ({Simian Spirit Guide} and {Elvish Spirit Guide}) and some other things to cast a T1 {Balustrade Spy} or an {Undercity Informer} (you generally run 4 of each). You mill out (because you have no lands) and your 4 {Narcomoeba}s hit the 'field. You sac three to {Dread Return}s flashback and target {Angel of Glory's Rise}. The Angel returns {Labratory Maniac} and {Azami, Lady of Scrolls}. You tap either and win.

Game 2: They side in graveyard hate ({Leyline of the Void} namely) and you use your sideboard to transform your deck into {Charbelcher's Rage} and laugh.
That's what I was looking for. However, in modern it's an exercise in absurdity. The only legal fast mana that can make it turn one are {{Chrome Mox}}, {{Simian Spirit Guide}}, and {{ {{Mox Opal}}.
{Chrome Mox} is actually banned, making it even harder to play T1 combo decks. This is why Legacy needs {Force of Will} and Modern doesn't.

What happened to {elvish spirit guide}?  Is it too old?
It never got reprinted in the modern pool.  {Simian Spirit Guide} is the color shifted version of it.

Well. Now he changed the story and it makes alot more sense. He said they had a turn 1 {Goblin Charblecher}

What is the exact decklist?  Sounds so evil I want to make it!

I have a list posted in legacy named "this needs a name" however it doesn't use angel azami kill, it uses a different kill combo

You can turn it into char belcher too?  Here I go to legacy...

Yup. Transformational side board. Pretty much negates all their gy hate that they will side in
