Brewing up some serious the ancient one hits...

ancient one + complete the circuit + thud / fling / kazuul's fury

Another copy mechanic from sea gate stormcaller

the ancient one + rona + complete the circuit + amber mox + relic of legends

rona + amber mox + relic of legends

• tap rona
• play amber mox
• tap amber mox
• tap rona
• tap relic of legends

Ok here's all the archetypes I've come up with so far for the ancient one

• fling / thud / kazuul's fury / callous sell-sword
  • powerups: fake your own death, dying wish. Unleash fury also doubles
• flesh // blood, gravitic fury to a lesser extent (4 mana, tho has jumpstart)
• tapped and attacking cheat (arni metalbrow, bereaved survivor)

effect. Grim wanderer as a 5/3 with flash ain't bad.

• copy fling (complete the circuit, sea gate stormcaller, dual strike, galvanic iteration probably best, but Howl of the Horde can copy twice). Can also copy with rebound: Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch
• burning anger
• enlist (balduvian berserker)
• tumbleweed rising (create 8/8)
• crew (consulate dreadnought)
• voldaren thrillseeker (fling-like effect)
• rona + relic of legends legendary ramp
• copy adventure: lucky clover (chancellor of tales for consistency at 3b), edgewall inn, callous sell-sword
• huge creatures: daegomoth titan, rotting regisaur
• casualty x: ob nix, sheoldred for instant win on opponent

list: ancient one, ob nix, sheoldred the apocalpyse; amber mox

• skullspore nexus / the great henge: power gets this going fast. double green a bit rough...

value cards: charming scoundrel, ledger shredder?

gb utility cards: honest rutstein

And finally... vanilla, self-mill with high converted mana cost discard to enable. But you get a vanilla 8/8 as payoff... not that spectacular
