*Deep inhalation*
Can you smell the ambition? Do you even see the unrivaled greed on your screen? That, my friends, is a combo control variant of Splinter Twins that has the ability to tutor out the complete combo with a little finagling. The goal of this deck is the same as twin, which is to pump out Deceiver Exarch + Splinter Twin/Kiki-Jiki, generate an infinite amount of tokens, and whack you to death at haste speed. The difference is this deck actually has a stronger mid-to-late game in the form of its superior disruption and combo-protection (mainly Teferi). Of course, this offers the question of how good it is against Delver and burn, but I honestly don't know. I haven't actually played it against them, I've just finished it, and have only played against small Zoo, Tron and Scapeshift (won each match). Tell me what you think, I'd love some criticism to improve the, well, pile of cool rubbish.

% After testing against Zoo and Hatebears, I wanted to up my resiliency to small things, keeping in mind Delver. Thus, I changed the MB and the SB to reflect greater awareness of these decks, noting that Fallout can be found with a Teaching. I tried to fit in another Cryptic Command, but failed to find a slot. Pending update. Also, there were inconspicuous changes to the land base for better control against land destruction.

% Well, it's been fun, but the love of my life was far too sweet for this format... Although, it is a bit unfortunate that it was really only banned because it was a replacement for cruise or something. Ugh. Like Delver would've been as good without Cruise. I filled the slots with the rest of the Serums whose slots those were in the first place. The last slot I was torn between Cryptic and Electrolyze, but going on the empirical evidence presented by the poster Gothy below (They're the best... AROUND!!!), I chose Cryptic. I'll ponder on whether or not that was right, and of course, feel free to critic.
"I ban thee!"
"You 'banish' me?"
"I BAN THEE!"
"But we have to do EVERYTHING together!"
"Fuck, well, guess I have to go play legacy."
"We can make MIRACLES together, darling!"
So contrary to how you would normal play Twin, you are actually priming up "the sequence". The idea is to exploit Mystical Teachings to get you a Teferi, and then resolve him. From there, you've essentially won assuming a Deceiver Exarch. Teachings can now, thanks to Teferi's wording, fetch out Kiki-Jiki, and provides you protection on your turn for your combo. Your deck should allow you to defend yourself until A) you get the pieces and B) you get the mana. Regardless, Mystical Teachings can allow you to fetch through your toolbox of spells like Pod can, to great effect, and you are perfectly capable of winning fairly as well, just play control.
The sideboard plan allows you to either drop the Twin gimmick (which is pretty weird... Strong, but weird) and switch into straight up Grixis Control (suitable for games against Delver/Burn, I hope). Everything else is just answers.
Again, tell me what you think.
