Temur pair with Haldan that steals spells from every library on attack, growing Pako and casting the best exiled cards.

Pako has haste, and whenever he attacks, you exile the top card of each player's library and put a fetch counter on each. He gets a +1/+1 counter for every noncreature card exiled this way. Haldan, Avid Arcanist is his partner and lets you play lands and cast noncreature spells from those fetch cards, spending mana as though it were any color. The deck runs few creatures so your own flips also grow Pako, and every attack can steal a spell from an opponent.
In the recorded games, the faster lists used Mana Crypt and Lion's Eye Diamond to get Pako out on turn two, with Mana Drain and Underworld Breach for combo and interaction. Slower builds used Seize the Day for extra combats and chained cascade spells to overwhelm the table. Pako regularly took opponents' key cards, like Mystical Tutor or Ancient Tomb. When the deck hit several noncreature spells in a row, Pako became a big threat quickly. It needed early mana to work and had to mulligan for it. A removed Pako slowed everything down.
How it feels to play against
Mildly Annoying
Some frustrating moments but still fun.
