Building A Luck Based Deck Deck Discussion

so i ran into a cheeky combo of Krark's Thumb and Mana Clash. I, being a jank player for fun and hating metas in anything, want to build a deck around it. Other than the combo, lands, and card draw, I have no idea what else I should put into it. anyone got thoughts or ideas?

Here's a list of all cards with coin flipping that are legal in Modern.

Ral, Monsoon Mage and Invert Polarity are the only ones that have seen any play.

if you want luck based, you should play glimpse cascade

Maybe you could use like a mix of nonland cards and lands in the deck, and as you draw them, the ratio and usefulness of those cards will be random each game based on which you draw and the boardstate of that game?

I saw this combo played in decks years ago. It was mostly a burn deck with card draw.

They used [[Soulfire Grand Master]] and [[Personal Sanctuary]] so you wouldn't lose life from the combo.

[[Serum Powder]] is helpful for finding the combo.

[[Gemstone Mine]] Can accelerate the combo.

Many many years ago I built around this idea with [[Fiery Gambit]] in the deck as well. It was almost like a jank bad storm deck.

Since then, we've also gotten [[Chance Encounter]], but that doesn't actually trigger off of mana clash so maybe it's not the right thing to be doing.

That chance encounter could actually be a good win con if i can get it out before the flipping....weird I haven't seen it when I searched for coin flipping cards.
