    Ya I have a suggestion. Play the real TaxRack deck.

    4 Scroll Rack
    4 Land Tax
    4 Enlightened Tutor
    4 Mox Diamond
    14 Plains
    4 Tithe
    4 Grindstone
    4 Painter's Servant
    3 Rest in Peace
    3 Circle of Protection: Red
    4 Celestial Purge
    4 Argivian Find
    4 Abolish
    SB: 4 Oblivion Ring
    SB: 4 Path to Exile
    SB: 1 Rest in Peace
    SB: 2 Absolute Law
    SB: 1 Circle of Protection: Red
    SB: 1 Warmth
    SB: 2 Refraction Trap

    Have fun.

    Explanations:
    You play Painter's Servant instead of any other jank because you can stay on a 1-3 curve. At 3 mana being your killing point. Maindeck CoP: Red because it nails Jund, Goblins, Burn strategies.. Red cards. ( Everything becomes Red under Painter FYI ). Celestial Purge because it stops.. Red cards and even Black cards!
    The engine is self explanatory. You need x4 Tax, Rack, Tutor and Mox Diamond. Tithe is x4. Play it. Maindeck x3 Rest In Peace means we can beat Dredge Game 1, and allow us to win with Painter's Servant while they are playing Elfball with Emralku, or Emralku decks period. (Show and Tell? Sure we'll play Painter combo). Argivian Find means we can beat Control decks that FoW Tax or something. Abolish is x4.

    SB?
    O.Ring for Show and Tell/Decks that you feel comfortable bringing a 3CMC enchantment against
    Path to Exile for Elf or Zoo decks.
    Rest In Peace to stomp down Dredge and Deathrite Shaman and Snapcaster Mage some more
    Absolute Law to make sure Painter's Servant can stay on the Battlefield.
    Another CoP:Red because of Red decks.
    A Warmth to tutor up against Burn decks
    Refraction Trap for RUG Delver

    Pros: You can win mostly any matchup with some practice and skill, some luck helps too.
    Cons: You lose if you don't Painter's Servant combo them 2 games out of 3. (Not counting niche scenarios like for example: you beat them down with Painter's Servant, they kill themselves with Ad Nauseam, they die to Dark Confidant. )
