This was planned to use a new cube containing energy cards from Kaladesh, but accidentally got run with the Goldfish 9 cube. Oops!

GJ

This is an outline worked score for GJ's score of 10(109)

Started out with some Moxes, Lotuses, a City of Brass, and a Mirari's Wake to double land mana to try and build a mana base early.

Lighthouse Chronologist comes online and get first extra turn at the end of the Goldfish's 4th turn. 8 blue took a while to muster. Next:

Just before real turn 5 I'm making and levelling-up two Chronologist tokens per turn so:

After having established some damage with the 3/5 Chronologist for a few turns, Roiling Horror comes in to do (my life - Goldfish life) damage. Horror is double striking thanks to the Domri Rade emblem at the start of the turn 6 extra turns.

Flamerush Rider comes: generates a Roiling Horror token as it attacks which is doubled by Primal Vigor, So there are 3 Horrors attacking per turn for double strike. Horrors re-evaluate their power after first strike damage.

Rule 510 says I get priority after final damage is applied before end of turn so I can use Ghohulcaller Gisa to turn the two token Horrors into a number of 2/2 tokens equal to the Horror's power each, and double the tokens thanks to Primal Vigor.

Wall of Reverence triggers on a Roiling Horror giving my life += the Horror's power thus doubling the Horror's power.

So now each turn goes:

Final score: 10(109).
