Timing issue. The copies hit the field when rite has resolved. Combined with a {lava axe} on the stack though... (But needs {vedalken orrery} or {quicken} to actually do something.)

The original spell never resolves. No timing issue.

- Cast Rite kicked
- resolves, putting in mages
- etb triggers 5x, but can only go on the stack once the current spell stops resolving, making rite an illegal target.
What is wrong in my reasoning?

Just remembered one I used to rock in my R/G stompy in the day:
{familiar ground} + {goblin war drums}

Your having rite actually target mages originally. I'm having it target some other random creature. Then you flash in Mage. The spell targeting the other creature is on the stack and copied by the Mage. Make mages. Make copies of original spell. Make mages.

A, totally misread your first post.. Only now it makes sense... Carry on, it's early days here...

Fun with card draws:
{geth's grimoire} + {words of waste}.
{1}: next draw, each opponent discards a card, draw a card for each card discarded this way.
Repeat for {1} if so desired.

EDIT: throw in a {waste not} for even more draw / tokens / mana to fuel more discard.

Oh man. That's an infinite I have never seen beforeeeee

Not /quite/ infinite. They'll run out of cards. Amazing nonetheless.

Subiskier

{liquid metal coating} + {splinter}
Target opponents land. Exile them all from library and hand. Mono color decks are f'd

Don't you hate people who use your {Karona, false god} against you?
No more with {vanishing}. For {U}{U}, she'll just be out to lunch until your next untap phase.

Being a fan of chaotic decks I like the {Assault Suit} more, but for those who dislike the unpredictability this works very well. It is also protection for her if someone decides that she is a worthy target of say, {Swords to Plowshares}.

Running assault suit as well, but in a 100 card deck, I like having more options. If you are running against any tribal, that +3/+3 is gonna hurt, even if not with commander damage..

{prismatic omen} and {last stand} XD
