Infinite life and draw???

You would mill yourself out, but {laboratory maniac would take care if that.

So, {horizon chimera} + {drogskol reaver} + {laboratory maniac} = win

Now the question I have is, can you do anything after you've triggered the loop?

Well, what I meant is, can you still play cards you pick up or do you just draw and gain until you mill without ever attacking?

Only if they are instants.

As nice as this combo is, I'm not sure playing it would lead to a fun game.

Thanks! I'm glad I have him, he has gone up in value since I pulled him from an AvyRes booster.

In standard you can do this with the chimmy, {Archangel of Thune} and {Fathom Mage}. You also get the added bonuses of the angel's team +1 counters and Fathom Mage being a "may draw".

And then your opponent flashes in a {Fate Unraveler}. Just because.

I killed myself with him once. Casual four way two-headed giant game. I flashed {Notion Theif} before my turn, then on my turn rolled down {Jace, Memory Adept} to make everyone else draw cards... I drew 80 cards. -_-

Of course this would only draw your opponent one card as it causes you to skip your draw and thus terminate the combo
