Just curious if this combo would work... {Spirit of the Labaryinth} and {Master of the Feast}
For those that haven't seen the spoiler MotF is a 1BB 5/5 flyer whose effect is "at the beginning of your upkeep, each opponent draws a card" and I'd like to know if you can prevent the double card draw by turn definition being you and your opponents' up keeps collectively, or simply each upkeep is a new turn
Since the upkeep happens first, they draw at the upkeep but skip the draw on thier draw step.
So they would only draw one card instead?
Right. Since you drew a card during your upkeep, you would fail to draw one in your draw phase because of Spirit's ability
So basically darn nice synergy

Exactly what I was thinking. I can see This as a deadly combo in draft and standard!

There is no synergy with these cards. In fact, most of the time they won't interact at all.
Your opponents would still draw a card each on your upkeep. Then on their own turns they would still draw on their draw step.

Actually, I did read everything, including what the cards actually say.
Basically the demon lets your opponents draw on your upkeep, while {Spirit of the Labyrinth} only allows one card drawn per player per turn.
Problem is, your upkeep happens on your turn. There is nothing stopping your opponents from drawing the first card during
their turns.
That is why there is no combo. Your opponents are still drawing one card a turn. There is no "double card draw" to prevent in the first place.
Oh its during YOUR upkeep? Well nevermind then thats dumb.. Tricky WotC
What you can do is combo the demon with a {Notion Thief}, leading to no drawback at all.
