Title: Opponents Don't Get Hands
Post by: Pi on January 31, 2015, 06:55:37 PM
{Nekusar, the Mindrazer} enchanted with a {Helm of the Ghastlord}, then use your favorite wheel, {Wheel of Fate} or {Winds of Change}.

They discard or shuffle away all of their hopes, try to draw, then Nekusar denies them their new hand.

It can be interrupted between the draw and the discard, use {Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir} if you don't want to be interrupted, while you destroy dreams

hows Nekusar denying them their new hands? Wouldnt it just deal 7 damage to the opponents?

The helm makes them discard every time they draw.

They'll get a chance to cast Instants in response to the discard trigger, but yeah. Ouch.

Teferi to lock them out of instants. Beware: playing broken control combos can, and will, ruin lives.

You can't have a combo with only one card, nor is it as amusing to watch your opponent figure out what is happening.

you could also kick the {Rite of Replication} to gather an army of {Locust Miser}. But, their {spellbook} evades the hand limit.
