Okay play the Precursor golem and copy it with Riku you now have 6 golems.  Rite of replication a precursor, you'll have 56 golems.  Copy rite with Riku and you'll have 336 golems. Cackling Counterpart a precursor and you'll have 816 golems.   Copy that with Riku and you'll have 1920 golems.
Be sure to have  {Fervor} on board.

I think that's right. Somebody should try it in MTGO though to make sure. Sorry if your computer blows up.

Okay I don't quite understand the maths behind this... Care to explain

RTCs amigo. It's a long shot but the math is right. When {precursor golem} comes into play he makes other golem tokens. Riku's ability {if you've got the bg) allows you to copy it and make even more tokens. The other cards basically multiply the number of tokens that come into play to rediculous amounts. Making an army worthy of Mordor. Right up to the first {black suns zenith} for 3 which would wipe them all out. Be a neat combo with effects that trigger when creatures die...hint hint. Do tokens go to the graveyard? I don't remember the ruling on that but they definately die.

I get the cards.
Riku gives you an extra 3 golems. Then you lost me after that. Unless you're kicking right or rep I don't see how you're getting all the tokens :S

{Rite of replication} with a kicker I'm assuming, and riku copies spells too. Not sure where all this mana is coming from...

Yeah me either. But anyway my deck is only a causal deck of 60 cards

I suppose if all these spells were free it would be a serious threat. Phew. I feel better.

Not to be "that guy" but one {lightning bolt}, {unsummon}, or {doom blade} and all of those golems are dead no matter how many you make. It's a fun combo but precursor golem is very vulnerable to removal, so be careful using it as your win con.

One could say {Asceticism} and {Coat of Arms} makes those useless.

{Omniscience} and in response to your earlier post yes tokens go to the graveyard

So if I have coat of arms out without the green enchantments you could make 180 mana without going infinite to black sun only a day like card would work
