{Thought Lash}. Cum. Upkeep on the stack. {Donate}. Donate resolves. Opponent exiles their library.

Would this work?
Ooo, that's devious. ðŸ'¿

+1 Evil point.

Sadly, I think I'm going to have to call Bombo on this one. When you first put the cumulative upkeep trigger on the stack, you are the controller of the trigger. If you give it away in response, the trigger will still be controlled by you, even if the permanent is not.
Now you'll have two choices: pay it, or don't. If you pay it, the game moves on. If you don't, it won't be sacrificed, since you can't sac a permanent you don't control. But then, the second condition will trigger. It looks at any player who had the upkeep cost and didn't pay it. You. Your deck will go bye-bye.

I want to double check this, because I'd like to use it if I'm wrong.

{Thought Lash} would go great with {Laboratory Maniac}, but that's a different deck entirely.

What about {Illusions of Graundeur}?

More evil points. +1.

BlackJester

{Illusions of Granduer} + {Donate}?  Old school classics!  I'd rather blaze new trails though.

What about {Taniwha}?

Interesting. I don't think I've ever played a phasing card before. I'll see if I can scare up a copy or two. ðŸ'»

Queezle

{Breezkeeper} has phasing.

That is correct.

I'm not really looking for phasing cards, just the one Pro mentioned.

How about {phelddagrif}?

Not bad, not bad. Don't know it I want to add a fourth color though.

Isn't more better. The more colors the more better the deck.

Who's idea was it to make a purple hippo with wings????  I think the WotC artists must have been using too much LSD for inspiration during Alliances time period.

Phelddagrif was an anagram of something. I forget.
