Ok for real this time, recreate the movie Birds for like a bunch of mana.

Ok basically you get everything out. You sac the commander to the altar, Mikey brings him back, you get a brid, and you sac the bird and float the mana and treasure for a beat, use hex parasite to remove the counter and then you now sac the commander, generating a burd and treasure, allowing you loop until you make 67 million bords. Then you just fog when they swing at you cuz the other two players will die, leaving the third to full send at you, you fog and then swing cuz they have no way to deal with that many tokens, other than a wipe, which they probably already tried using. I'm just going to give up if I made a mistake again

Never win another game in Eldraine standard for only 6UUUUURRRRR

  1. Make a shitty Izzet cavalcade deck built around drawing your second card while broko and questing beast run wild because you refuse to play decks without red and blue.

  2. Have a couple improbable alliances, a mad ratter, and the royal scions on the field that your opponent’s mono white deck hasn’t bothered removing because it’s even jankier than yours.

  3. Play the random mirrormade you put into the deck because you don’t have enough wildcards in arena. Copy the random mythic you’ve never seen that your opponent played last turn.

  4. Vastly outpace your opponent’s Serra Angel production, overwhelming them.

  5. Immediately use all four mythic wildcards you were saving for more divine visitations, make a shitty Jeskai deck built around improbable alliances and divine visitations even though standard wouldn’t have any support for three color decks until ikoria.

  6. Quit the game when zendikar comes out because your shitty Jeskai Angel deck lost radical idea, and you just can’t play in a standard environment without any form of Niv-Mizzet.

Make Blasphemous Act go face for 13WWWBRRR and 13 life

  1. Play [[Tainted Remedy]] and [[Mogg Maniac]]

  2. [[Take Up The Shield]] on Mogg Maniac, giving it indestructible and lifelink

  3. [[Generous Gift]] the indestructible lifelinking Mogg Maniac to your opponent

  4. [[Blasphemous Act]] for 7R, your opponent's indestructible Mog hits you for 13, your opponent loses 13 life from Tainted Remedy off the Mogg's lifelink

  5. [[Eye for an Eye]] the Mogg for another 13 damage to your opponent's face

There's another version of this that's even worse when it hits a board that actually has other creatures on it:

  1. Play Mogg and Take Up the Shield as before. Keep the Mogg

  2. Blasphemous Act as before

  3. [[Blood of the Martyr]], choosing to redirect ALL Blasphemous Act damage from EVERY creature to you, basically doming yourself for 13 times X where X is the number of creatures

  4. [[Gideon's Sacrifice]] your Mogg and dome your opponent instead

Tap the cradle again to add three green mana and use two to cast Marvin, Murderous Mimic

Tap Marvin to add four green mana, you now have five green mana
