Deck Description

My first combo idea... really excited even though its probably not even remotely original or useful. But I am excited to try it out.

With Brion already down (hopefully also stinkdrinker), get Hamletback down late in the game. I am hoping Wall of Reverence, Path to Exhile, Lightning Bolt, and Oblivion Ring will get me that far.

With Hamletback down, I play Boldwyr Heavyweights (add +8 to Hamletback), then my opponent puts a creature down for free (hopefully big), and add that many +X to Hamletback. I then throw Hamletback with Brion for at least 15 hit points, but likely more depending on the size of the creature the other guy put down. To really hum, I would also have Double Cleave on Brion, jumping it to 30 hit points. And since Brion has lifelink, I gain all that life if it doesn't kill the other guy... If it didn't hopefully a later Lightning Bolt or Banefire can finish him off or just throw Boldwyr Heavyweights at him.

This sounds so good, but I know its super fragile, requires a lot of cards to come down in the right order (but I hope Giant Harbinger can help with that), and swamped if someone removes Brion... but its still fun.

(notes: If I could afford more Figure of Destinys they would be in there, I also only have 1 earthquake at the moment and not looking forward to buying 3 more, I am also debating about buying some Rugged Praries.)
