It generates a significant amount of value over time. Assuming it's left alone, it can help put me back on track in case Prossh gets shut down. It helps secure the deck's mid-game on the off-chance that I don't manage to combo out turn 2-4.
It is for sure one of the weaker cards in the deck though, and very close to being on the chopping block.

I'm just confused about it cuz you arnt flashing things in during your upkeep, so the most you can do with it is cast a wheel or something. Unless the mana isn't emptying afterwords?

What are the most important combos in this deck? I'm looking to build a prosh combo deck and want to get the big combos in and then slowly build into something like your deck

Food Chain. That's really the focus of the deck. Nearly every card in the list combos with FC, tutors for FC, digs for FC, ramps into FC, or helps protect FC. The deck is called Food Chain Prossh for a very good reason.
The closest thing to a backup combo the deck has is Xenagos, God of Revels, which enables a one-hit kill on one opponent with Prossh. It's not critical to the deck, but it has its uses.

Just wondering, have you tested Eternal Scourge in this? I'm wondering if it's any good or if it's just redundant.

It'd redundant. You have access to an Eternal Scourge in the command zone. No reason to play a second one.

I'd think it's better to run Faerie Macabre in the SB instead of Nihil Spellbomb, since it's a creature, and usually 2 exiled cards is enough to disrupt a combo in the GY.
But really cool deck! I'll be attempting a budget version of this soon!

Was wondering what your thoughts on Crop Rotation was as i found the games tested that i got Gaea's Cradle ran really fast.

Cradle isn't a huge priority in the deck, since ideally we're winning before it gets too good.

i'm surprised you don't have the other combos in this deck. like mana echoes and pherexian altar
October 16, 2016 11:23 p.m.
what crunabizz said, especially phyrexian altar, it's literally a second food chain

What does braid of fire do for the deck?
