Araumi PDH

Encore-ing Gary, with nothing else in play but Araumi, drains each opponent for 21 life, while you gain 63.

If you Encore a Floating-Dream Zubera in the second main, and let them all die together, you draw 9 cards. Ashen-Skin Zubera makes your opponents discard 9 (total, not 9 each).

Vengeful Dead works like the Zuberas, where they all see each other die, so you get 9 triggers.

If you Encore Kalastria Healer, all three of them see each other EtB, so you get nine lifedrain triggers. Each opponent loses 9 life, you gain 9 life. Each copy of Halimar Excavator triggers 3 times for 3 cards each, to mill yourself for 27.

Encore-ing Death's-Head Buzzard gives the board -3/-3, which is a real good wipe in Pauper. Araumi survives. Encore-ing Fleshbag Marauder is also a pretty good way to clear boards.

Three Grim Guardians will drain your opponents for 9.

Encore-ing a Teardrop Kami gets you three bonus Encore's that turn.

If you encore Kalastria Healer then Halimar Excavator , you drain each opponent for 18, gain 18 life, and then mill 54 cards. If you do the Excavator first, then the healer, you mill 81 cards.

If you encore a zombie and then Vengeful Dead, and they all see each other die, each opponent loses 18 life. If the first zombie is Shepherd of Rot, you can tap them to make each player lose 18 life before they all die and each opponent loses 18.

Anything with B in it's cost and Gary drains the table for 30 while you gain 90. Anything with BB in it's cost and then Gary drains each opponent for 39 while you gain 117 life.
