Copied from a budget deck created by wcdorrell and SenorSebonia. Cheers, fellas. Since it's formation as a budget deck, however, I have tinkered with it a bit to make it more combo heavy because, well, Ghave, amirite? This is my first EDH deck and I'm hoping to develop it to become more competitive without breaking the bank because ya boy ain't got stacks for that. That being said, the deck's called Rich Homie Ghave because my goal is to make it combo rich.

Some of the combos I'm presently running are:

Ashnod's Altar + Geralf's Messenger + Ghave, Guru of Spores = Infinite Damage + Infinite Tokens + Infinite Colorless Mana

Ashnod's Altar + Ghave, Guru of Spores + Anything with Undying = Infinite Tokens + Infinite Mana (Throw Falkenrath Noble in there as well for that good-good damage and life gain. Mikaeus, the Unhallowed also turns all non-humans into a combo piece.)

Ashnod's Altar + Ghave, Guru of Spores + Sigil Captain = Infinite Mana + Infinite Tokens

Ashnod's Altar + Ghave, Guru of Spores + Juniper Order Ranger = Infinite Mana + Infinite Tokens

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion = Infinite Damage

Ashnod's Altar + Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Mindless Automaton = Infinite Card Draw + Infinite Colorless Mana

This last combo requires discarding a card each cycle through the combo however with Ghave, Guru of Spores out, this can be avoided.

One can also throw Cathars' Crusade into all these combos to make all creatures arbitrarily large.

I'm looking for some feedback, anything that will help streamline the deck and help it function properly throughout all stages of game play until I can go infinite. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
