I love it. so much chaos. I know that there are more cards that continuously switch between players which might be fun to add. if I remember what they are i'll suggest them. anyways good luck causing chaos in your playgroup.

Well, it has certainly caused chaos in my play testing. Actually, I'd appreciate help on this. If Confusion in the Ranks is on the battlefield, and Obzedat, Ghost Council enters the battlefield, he gets exchanged with another creature if possible. But who then controls the life drain and gain? Does the person who originally controlled Obzedat still get the life gain, or does the person who obtained control of Obzedat after the exchange get the life gain trigger as well?

that's a tough one as they are both enter the battlefield abilities. I guess it depends on the order of the stack. i'll ask my friend the next we play together. he's really good when it comes to rulings and is our "judge" in my playgroup. also check online because sometimes the specific rulings can be found via a quick google search.

from what my friend says the player who plays Obzedat, Ghost Council get's the abilities. it then get's sawpped to another player. if Obzedat, Ghost Council get's exiled via it's second ability it will go back to the card owners field (next upkeep), activate it's first abilitie again and then be swapped again.

I hope that helped.

Thieves' Auction is hilarious when an opponent has a big board presence.

Made another change, to put in Bearer of the Heavens in exchange for Pathrazer of Ulamog . Seems to me to be a better fit than that giant Eldrazi

A Mage after my own heart here. If you want truely uncontrollable, wacky madness, then throw out a Knowledge Pool before laying down the possibility storm. I'll leave it up to you to figure out how that situation works out.

Am I right in thinking that with both of them out, this would happen?

Cast Fact or Fiction from my handPossibility Storm triggers to exile Fact or Fiction ,

Knowledge Pool triggers to exile Fact or Fiction .

I choose to exile it to Knowledge Pool 's trigger, then cast a card exiled with Knowledge Pool from exile.

Possibility Storm resumes, I reveal cards from the top of my library until I reveal one that shares a card type with the spell I cast from my hand, and then cast that one for free..

I have learned that it is one resolves completely or the other. I have to declare which one resolves, and then the other one does not apply. I've included the card too, btw

Tyrant of Discord could be fun in here especially with clone spells

June 11, 2014 7:29 p.m.

what about cards from unhinged like Yet Another AEther Vortex ??

June 14, 2014 4:35 p.m.

Chancellor of the Spires could be a good fit in here... I really want a deck like this now...

I have a Chancellor of the Spires , it might be worth taking a look at.

You need Goblin Game for the lulz

nyctophasm says... #16

As I said in the description, Goblin Game is not happening. I've looked at that card, and that would break something, possibly a friend's sanity, maybe my own head.

Well this isnt cahotic but its pretty funny.

Djinn Illuminatus + Pact of the Titan + Warstorm Surge

I have to admit, that is a fabulous interaction! I need to look into it. Although, I'm also looking into how to include Aggressive Mining , but first I need a better and more consistent way to Donate it, as it were.

S733L says... #19

You wont play Goblin Game , but how about Eye of the Storm ? that card is so mind boggling, ESPECIALLY with Hive Mind or one of the other enchantments in play.

Arcled says... #20

Aggresive mining is well used with Zedruu the Greathearted

Daring Thief would work in your deck

nyctophasm says... #22

Okay, now I really want a Eye of the Storm ... However, Daring Thief might require me to have something like a redundancy on Rogue's Passage to ensure that I had a chance to really use the inspired.

And S733L, imagine this with Eye of the Storm out with Hive Mind - Casting Scrambleverse ! Round and round the little ball goes, and where it lands nobody knows...

A few weeks ago in my zedruu deck, I had Eye of the Storm out with 8 spells under it, two tutors, three land tutors, Scrambleverse , and some random card draw. It turned a 1hr game into a 4hr game... but it sure was funny.

I also regularly get Knowledge Pool and Shared Fate out at the same time... Chaos at it's finest.

This is madness and I love it

for extra chaos may I suggest Worldgorger Dragon ? to combo with your Warp World ? or maybe a few board wipes like Mizzium Mortars and World Slayer
