I've always really liked Ageless Entity. And built plenty of decks trying to use him; but this time I'm calling in the minds of the masses. So here's the gig, i wanna work Ageless Entity w/ Corpsejack Menaces ability. Obviously I'll need plenty of life-gain to trigger the affect of Ageless. But how to do this? How do I speed up this process? What creatures, and other spells would work best w/ these guys?
I leave the answers up to the brilliant minds out there.
I would like to keep it strictly b/g, using spirits, elementals, etc.., trying to keep it kinda voodooish.
I don't like spirit cards, but thats only because I haven't seen any good spirit cards/combos. I like the soulshift mechanic. Keep your spirits out and casting long enough to get your entity pumped up enough to use. I'd give it some sort of evade to like flying or just plain unblockable.

Sorry Ideas keep coming. I just started using this trick, but Brainspoil s transmute ability would make it real easy to get this on the battlefield quick. And it makes passable creature removal if you need it. (or you can just transmute a second entity). If you have 4 of both cards in your deck. You have an extremely high chance of drawing one in your first turn. that way you only need to wait on your other pieces to get started, you'll always know right where your entity is.

Those are all awesome.
@dwherr- no prob there's no such thing as too much advice. I really like Brainspoil 's ability it's like a pre-made Ageless Entity fetcher. I'd like to keep it extended as those cards will be easier for me to obtain; but I play casual and have no qualms with online ordering. I was thinking a couples Asceticism would work but I'd need a cheaper more direct protector.I've never been a big fan of spirits either they tend to be weak with a draw back. I'm an aggro player so I'm use to big sturdy creatures with trample or weenies that produce mana.
@vadermods- the bountiful harvest is awesome but I'm thinking dark voodoo magic along the lines of Essence Harvest
Anywho, thanks guys keep the thoughts coming...

What format do you want it? As a start, I'd recommend Tendrils of Corruption for point creature removal and life gain. For extra damage/life I'd reccomend Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth (I recommend this to everyone though. I love this cards effect). that would work well with Ageless Entity . Although I recommend giving it shroud or hexproof because you need it alive to make use of the counters and just bringing it back wouldn't work out well. Giving it lifelink with Loxodon Warhammer and shroud or hexproof. These all have shroud or hexproof. I don't know how to make a hyperlink so copy paste.
