{Notion Thief} + {Teferi's Puzzle Box}

Your opponent puts his hand on the bottom of his library and never gets to draw another one for the rest of the game.

Actually, your opponent would still get to draw the first card drawn in the draw step, as stated on {Notion Thief}.

They would draw that card then bottom it

Incorrect.

{Teferi's Puzzle Box} triggers before you actually draw a card during your draw step. So what would happen is you shuffle your existing hand in, then draw that many cards,then draw your card for your draw step.

{Notion Thief} would then replace all the card draw except the first one that you drew with {Teferi's Puzzle Box}, since it is the first card drawn during the draw step.

this is not correct. whenever something tells you to draw at the beginning of your draw step, its still after your normal draw for turn. gatherer is my source. from {teferi's puzzle box}:
Rulings
Hide Rulings
10/4/2004   You do your normal draw before this ability is put on the stack.
10/4/2004   If you have more than one of these, each effect triggers separately.

edit: this is because no player recieves prior during the draw step before the original draw for turn is complete. then players get priority and can put their teferi triggers on the stack.

Sardok

You are right, I stand corrected.

{Smokestack} +  {Chronatog}
what does this acomplish?

once {smokestack} has a few counters on it, you can skip your turns so you dont have to sac things while your opponents do. basically a one sided smokestack with a downside of not taking turns.

And by not taking turns, you're not drawing or having to use spells.. While the opponent is. So it's a very slow "mill" combo.

Remillo

The original version of that would be {Chronatog} with {Stasis}, which just forms a lock that's pretty hard to get out of.  However, with Emrakul and Abrupt Decay existing, it's pretty bad, now.

 {Stuffy Doll} and  {Nin, the Pain Artist}

Ducky

{curse of the swine} + {detition sphere}
If that is the combo depending on how much land and how many creatures there are.
If this is a combo plz let me know I know it can be a borde wipe in some cases.

MisterJH

I like {curse of the swine} and {cyclonic rift} or {whelming} wave cuz it takes care of gods and everythig else assuming you dont have enough mana fo kill their whole field, but yours is a rather good idea too! Didnt ven think about the sphere

Ducky

Lol it is what got me to 2nd last night lol I need more curse of swine tho I only have 1 in my deck and that takes care of good as well only if there a creature tho.
