Ok so i was lookin at a sight and saw this, im not sure its viable but still pretty interesting, take a look......

Well, let's say that you could somehow find a way to get a Protean Hulk from play into the graveyard (the cheapest one card option is Footsteps of the Goryo but other options are available as well). This will allow you to search your library for a Carrion Feeder and a Body Double (copying Protean Hulk). Sacrifice the Body Doubled Hulk to the Carrion Feeder and go searching again. This time, find Reveillark and Mogg Fanatic (if your opponent decides to remove your Carrion Feeder in response to the Body Doubled Hulk trigger, then you'll have to get a second Carrion Feeder instead of the Fanatic. Doing this will make you impervious to all spot removal). Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Sac Fanatic. Sac Reveillark to return Body Double and Mogg Fanatic. Double the Reveillark. Etc. etc. etc. etc. until dead

Ok so someone out there try to make a good competitive deck out of this idea.

seems slow and relatively easy to stop with tons of cards like pithing needles, dampening matrix, spot removal, counter etc. You never know though. Right now for a combo to be effective in ext they need to be pretty leet and next to impossible to interupt.

Interesting, but unfortunately this probably doesn't "do it" for extended because either:

1) there's a ton of dredge hate around, which hoses this deck too, or

2) if there's not a ton of dredge hate at any given moment, dredge is probably the superior combo deck.

I think it could be semi-competitive.
Even with all the hate for dredge it can still see play.
Run some Chrome Moxen and/or Birds to power it out early, and use the same measures dredge does to get around the hate.
I think it's a viable combo.

i am actually building one in t2.

nantuko husk
reveillark
mogg fanatic
body double

works jsut as well tho a little bit harder to get. in reality you really only need reveillark and body double to do some pretty funky stuff

You can also get Mystic Snake and Draining Whelk. That would give some disruption.

I have to agree that Dredge, Ideal, and Ritual Desire are still the best combo decks in Extended play.

I still think this combo is a little slow and subpar, but I am using Saffi with reviellark in a deck and it seems to work amazingly well. You should seriously consider Saffi Eriksdotter if your going to attempt anything
