Just a great play

I had a little moment last night playing EDH. One of my favorite things about playing a new deck is that you begin to find combos that you would have never seen on paper. I was playing Kaalia of the Vast and my conventional combo for the deck was something like this:

So, it takes a person who is possibly asleep to miss the interaction here. But there was something I never thought of using this. So, here is the situation: I have Blood Speaker on the table, along with Sarkhan the Mad (with 5 counters), Dragon Mage, a Dragon token, Akroma, Angel of Fury, Kaalia of the Vast and a Mother of Ruins. My opponent was at about 37. I was just about to combo out with Blood Speaker with the Conspiracy in my hand, but then I saw that I could play Conspiracy, name dragons, and then use Sarkhan's last ability to deal damage to my opponent. 22 damage there and the rest flies over to pick up the scraps. GG.



Pretty sick.
