Okay, this combo is more an entire deck...but if you pull it off..it's HILARIOUS!

First, get some traproots out...they don't seem like much most people let them play.  Sac them to Lifespinner to get Iname As One.  When Iname as one comes out it lets you find a legendary spirit and put it into play.  Use him to get Death Aspect.  That lets you put all your spirits from library to graveyard.  Leave Life Aspect in the library.  Now Sac another traproot/any small spirit to lifespinner along with Iname as one and Iname Death aspect as they have done their job.  Pull out Life Aspect.  If you have any way to destroy him....i.e. sac to lifespinner or any board clearing spell like SoulScour, you can now kill Life Aspect.

Take Life Aspect out of the game to put all spirits from your graveyard to your hand.  This should be about half of your deck.  Now that you have 30 cards in your hand play Myojin of the Life's Web, remove the divinity counter and put your entire hand into play.  If you cleared the board to kill your life aspect, you will be the only one with any creatures...and you will have a TON of them.

This is where it gets even more tricky...yes, I know it's convoluted and hard...nigh impossible to pull off, but get awakening and hairstrung koto out.  If you do this and you have your seedborn muse plus patron of the orochi (both spirit creatures that will be put into play for free) at the end of your turn, tap ALL creatures EXCEPT Patron to hairstrung, then tap patron to untap the green ones and retap the green ones hairstrung.  This will allow you to mill about 35 cards off the next player (works best in multiplayer) At the beginning of the next persons turn, awakening untaps everything, tap it all to hairstrung, then seedborn muse untaps everything, tap it to hairstrung, tap patron to untap the green and tap them to seedborn.

If you do this right, and God knows it's hard to pull off...it will mill the entire library of every player in a multiplayer game.  I got this to work one time in a 10 player game and I took all 10 players out in one turn.  It's hard...but possible.  Goodluck.

oh...my...god! that is the most convoluted thing ever and I love it! Your opponents (if they have never seen this) will have no idea what you are up to, but they will know that its something unpleasant.

Are you sure you get a legendary spirit when you play  Iname as One from your library?

Not specifically legendary, I'm reading it right now and it says "You may search your library for a Spirit card, put it into play, then shuffle your library"....Iname of Death Aspect  is "legendary creature - spirit" so you can still make it work.  I specified Legendary to remind people how awesome Iname as One is. :)

Bah, okay...re-read...you have to play from your hand.  So if you use Lifespinner to pull death aspect or if you play As One, you can do it.  When I played it, no one questioned...I either did it wrong or remember doing it differently.  Aside from the Iname as One step, the combo stands :)  Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Yeah, the one time I got it to work, I was banned from using that deck again.  On my turn when it started I milled 35 cards...on my first opponents turn before their draw I milled 83 which spilled over to the next player.  Before their draw I did the same and by player 7 I had milled all 10 out.

Yeah, I felt glad, but at the same time...I really didn't feel like building another deck.  I knew I wouldn't have one that powerful again for a while.

Every once in a while we'll have a "no hard feelings" evening where the fun decks are put away and the fur flies all over the place...

hah...sounds like a good time...though, that's when someone plays a carver demon on turn one and you remember why those decks got banned :)
