First of I would like to thank Narcinek for allowing me to realize that my last combo was not working exactly how I wanted it to.

Imprint Isochron with Chant, Memories to Mirror, and commence lockdown. This time, once the opponent is stuck drawing a non-instant card, it is entirely up to what they had on the board, since they won't be getting anything new that cannot be played in response to the chant (or on your turn).
The great beauty with this combo is that you don't really need to have blue or white mana if you don't want to, since you'll be using the Scepter and mirror to cast copies of each spell. Hence you can throw this combo in with anything!

Nice. I once posted a combo with Isochron Scepter and Silence with Unwinding Clock and Palladium Myr. It would make you the only player able to cast anything other than instants.

Can't they just play their instant in response to the Agonizing Memories?

Also stunted growth is better than memories!

Initially yes, but they can already play instants in response to Orim's chant. The notion is to get them stuck with drawing the same useless card endlessly whilst blocking them from improving their battlefield.

True, it is not an instant seal, but Stunted Growth will improve its speed greatly. Thank you!
