Can't believe this wasn't up on the combo list yet.

Run a few Fetid Heath's and Dark Ritual's and have fun.

With Vedalken Orrery you can flash Obliterator in after blockers are declared on your en-Kor critters.

You're missing Darksteel Plate. :D

Shame this is only a defensive combo.

It's offensive as well. Attack with your en-Kor, assign any blocking damage to the Obliterator. Damage still results in sacrificed permanents, which is pretty offensive. If your opponent chooses not to block, you get straight offensive damage and have an Obliterator remaining as a defensive blocker.

And like I say, flash in Obliterator with the aid of Vedalken Orrery for a nasty surprise after blockers are declared on your en-Kor. Sure, your Obliterator may die as a result, but that's a small price for "x" sacrificed permanents.

Alternately, I choose not to block the * en-Kor, and I take advantage of the tapped creatures on my turn. It's offensive if you opponent isn't paying any attention.

It's all situational. I haven't built this build ......yet. But I'm sure if I did, I would give you plenty of reasons to "want" to block my en-Kor. Quietus Spike comes to mind. Or, on your attack, wait to cast....To Arms! or flash in Masako the Humorless.

Or for that matter, build it W/B/G....splash in green with Twilight Mire and Wooded Bastion to play some Ulvenwald Tracker's and Prey Upon's to force you to "fight" my creatures rather than attack. Possibilities are endless.

Like I say, it's all situational. ;)

Spitemare would be another good addition, in tandem with the en-Kor and Obliterator's.

Actually, the reason I'm being particularily harsh on this one is because I love to run Isocron Scepter/Energy Arc, and unfortunately, you can't really exploit your combo in any form if all attacks are being prevented, and all damage, at the same time.

I'm not opposed to exploiting Ulvenwald Tracker, but once he and the Phyrexian <span style="\"font-family:" tahoma;"="">Obliterator in play, the * en-Kor become unnecessary.
