Stemming from Goomania's post, this is a mono-red way to lock all opponents from playing lands.

By sacrificing the Cathodion to Ashnod's Altar, you get 5 mana.
Use 4 of that mana to bring the Cathodion back to life, leaving you an extra 1 mana.
Repeat this as many times as desired, though you only need 4 excess mana.
Sacrifice the Pardic Miner and use 4 excess mana to return it to play.

Once all components are in play, the combo can be played whenever an instant could be played, thus granting:
1)Infinite colorless mana.
2)The ability to block an infinite number of opponents from playing land during their turn.

This is a really great way for a land destruction deck to survive in multiplayer (as most decks of these types are more suited for duels than multi). Stalling like this allows you to get the lands and cards you need while denying your opponent the lands they need to play the cards they need.
You could also just use this to Fireball everything you don't fancy.

You could do that, or if you were to add enchanted evening and keening apparition, you could make it go infinite and destroy everything they have while keeping what you've got. Easy to abuse, but hard to get out. Not bad though

Another thing you could do is instead make it mono black by putting wakedancer in there for infinite zombies.

Wakedancer goes nicely with the Ashnod's Altar + Nim's Deathmantle...
