Got hit by this in a commander game, thought I'd pass it along.

Oloro on the field with Sanguine Bond, then the upkeep trigger from Oloro hit.

Pay the 1, each opponent loses 1 life. This triggers Sanguine Bond to give you life, which in turn re-triggers Oloro.

Rather nasty in games bigger than 1v1, because that is stealing life from every opponent at once for 1 mana a cycle, PLUS an extra from the SB.

Are you talking about Exquisite Blood?

Ya I think you meant to put Exquisite Blood instead of Sanguine Bond. That way you could tap out, draw that many cards and have your opponent lose that much life.

Yeah, posted right after work again. Blame the graveyard shift. You guys get the idea of the combo though.

Now wait a moment here. Realize that these cards still combo, as the commander is netting you 2 life during your upkeep, meaning that they are losing two life. If you second turn Island Sanctuary, third turn Isochron Scepter with Orim's Prayer/Peace Talks/Silence, and fourth turn Mystical Decree, turn five you get the black enchantment out and just sit back, do nothing, and win (at least in a duel).
Or you could just block attacking creatures and counter troublesome spells. That too. No attacking or offense is needed really with this combo.
