I know this combo can seem complicated due to the wording on the Chains, but allow me to simplify...

At the beginning of each players draw step, they will draw 1, discard 1, draw 1, then discard 1.

This is a net gain of... 0 cards.

There are many ways of turning this into an advantage for you, and i can almost guarantee your opponent will not be ready to defend against this.

Oh, and for all the retards who do nothing except post counterspell ftw and stifle ftw after each combo because they dont realize that we already know theres ways of stopping every combo, the only time you could play an instant during this effect is after the first draw. There's no time in between the other steps where a player would have priority.

Actually, they would draw, draw, choose and discard, choose and discard.
creative, I like it.

You're incorrect. If you read the Chains carefully, it's a replacement effect that forces them to discard THEN draw, or mill and no draw if they have no cards.

Throw in Underworld Dreams and some Megrims and you have the beginnings of a pretty good deck strategy.
