easy combo, get the suckers out in any order. and then watch the elves appear! with marshals anthem your creatures become one stronger. with midnight banshee, all green creatures will get -1/-1, with flourishing defenses, you will generate an elf evertime a -1/-1 counter is placed on a creature. with everlasting torment, all DAMAGE is considered wither. everlasting torment is why I call this a virus.  say a 9/9 without trample decided to attack you, I dont know if this still counts now but I believe that if you block with a 1/1 and all damge is turned to wither, that means the 1/1 just became a -8/-8.  Thus generating (thanks to flourishing defenses) 9 elves! feel free to burn your own creatures friends!  if you dont know what I mean... lets say 6 2/2 wolves are attacking, and you only have four elves to block with.  all you would have to do is lightning bolt one elf (if you really wanted to you could just lightning bolt a wolf, but for the sake of argument lets just pretend the wolves have shroud lol) thus triggering your flourishing defenses and creating 3 additional elves!
 to really make this combo nasty, add hissing iguanar!

ENJOY!

p.s. The letters in the acronym E.L.F. mean "Evil Little F***ers

Attack with an Elf, then use Might of Oaks on an opponent's blocker.

LOL, I have actually done that.  It was really funny watching my opponent become really confused in then simply concede the game as I showed him why i did it!

I've done it once when i was losing... Because he was attacking with a 1/1 creature with shadow and i'm out of creatures... i have 5 more life and i don't want to wait for 5 more turns to end the game... so i pump the 1/1 creature with shadow...

Is there a difference if you use the might of oaks on the blocker or your own elf?  The only difference I can see is that if you grow your OWN creature - you can end up two MORE creatures ahead (the elf that doesn't die, and his blocker that does).

Confused

<EDIT> oh, and the combo is very good and fun.  I have a deck built around the defenses, such a good card to combo with.  Wither is your FRIEND!

I was just using that as an example to show how nazty it is. the stronger your enemies the better the combo is.  plus in the deck this combo would be in I would throw in some hissing iguanars.
