He Who Hungers craves some spirit cairn.

I'm surprised that no-one's seen the great combo this makes with Compulsion!

Boost your mana, and start cycling your nifty cards
(like Basking Rootwalla, Riftstone Portal, Folk Medicine, and many others).

As you'll need alot of mana, splash green Mirari's Wake, and voila, you've got 2/2 flying spirits galore, and you'll get twice as many of them. Deck done! :)

I immediately think of all the cards that make you discard cards anyway - like Devout witness and Null Brooch. Combine with some card draw, and maybe a spellbook and Feldon's cane to make a bunch of cards in your hand doable and you have yourself a little army of spirits.

A surprisingly potent engine card. Makes discard-using decks very dangerous.

@ Kirbster: Perhaps, but Karador, Ghost Chieftain has all three colors. I like it...

Pair it up with Zombie Infestation. Ditching two cards (preferably ones with madness or maybe Incarnations) and paying two white gets you two fliers and a zombie. Too bad Overrun's green.

Cycling, Kamigawa, spellshapers, making the other player (or players - gotta remember multiplayer) discard, something that gives you a lot of white mana (Gaea's Cradle and Orochi Leafcaller would work, especially if you had a way to untap lands). Lotta stuff that goes well with this.

@mrredhatter: "Run with Squee, Goblin Nabob"

With what else? Squee comes back to your hand; you will require something else to discard him.

Spirit Cairn is a good card in a black discard deck or a blue "Return target ___ to its owners hand" so that they are forced to discard cards for having too many in their hand.
