Yeah, this is pretty awesome. Low costed, too. Use with Leyline of Anticipation!

Discard two fatties to your graveyard with Volrath the fallen, attack with a pumped up Volrath, Victimize after your attack, and get the two fatties into play. Pro-tip: One of the discarded fatties is Volrath the fallen.

I'm surprised how little mana this costs, heck it's even splashable. Gotta love it.

@Goatllama

Leyline of Anticipation wouldn't do you much good with this since the creatures come into play tapped. Sure, you could just use it to drop it at the end of your opponents turn to make sure they have no mana to counter it, but that's not so much a combo as just convenience. If you want to get two surprise blockers you're going to need some way to untap them.

@Pinto331

I think that Goatllama meant to say use it at the end of your opponent's turn so the creatures can attack on his, not so that they're surprise blockers, and by turn 3, i'd expect to have my Amulet of Vigor out, just to make sure they're ready for anything.

This cards ruling brings up a good point. You can summon B.F.M. on turn 2 in theory.
Turn 1: Swamp, Dark Ritual, Buried Alive for both pieces of B.F.M.
Turn 2: Swamp, any 1 drop, Dark Ritual again, Victimize.
You have 1 turn to destroy it or get 3 chump blockers. :D

Urza be damned , the fact that this was an Uncommon makes me laugh . What makes me laugh more is that I have one copy of it .

If it were printed today ... Hell , I don't think i would be printed by today's standards ( I sure hope so . I'm looking at you , Jace ! )

What's there more to say , use it in Reanimator , use it in Everybody mills deck , use it in The Mimeoplasm EDH , and laugh and laugh !

A short list of combos this makes live:
Seedborn Muse and Geth, Lord of the Vault
Mikaeus the Unhallowed and Triskelion
Deadeye Navigator and Palinchron
Kamahl, Fist of Krosa and Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite
Kederekt Leviathan and Restoration Angel
Saffi Eriksdotter and Angel of Glory's Rise
Kikki-Jikki, Mirror Breaker and Pestermite

In fact, you can use this for an FTK with the right hand. Swamp, Dark Ritual, Dark Ritual, Putrid Imp, discard Mikaeus and Triskelion, Victimize the Imp. You'll even have a mana left over for Force Spike

Good without combos. Ridiculous with them.
