if you're just looking for an infinite card plot go with reliquary tower

The trick with cycling does not work, because the discard is part of the cost, not an effect :(

But would be a nice trick

"This card is a staple against Honden of Night's Reach, nullifying the entire effect of it."

Except that you've lost your draw step. Most players like having that step available to them.

"If an effect causes you to discard a card, discard it."

Nice wording you have there, Wizards.

Screw up your opponents strategy while you assemble all the pieces for yours.

If an effect causes you to discard a card, discard it,

YAY!

Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded's best friend. It definitely helps his +1 out. Definitely has it's uses in other spots too. 4/5

A casual Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded miracle-popping deck. I can't see the scheme being good in a legacy tournament.

Seems like there must be some way to abuse this alongside such cards as Call of the Wild.

This card + Hive Mind + (Any Hand drop spell) + Lots of players = +999999 To your hated level. From experience. Everybody hated me. XD

Cycling *does* work with this. One Fluctuator, one Jace's Erasure... you pay {0}, discard a cycling card to the top of your library: Draw that same card. Go with that big spider from the new Mirrodin block if you prefer life loss (or if running a non-Blue artifact combo deck, the fools).

Also, stack Reforge the Soul.

How would this work with Null Brooch, as I imagine that 'discard a card' is different to 'discard your hand'? I'm hoping not, so then I can more or less have counters without a real downside.

@BobbySinclair: "You can't use the Library of Leng ability to place a discarded card on top of your library when you discard a card as a cost, because costs aren't effects." From the rulings.

"Discard your hand" is the same as "Discard every card in your hand".
