Combo: Pariah's Shield
Infinite damage to all opponents.

That's indeed a nice combo, but aside from that, in general it's too expensive in my opinion.

I use this like a power splitter in multiplayer. Play, hit with cheap burn spells. Hits you too. Bummer.

Does that Pariah's Shield combo still work with the new damage rules?

No, Pariah, and Pariah's Shield, were never "infinite damage to all opponents." Even before the rules change, once 4 damage was assigned to Coalhauler Swine, it would die. Now, if you made it indestructible...

Obviously, rather expensive to get out, but very fun if/when you do. I like to give the pig blessing of leeches along with lifelink and if I want to be a real jerk, guilty conscience. Indestructibility also works, but this is cheaper. Tainted Sigil is also a useful item...

I really like this card. Pretty powerful and unique for a common.

It's like Jackal Pup but it shares the pain.

Coalhauler Swine + Pariah's Shield + some kind of indestructibility + any kind of damage...

My pig just went supernova.

I dont understand how this costs as much mana to cast as an inferno titan.

Coalhauler Swine + Shivan Meteor + Furnace of Rath. Making for the most inefficient way to tie up a game.

pariah's shield, or just pariah lol.
EDIT: Yeah it's not infinite, but its still pretty funny. It'll go infinite with Darksteel Plate though.

I would put this in my RDW, but 4RedRed will happen when pigs fly. RedRedRed or GTFO.

I'm sticking one in my Nin, the Pain Artist commander, 'cause you can only have one stuffy doll at a time. "Pay XUR t: Deal X to each player and draw X cards" is not too shabby. You can tap out and roast him for bacon once, or ping everyone for 3 each turn.

Useful to run in a RGW deck where you quickly put out the pig. Next turn Guilty Conscience and Withstand Death. This should kill everyone. As mentioned before you can also put Pariah on the beast to allow yourself survival...but who doesn't love a good kamikaze?
