That's not the only part of the combo actually. You'll need at least 2 more cards, 1 specific and 1 with options. So it *is* a 4 card combo, but not hard to pull off by any stretch of the imagination. I'm intentionally being a bit vague on it as a buddy is using a deck similar to this for regionals.
Don't worry, you can post it here. Nobody playing at that Regional is reading this thread...

Oh, like Shub and Ritual of Summoning combo. But things like Flux Transducer stop that cold...
Yes. But it will be a war of draw. Flux again lodge housekeeper. BUT ok, it is a start of solution. But it's too hazardous for my way of deckbuilding.
OK so I'm thinking maybe it's actually Nathaniel Peaslee and Ritual of Construct That makes more sense - no limitations on who comes back out. And if it is done during the opponents Refresh Phase the chances of the opponent benefiting from the effect is minimal.
Regarding Housekeeper vs Flux Capacitor (yes, I know it is Flux Transducer), it does force the deck build to include the Housekeeper and correspondingly slows down the combo...

Yuggoth Contract would be another good sacrificer.
On the other side: Flux + Snow Graves would effectively shut down the combo.

How do you discard characters ? Not possible with ritual of the construct. I missed something?
Housekeeper doesn't slow the combo. You need 50 cards in a deck you know
And a combo deck can not win if the player can't protect his combo.So house keeper is auto include in the deck.
And yes, snow graves and the flux slow down it, but when you draw snow graves, others opponents draw rats, eibon, infernal obsession, jeffrey, deep one rising, faceless abductor, guys with investigation icons... So I don't know if I will play snow graves in a competition deck anyway.

I think he meant Ritual of Summoning.
I personally wouldn't play a deck without SG atm. But I think that's just all about taste & favorites
Yes, of course Ritual of Summoning. D'oh!
