I tap 2 Plains to play Otherworldly Journey, targeting one of the Shrieking Grotesques.

I take 4 damage from the other attacking creatures.

At EOT, the Grotesque comes back into play with a +1/+1 counter on it.

Untap, Upkeep, Draw.

I bounce Blinking Spirit to my hand.

I tap out and play Brightflame, where X is 3. I target Shrieking Grotesque, dealing 3 damage to each white creature, and I gain 6 life.

Done.

In response to the Brightflame, I'll sacrifice the target to my Dimir House Guard (I'm assuming the +1/+1'd one) so Brightflame is countered upon resolution.
Then, I get a Saproling Token.

Attack with everything (but not the defender ;))

You take 7+ damage?

Bah, yes, yes. I do.

Good game, though. I suppose I'll need to rethink this deck a little.

Meanwhile- Shrieking Grotesque is really working for you!

I used to love playing with Ravenous Rats.. I think I found a replacement ;)

The key card of the deck is actually Cloudstone Curio, allowing me to replay all my creatures and draw cards, let you discard cards..

I was very fortunate to have no mana-issues whatsoever.

Another game? Different decks?
