Let the unhappiness begin with a combo list.

Firstly, There are so many good utility cards to get combo pieces in your hand. Games vs this deck seem to end or just when the opponent scoops because they have no idea how the fuck they can win.

Utility. Mystical Tutor , Intuition , Merchant Scroll , Lim-Dul's Vault , Demonic Tutor , Diabolic Tutor , Vampiric Tutor and lets not forget filtering with Sensei's Divining Top .

Combos

Hive mind. Hive Mind + any Intervention Pact + Pact of Negation + Slaughter Pact Basically each player casts a copy of either pact. you can respond to another pact with a Pact of Negation meaning the spell fizzles but everyone still casts the pact and has to play their copy accordingly. So in your turn cast a pact, pass turn then if they cant pay the cost they lose the game. but if that doesnt end the game you still need to pay for the pact/s cast.

Mindslaver Lock.Academy Ruins + Mindslaver + 12 manaThis combo seems better off to be used in a 1v1 situation where the game has hit a stalemate.You control their turn. then in your turn you put the mindslaver back on top of your library ready to draw into for the turn. repeat till you can either just make them concede or you get them to fizzle most of their deck then punch them in the face with something.

Mind over matter. Kozilek, Butcher of Truth + Mind Over Matter + Temple Bell So you can play your bell, seems harmless then a Mind Over Matter hits the board and it suddenly becomes everyone draws a card. then you discard a card to untap the bell to make everyone draw another card then discard a card to untap and draw again, it's infinite.But keep in mind the rule you abuse for this is(if you were to draw a card when there is no cards in your library. you lose the game.)so you make everyone draw their entire deck then right before you deck yourself you discard Kozilek, Butcher of Truth to shuffle your graveyard back in your library and continue to deck your opponents.while they are having fun drawing their entire library they have no cards left and are forced to draw with nothing there and they lose. But everyone doesn't die at the same time its in order of their library size. so the other control player will probably hate that Sphinx's Revelation for 7 that was played before.

Teferi Pool. Knowledge Pool + Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir So the way this works is. You have Teferi out then play the pool. Teferi states that (Each opponent can cast spells only any time he or she could cast a sorcery.) While knowledge pool states (Whenever a player casts a spell from his or her hand, that player exiles it. If the player does, he or she may cast another nonland card exiled with Knowledge Pool without paying that card's mana cost.)this means that once a spell is played it goes under knowledge pool but the spell cant leave because cards that leave knowledge pool leave at instant speed. meaning they can't be played. But you can play any spell and swap it for a spell under knowledge pool then the chosen spell is cast.

also this helps as an easy way to explain it if you ever get pulled up on rulings.

1-Your opponent plays something2- knowledge pools first ability goes on the stack removing the spell.3- the second ability goes on the stack4- your opponent can only play spells when they can play sorceries (per teferi's ruling, the stack must be EMPTY)5- since the stack is not empty they cannot play anything.

Bloodmorph. Blood Artist + Phyrexian Metamorph + Sharuum the Hegemon So you play Metamorph with Sharuum out then copy it then you have two of the same legend so this is the rule(If the same player controls two or more legendary permanents of the same name, that player will choose one of those permanents, and the others are sent to their owners' graveyards when state-based effects are checked. This is not a destruction effect, and can't be prevented by regeneration or indestructibility. ) meaning it goes to the grave, but both cards enter and return an artifact from the grave. well then if only i didnt just put my artifact commander in the graveyard, Darn, I guess i'll bring it back and swap my Phyrexian Metamorph for my commander. This exchange is infinite and By definition the creature dies. Triggering Blood artist. You can be a Ct with this and only kill who you want because at any time you can send your commander to the command zone whenever the fu you want.

Hope this helps you make the games vs Prossh while your home faster. Enjoy destroying everyone with a glint of hope in their eye with some fucking atrocious combos.now you can call it. "You're probably just going to scoop".
