Combos Utilizing Festering-Wound

drop one in the middle of an 8 player game.

first play bridge. second play skull cap to discard quickly. then use skull cap to draw until you get words of war and/or festering wound. use war and deal to to oppenent. try to play wound before war

cast the saurian then coalition flag. when an opponent gains control of the saurian, play festering wound on it. with luck it can keep passing hands, damaging many players.

Since the creatures are all going to sit there for a while doing nothing, why not have them do a lot of damage to their owner (unless he kills his own creature)

cast sleeping agent then torment it (it is now a 0/3). every turn add an infection counter for additional opponent life loss

Play humility and festering wound. Every turn clear the board. And you don't have to worry about haste

Cast the Festering Wound on an enemy creature. Your opponent now has a cumulative upkeep on life. Cast Gaseous Form to stop damage from that creature and the Robe so he can't kill it.
