I love the whole theme of coming back stronger and stronger, so it was only a matter of time before I decided to go ahead and make a Prossh, skyraider of kher deck, but i digress.
What are some brutal cards that synergize well with Prossh that are often unheard of or most people are unaware of? For example phyrexian altar lets you get prossh out for free assuming you sac the tokens, Mana echoes turns into an insane mana rock (Kessig wolf run anybody?), Shivan harvest becomes a seriously annoying source of land hate and cards like mass mutiny et al. have no real drawbacks because you just sac the stolen creature to Prossh's ability to name a few. I guess I'm asking for the hidden secret tech thats actually highly efficient with prossh that aren't as obvious auto-includes like food chain, gaea's cradle and skullclamp for example. Thanks in advance
Prossh is pretty straight forward. Most cards that work well with him are the cards that just generally work in token strategies. If he made tokens of a more relevant type there'd be more, but Prossh is a pretty typical token commander.
Perilous Forays just feels so good if you get the train going. Ashnod's Altar and/or Earthcraft makes this better, as you can sacrifice 1 Kobold to get 2 mana, then sacrifice 2 Kobalds for two lands. Once this is going then you'll always have more mana than you need to keep casting Prossh.
Essence Harvest is a carry over from my Kresh deck that still manages to be effective. Usually it is cast for X=11 at minimum, but casting for X=20+ is a huge swing.

In the Web of War turns a 6 mana Prossh into 19 power. Confusion in the Ranks turns him into a mass creature theft. Deathpact does its thing. Disappointingly, it's really straight forward.

"Tech" cards I run in Prossh are (meaning cards that might not be in everyone's list): Perilous Forays, Earthcraft, Cryptolith Rite
