So here is a list that was popular around the time people found out that forbidden orchard + intruder alarm did awesome things. 1000+ mana for a lot of card draw, a fireball (now banefire) or recurring pyrite spell bombs until death:
so the combo is Intruder Alarm alarm in play cast Lifespark Spellbomb a forbidden orchard then tap it until have a butt load of mana?

Yes, with Alarm in play you sac the spellbomb to make your Forbbiden Orchard a 3/3. Then you tap it for mana, your opp gets a token and Intruder Alarm triggers. Repeat until you reach lots of mana (and your opp lots of creatures). It was T2 legal, killed with Fireball if Im not mistaken.
I believe WoTC's new policy is to make sure that every color can enjoy the exciting gameplay mechanic of making undercosted dudes and then turning them sideways. Clearly the future of magic.

Oh trust me, I saw the BOAB deck as soon as I woke up this morning. The only thing is that it's a completely differen deck that warrants it's own thread ( I wanted to do it this morning, hoping someone else could take the helm on that).
The only reason I want to stick to this strategy is that orchard+intruder alarm is such an interesting engine with alot of possibilities.

gifts ungiven might have a place here for arranging your tutor spells plus just sheer card advantage. most of your combo is a permanents so you could run a [c]nature's spiral[c] to stretch the use of gifts ungiven.

Alternate win conditions are always welcomed. Even if the spellbomb route doesn't work out. A chord of calling engine for priest or bloodsucker would be awesome.

Dryad Arbor would generate infinite green mana in combination with Forbidden Orchard if you didn't happen to find a Lifespark Spellbomb.

Counter spells stop everything. It's the condom Trojan dreams of making. But like condoms, if you don't have one, you still keep on playing and take the risk. Most of us wouldn't be here if this wasn't a fact.

You would only get one activation off of Forbidden Orchard, so the most you could get out of dryad arbor would be 5 mana in a turn, plus the 4 from the orchards. Forbidden Orchard being a creature and untapping because of Intruder Alarm makes it an infinite combo.
